24 Nano Tank Progress = more questions

Yet another ...

Been 4 days and all the crabs are super happy lookin! I'm noticing a bit of hair algae on the back of the tank. I think I'll dial my light back a bit ... running it like 10 -12 hours right now. My fish guy has a Yellow watchman Goby that he's had for a few weeks. might go pick him up Sunday ... I'm planning on moving the tank from my dresser to a stand I built on Friday or Saturday. I'm going to transfer most of the water and rock to a rubbermaid container and then refill the tank after I move it. Should I wait to add the fish or will I be ok? I hear all kinds of issues with disturbing the sand bed. Tanks only been up for 3 weeks, dunno if its had time to build up any nasties in the sand.

 

I would wait to add the fish don't want to gave your first fish die it sucks lol trust me. Try not mix up the sand and take out the smallest amount of water you can . Get a person or two to help it looks small but its heavy as ****. Then wait a few days to add fish that's my IMO. The first thing I was told was Patience go slow and let it grow lol can't belive I just typed it for first time.

 

Thanks Dskyers. I'm thinking I'll move it this weekend and go with the fish next weekend. What's another week?!?

 

Exactly lol

 

I'm amused with my hermits just crawling around cleaning off the rocks and stuff.
