    I just sold a 30" AquaticLife T5 light fixture for really cheap and it was on eBay, you dont wanna know how cheap I had to let it go with..
    Not long ago, someone was selling a 30" fixture on here. You might wanna check it out as well.

    Should I remove the two small rocks that came covered in algae, or leave them to spread?

    Just an update...

    Hair algae was taken out a couple weeks ago. They were small rocks and it was better to just remove them. Since the tank has been doing great. I tested my water and ammonia was down to zero so I added my first living things. I now have 5 blue leg hermits and a turbo snail. They have been very active and seem to be doing well.

    Hopefully in a couple weeks we will be ready to start adding the first fish. I am trying to take things slow, nothing good happens fast. I am also looking forward to getting a new lighting system so we can have some mushrooms/soft corals.
