    Hey there, new to the forum and new to saltwater, my wife and I (honestly mostly her) have been doing freshwater for a year now and I have decided to try my havd at sw. Just started cycling a hob for my qt, I dont have a dt yet but I am looking for one. I want to do a 90g fowlr with sump. Thanks for all the awesome info on this forum, its been a huge help with planning it out

    Not too sure yet, I kinda want a clown fish (everyone needs a nemo right?) Maybe a powder blue tang. I haven't done a lot of research on fish yet, I want to make sure I have my bases covered when setting up the tank. Should I be grtting fish or a cleanup crew first?

    Get a clean up crew first, don't get too many, there is not much to eat in new tanks. If the cuc is doing fine after a weeks time, ammonia and nitrites are undetectable you can start by adding a few fish at time. Just allow the biological filter some time to catch up between additions of fish.
