I mean just add some rocks not coral and 2 or 3 marine fishes.. don want very intense coral heavy high maintences set up.

Cycling procedure is the same as with any marine tank.

If the rocks are not cured, they should produce enough die-offs to kickoff the cycling process. If not, you can just add a small piece of market prawn.

Good also lah , lower maintenance .

But FOWLR also with LRs . Probably some nice scaping plus fish will be cool

Looking forward for your postings!

Iq5 really too challenging .

FOWLR best to go 3ft or higher.. you'll tend to overstock and 2ft is really small but still better! hope to see your tank soon!

When your tank crash(OS crash), its time to cleanup(reformat hard drive) and setup(install OS) again and add new livestock(re-install software).
