I am new to the hobby and need some advice. I have been researching alot and have heard a variety of oppinions.

Myy tank is 90 g with 75 pds of cured rock and 80 pds of ag sand. I have a wet/dry sump w/skimmer. I am running 260w PC. I also have a ro/di unit for water.

My tank has been up and running for 2 weeks and all test seem fine.(nitrates, nitrites, ph 8.4, amonia 0,)

I intend to keep this as a fish only tank with a hardy coral or two. I transfered my three fish from an existing 30 g tank and they are doing great.

My questions?: How long should I keep the lights on during the day? With top offs, do I need to add anything to the rodi water? and Should I expect an algae bloom?
Thanks Jon
