Hi all,
One of our kind aquarists here has given me a great deal on the LS and LR I will need for my new tank. Because of the distance and time, tomorrow is the only day I can pick up the LS and LR. The problem is that I still don't have a RO/DI device, saltwater, lights, or cleaned out my tank. So in other words I have a tank, stand, hood, and refugium...:rolleyes:
So my question is that during this transition period, what is the best way to keep 120 lbs of LR and 300 lbs of LS from going kaput? Keeping them in multiple 44 gallon Brute garbage cans w/ heaters and a powerhead running? If that's the case, how long will the LS and LR last w/o lights?
Please let me know if you guys have any suggestions on how to do this. Thanks!
Mike
