Rebuilding after nuke...suggestions?

[Harley387]

I am rebuilding after a total loss. This is my tank so far. It's been cycling for 2 weeks. I'm not really happy with the rock-pile look, but I guess it will have to do for now. Anyone have any suggestions for my new start? Also, I am looking for some macro for my fuge, and suggestions for fuge lighting...my space is limited. I was considering a clip on 25 watt light from home depot. Will this work? I plan to leave fuge light on 24/7.

What did you say?

Cycle with mammals, they are not as sensitive to water conditions.

How are your ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, and phosphate levels?

How big is the 'fuge?

 

[Harley387]

Levels are all good right now, nitrate is a little high.I don't think it has fully cycled yet, I haven't been testing regularly. I'm gonna give a couple weeks more. My fuge is actually a converted Amiracle wet/dry. I think it's about 10 gallons, maybe 15.
