Where The Fun Starts
A little bit of an update of the past 2 weeks.

The tank cycled quite quickly, within 12 days I had all my ammonia, nitrite and nitrate down to 0.

Added the clean up crew:

- 2 Nassarius snails,
- 1 massive Astrea snail (will probably return it)
- 4 turbo snails
- 2 peppermint shrimps

Just bought a Tunze Care Magnet Nano 220.010, and that thing is great, my tank looks crystal clear.

I should also receive my ATO from Reefload. It's got a specific integration for the Fluval Edge tank and seems pretty neat. Great customer support also.

I went to visit for the first time Gallery Aquatica and this place is quite nice with friendly people. Only open on the week end tho, but they do Facebook sales with really good prices.

Came back home with new friends:

I will have to probably relocate the last one, but I was happy that they instantly opened up in my tank, that was a good sign of good water.

So everything is going well. I won't stock much until I receive my MP3 from @Neillw as I don't have much flow, nor a great light system right now.

Cheers.
