good stuff

more filtration the better, don't just rely on the live rock


look forward to seeing your pictures

Hi there i would just like to welcome you to the site! the reason i have not posted this until now is that i know nothing about marine fish keeping lol (one day maybe)

but as i said welcome and I'm sure you will find most!! people here are only to willing to help you out without criticizing you first,
good luck with your fish I'm sure you will get there in the end and remember - we've all had bad advice given in lfs believe me i could write a book on the **** advice iv been given!!!

you can run a marine setup on live rock only[ie no filter]but id wait for it to become established 1st[maybe a year], then slowly over a period of say 6-9 months decrease the external filters! oh yeah, welcome to the forum hope you enjoy, and i hope ya got an endless supply of cash, cause youll need it with marines

dont worry about your bristle worm ( tough as old boots and will survive the cycling no trouble)
lots of people dont like bristleworms in thier tanks ( very irritating on the skin if you touch them )but they are good scavangers ,
