yet another newbie question...

[dclaghorn]

Boy, I really miss what started out as a great spot for newbies like
me to get quick info from many experienced in the hobby, and not be
confined to the opinions of my LFS (though I respect Rusty
immensely)...

I just have one question today that I would otherwise hope to get
feedback on... I just started up my tank (120 gal reef, 200 lbs live
sand from Fla Keys, 200 lbs live rock). It's just cycling for the
next month. No fish. But (only 2 days old, the water is pretty
clear, just green-ish in color. How long until the water actually
gets clear?

Thanks,
Dave

The amount of time depends on the condition of your
live rock, could be a couple of days to a couple of
weeks if there is a lot of death on the rocks.

Your posting style looks a lot like Roy Tristain.
Have you posted here before?
