If you can, you might want to consider setting up a temporary small tub outdoors to get the initial green water as its much easier and faster to get green water outdoors, not to mention that you can just rely on sunlight which is free plus the less stress on your fish as well. Just my two cents here

hi cheangv thats exactly what my intentions were in the begining. but the fung shui master says no. i had to get rid of my koi pond in the backyard earlier this year. the location of the pond colided with my astrological chart. very bad karma from what i understood. just gave up the reef thing. just not the same as goldfish and koi. i was told i can have as many tanks of fish i want in the garage :ubloodygood but nothing holding water around the house at all. its all bad for me :sad only one place in the house for the show tank. so hence the delima right now. i envy you guys in signapore and over in aisa. so many buatiful fishes and friendly bros with knowledge. here in the USA only maybe two mail order places with good goldfish. right now i have all tung hoi fish and some thai ranchus ordered from fish sempai in canada. extremely happy )
