I purchased my RSM 500 in Oct of 2012, received the goods and slowly assembled the unit.
Purchased 180 lbs Caribsea live sand, 135 lbs premium Fiji live rocks (90 lbs were large size, 45 lbs med), and 35 lbs Fiji foundation rocks (these rocks were pretty nice, much cheaper) total of 180 lbs sand and 170 lbs rocks.
I cycled with a couple of shrimps (did not missed it during a meal). Had it run for 6 weeks before adding the cleaners.
