Reef and Marine Fish Forum

Just sent some of my water off to tank tests to see how my test kits measure up.

Looking forward to receiving the results.

Anyone else used them?

Ok i will start by letting you see my first marine tank that i got last year a red sea max.

Thats the best i can do as i can not get the pics to open up on the page :?:

Hello,

Here's a recent picture of my baby:
My ever changing equipment list is as follows:

Lighting:

7 Aquarays
3 x 39w T5 (2 x dimmable)
1 x 24w T5
GHL Weather Stick

Circulation:

Vortech MP20

Filtration

Deltec 1250s skimmer
Deltec FR509 rowa reactor
Deltec Nitrate reactor
Miracle Mud & Cheato (with Arc Pod 11w)
Vecton 15w UV
Teco Chiller
Eheim 1260 return

All of which is run through my GHL aquarium computer and plug bars.
Also I've got some fish and corals knocking about somewhere in...

its not a bristleworm,and it has 2 black eyes you could see in its head too
small eunice worm maybe???

i was ask to post a tank thread so here goes , first thing first the chimney breast had to come out
then i board the walls and had it plastered

it was only two week ago i managed to put the floor down

i have been working on getting all the bits together ,
ro unit
arcadia3 light unit
i also built a wier in tank and reef flush and made my own 5mm black acrilic weir cover and comb

Hiya im thinking of having a larger angel and was just wondering what would be the safest bet not to nip on my corals i was thinking a majestic or maybe a blue face.it will be going in a 150 gallon start with but time its gets a bit bigger i will upgrade again its the perfect excuse

Hi does anyone know if i will need to reinforce my floor for the tank will be 150 gallon with the sump then i would say about 50kg of rock.Its a old terraced house and will be going across the joists.The trouble is its rented so i dont fancy ripping up the new carpets and the flooring so what are my chances if i risked it.My theory is because its a cube the weight will be placed evenly over the joists making it more stable :roll:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thought i'd start another one of these tank thread things
hopefully it'll stop me clogging up the photography section with constant photos

Anyway here's the spec (very basic really)

Tank size is 54"longx18"highx18"wide

I had it made at a cost of £215

Filtration is a simple Fluval Fx5

useing a mix of media's, sponge's, rowaphos etc

Skimmer is a simple deltec mce 600

with impeller modifications to produce...

You've gotta love these corals stunning animals imo
