Well cycling has began for the tank
rock has been cycling for about a month in a vat, I added a used sponge filter for a day,also nano tank water and a piece of live rock to speed up the process, the tank has been running since the weekend, had it setup last weekend didn't like where it was so I drained it saved the water in it and moved it to the other side of the room, looks better also no more sunlight hits the tank
..filled it back up did a big water changed in the nano over the coarse of 2 days, then added the nano water to the big tank, a small live rock and pinch of live sand, again to speed things up, one koralia 4, looking to get 2 nano koralia power heads for my wave maker, I'm loving LEDs
,, the water shimmer is amazing, it's only a CHINA BOX,but full spectrum, we will see what we get, 2013 model, I don't like the way the aircraft wire hangs so low, I'm going to cut and crimp it at work one night this week, then I can move my stainless steel hanger I got welded up down just to get a more modern look, I've got a 2 bulb t5 still wondering if I should use it to supplement?maybe a few ATI's, unibob
. So I'm going sumpless, tank only, don't worry my tank husbandry is very good, my nano is the same no sump, nothing, just lots of love
and elbo grease...Red Sea prism pro for the new tank, seems to be working just fine, set in minutes.. a little noisy, but I don't mind as its in the critter room anyways
running carbon in it, made the water sparkle in hours
, budget here people
, I would love a reef octopus hang on, maybe for Christmas
, both tanks have Red Sea skimmers, they both work amazing for me, I'm running both tanks the same way,(KISS) method all the way
, anyways enough blibber blabber, some pics
