  My New Fish In QT :)

  Posted: October 2nd, 2010, 6:11pm CDT by vatso

  Hi folks
  
  This is my first post on this site, although I have been viewing it for a short while now.
  
  I ve listed the specs of my. I built myself, I dont realy like the look of conventional nano tanks you can buy, yet still wanted something small so I devised this little contraption. The water overflows over the rear of the tank into an overflow, then into the skimmer chamber--filtration media chamber and then to return chamber.
  
  I must say Im enjoying it evan though Im dying to add fish have to be patient I keep reminding myslef:(
  
  Ill put pics up when I can figure out how......is it the new server?
  
  Tank
  30x30x45 (rear 15cm houses pumps filter and skimmer so display area is an exact cube)
  
  abour 10Gal capacity
  
  Skimmer
  Dymax mini skimmer rated 300l ( although pump says 600l)
  
  Return Pump
  600l Dymax
  
  Lighting
  2x dymax LED lights (clip on)
  
  Filtration
  
  2KG cured live rock (I think)
  
  Purigen and filter wool
  
  clean up crew
  2x hermits
  2x turbo snails (I believe)
  1x unidentified snail
  
  Planned inhabitants (if they can be accomodated in such a small setup)
  2x clowns?
  1x bi-Colour blenny?
  
  Longer term inhabitants (down the line when tank is more mature)
  Zoas
  Ricordia
  Mushrooms
  
  Been cycling the tank for 2 weeks and all parameters seem to be in line....I am holding my breath as my FW tank has been an algae trap since day one.....
  
  the plan is to do a 10-20% weekly water change. I will only begin doing this after a 4 week cycle.....is this correct?

  What, More Tanks?

  Posted: October 2nd, 2010, 5:36pm CDT by Michael B

  Hi everyone, I need to collect about 900 liters of salt water on the weekend. Problem is I've got only one 25l container :(
  
  Would like to know if anyone has larger containers that I can borrow? Promise to look after them. Please let me know urgently.
