jervismun Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Hello My latest project... since I've collected a few pieces of equipments suitable for a nano setup these couple of months... might as well set one up for real Start with a $20 plexiglass tank... footprint 16" x 9.5" Placed on my office work desk... double as a working lamp now I have not decided what to keep... any ideas guys?

SRC Member angmoh Posted January 9, 2007 SRC Member Share Posted January 9, 2007 so have decided on what you intend to keep ?? and what are you waiting for ?? fill up the water please !! Quote >> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jervismun Posted January 9, 2007 Author Share Posted January 9, 2007 a zaos dedicated nano is my first pick !! Emm... kinda sick of Zoas... wanna try something new I believe LS selection is heavily dependent on the water temperature... been 24ºC to 25ºC during office hours today (due to raining outside)... will monitor closely tomorrow with all equipments and light running This digital temperature is from my main tank Quote Tank 60x40x40 Optiwhite Glass Tank Sump Elos 500 w/ Tunze Overflow Protein Skimmer Skimz Kone SK1 Return Pump Hydor Seltz L30 Wavemaker Hydor K1 Illumination 150W + 2 T5 Chiller Arctica 1/5hp w/ Aquabee 1000 Water Top-up Tunze Osmolator Dosing Pumps Grotech 3-Channels Calcium Reactor Deltec PF 501 Computer Aquatronica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jervismun Posted January 9, 2007 Author Share Posted January 9, 2007 Here's another view of the Reefpack 200... love the surface skimming... very crucial for a nano tank without overflow... Will decide what to fill up the filter chamber with... probably some filter floss, activated carbon and PO4 removal media The 20W total power consumption is quite "nano" in scale... love it Quote Tank 60x40x40 Optiwhite Glass Tank Sump Elos 500 w/ Tunze Overflow Protein Skimmer Skimz Kone SK1 Return Pump Hydor Seltz L30 Wavemaker Hydor K1 Illumination 150W + 2 T5 Chiller Arctica 1/5hp w/ Aquabee 1000 Water Top-up Tunze Osmolator Dosing Pumps Grotech 3-Channels Calcium Reactor Deltec PF 501 Computer Aquatronica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jervismun Posted January 9, 2007 Author Share Posted January 9, 2007 bro i think jellyfishes need a circular tanks if not they will get caught at the angles True... I've seen some nice circular tanks in London Aquarium... they just swim (or rather float) round and round Quote Tank 60x40x40 Optiwhite Glass Tank Sump Elos 500 w/ Tunze Overflow Protein Skimmer Skimz Kone SK1 Return Pump Hydor Seltz L30 Wavemaker Hydor K1 Illumination 150W + 2 T5 Chiller Arctica 1/5hp w/ Aquabee 1000 Water Top-up Tunze Osmolator Dosing Pumps Grotech 3-Channels Calcium Reactor Deltec PF 501 Computer Aquatronica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jervismun Posted January 9, 2007 Author Share Posted January 9, 2007 Now this pix shows the ugly side of the Reefpack 200... microbubbles released by the skimmer... usually present at the running-in phase... well will see how Let's talk about the water... well basically I just added in 100% water from my main tank Plan to do weekly 50% water change from my main tank Quote Tank 60x40x40 Optiwhite Glass Tank Sump Elos 500 w/ Tunze Overflow Protein Skimmer Skimz Kone SK1 Return Pump Hydor Seltz L30 Wavemaker Hydor K1 Illumination 150W + 2 T5 Chiller Arctica 1/5hp w/ Aquabee 1000 Water Top-up Tunze Osmolator Dosing Pumps Grotech 3-Channels Calcium Reactor Deltec PF 501 Computer Aquatronica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
