Been a long time since I've updated. Could finally get a new tank built back in September 2019. Sharing some pictures here for now. Nothing much is happening, just waiting for some corals to grow and for the tank to be more stable in time to come. Hopefully, the tank will be able to keep Acropora as the circuit breaker ends... Tank 3' x 2.5' x 20", 3-sided crystal glass Equipment Ecotech Vectra M2 Ecotech Radion G4 (x 2) ATI sunpower dimmable, 8 x 39W Deltec 1500i Jebao wavemakers (SLW-30 and SOW 20 if I'm not mistaken) Rocks and bio media Marco rocks 10L siporax 4L Seachem pond matrix 3kg of Maxspect Bio-spheres plus a bag of bacteria king bio media FTS (Almost everything is a frag): Sump (haphazard placement of fluidized reactor for now. Waiting for the circuit breaker period to end before I can purchase some properly sized piping for the reactor): Side-view (with dying corals I tried to rescue):

Thank you very much, appreciate the reply a s your time

Pretty useful..

Thanks Rob et al. Happy to share my passion and the little and simple things I do to care for a small piece of the ocean in my living room. Sunset Montipora.

Yes, it should be enough. The Ammonia should start to zero out over the coming 5 days and then nitrites should spike and zero out over the following 8-10 days. If you are adding bacteria you can expect this to speed up substantially. But there is no reason to keep adding ammonia now you got to a good starting point. Typically, it is said that a cycle is finished when there is zero ammonia, zero nitrite and a modicum of nitrate. At that stage some reefers will take their tank for a 'test drive' once they see zero ammonia (and zero Nitrite and c.20 nitrate) by adding ammonia once more to the tank to get to 2ppm. The idea is that this will take just 24 hours to clear if the tank is fully cycled(0 NH3 and 0 NO2). Once this is done then you can add fish. Again this is all sped up with the use of bacteria! There are a few things you can do to help... keep salinity lower then normal as bacteria use more energy in more saline solutions. Keep water slightly warmer as it promotes bacterial multiplication. Oh and keep your lights off. Check out DR TIM HOVANEC's MACNA presentation on cycling your tank with bacteria. Hope this helps Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

Below is the online calculator I've been using. My 2' cube FOWLR tank comes up to S$11.61 per month with the new tariff. http://www.reefcentral.com/calc/tank_elec_calc.php
