looking good how about telling us the tank specs?

i always had the idea that nano would be like 1ft - 2ft and pico would be less than 1ft in size. that would be the main display tank size. there are folks who have sumps/fuges that's bigger than the main tank

nice! love the frogspawn... may i know where u got it?

in my 24g nanocube, i'm having a total of 144w PL lights. 2 x 36w 12k (dymax) 1 x 36w 10k (coralife) 1 x 36w arctinic 03 (coralife) as well as almost 500gph flowrate. have a couple of monti digi and a encrusting monti in it. digis growing pretty fast since it was added 2 mths ago (double in size from 2 inch) and monti cap just added a couple of weeks ago. possible to try other sps? oh yah, have an external canister hooked up as a fuge along with a piccolo airdriven skimmer. i must say Dan's tank was a real inspiration

for some inspiration, see here http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.p...threadid=553708

done it before... no problems. there are pple using 70w mh for pico tanks if you're worried, just on 1 tube followed by both tubes after a few days. if things are not to your liking, you can always off the 2nd tube.

72w shouldn't be a problem... my 24G has 144w PL. you should be able to get 50/50 tubes from petmart

check out I~Aqua (one of the sponsors here)

sure, as long as it's sturdy enough.

try the eheim liberty HOB filters or check out the ibox from our sponsor

my cabinet is 3ft and tank ht is 2.5ft. had my doubts when my tank maker (suspect is the same as yours) told me to have a cab at that ht. but have since realised he's right. it's much easier to pack things into the cab (equipments like canisters, co2 cylinder, etc). also, with the tank set higher, the view is much better, be it standing in front or from the sofa only hassle is that i need to use a ladder to reach the bottom of the tank. but that's not often. imho, go with the 3ft ht cab, it'll give u much more options should u decide to change equipments.

you could try Marine Life over at Hong Leong Gardens... check out the sponsors section.

water change once per week, but if have time, change mid-week too (less %). feed once every 2-3 days no problem more impt would be to get your bro to top up the tank due to evaporation.

from the pic, your sandbed is not too deep. and as it's still "young", the nasty stuff would not have accumulated enough to cause your tank to crash from rescaping. your can do a rescape followed by a water change. should be fine. you can leave things as it is but be wary of sand digging livestock. eg pistol shrimps, certain gobies etc make sure your rocks are stacked firmly so that hermits/snails would not be able to move them

bro, i suggest you re-do your rocks when you setup the chiller. you should put rock 1st then followed by sand for a nano setup (even for a big tank, it's recommended). there's a higher risk of falling rocks due to sand movement if the sand went in 1st with the rocks stacked on top. rocks hitting the sides of the nanocube will risk scratching it or worse.. cracking the glass. also when adding snails/hermits, they tend to knock things over as they move along the rockwork. so better to make sure your rock structure can take this "abuse". some folks epoxy/glue several pcs of rock together to form the structure they want before putting into the tank. real sturdy and less worry

you can try nature aquarium Nature Aquarium Address : Blk 1 Thomson Rd #01-340 Balestier Hill Shopping Centre-Blk 1 Singapore 300001 Telephone : 6255 6051 or system & control engineering , also known as Bioplast System & Control Engrg Co Address : Blk 22 Boon Keng Rd #01-23 Singapore 330022 Telephone : 6296 4916 shouldn't cost more than $15

don't know enough to give you answers but hope this link helps http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/forumdis...?s=&forumid=252 you'll find plenty of large tank setups there and maybe you'll be able to get a rough idea the type/size of equipment needed. looking forward to more updates on your setup

i thought there a 1.5ft fixture that has 2x18W PL tubes? u can use 1 tube blue PL and the other tube 10K

saw some really nice bubbles at harlequin but..... there was a piece of paper with the word SOLD stuck to the tank glass... maybe can check with them whether they have some more stock or new stock coming in. number: 6396 5659 ps. no relations whatsoever with harlequin

for a tank that size, i can only think of clip on lights. can get from ikea, nature aquarium or if you are near tampines mall, you can check out the new shop at B1. they are selling some small cube tanks and clip on lights.

yep today closed.. so better cheong tomolo! saw the zoos yesterday, very nice

you having stock lighting? anemones need pretty high lights to do well. check out the invert section.
