Very impressive tank. For lighting you can also consider maxspect razor 120w

Thank Admiraltian and inwear . Still new in this hobby. For razor, I did consider b4 but the length is too wide for my tank , my tank is only 45cm wide. Razor is about 59 cm. I am waiting for the radion G2 .

Just bought some test kit and did a measurement for my water parameters.

Ph - 8.3

Po4 - 0.03

Salinity - 1.024

Kh - 11dkh

No3 - 100mg/l

Btw, is my no3 okay for my tank? 1st time testing no3, the number look horrible to me ... Maybe I measure wrongly.

Need the experts' advice

Thanks

nice rockscape there.

Thanks . I do another check tonight on nitrate level. At the same time , stop all the temptation of stocking live stock and reduce feeding .
