hi all

am planning a 3 feet tank (2 feet depth) with mainly softies n LPS.

thinking of the following config...

1. PL lights. (2x36W) - 02 units

three 10K tubes and one artinic.

OR

4x36W - 01 unit

also 3 10k and 1 artinic

2. sump (with DSB grade 0 sand and marcoalgae on reverse photoperiod)

3. a suitable Weipro skimmer for the sump. which model should i be getting for a 3 feet?

4. tunze stream - 01 unit (which model should i be getting? ) Or should i be getting a Rio?

5. fan. (protechic fan) - 01 unit

6. eggcrates. (aquascaping)

7. anything else?

oh yeah, anybody knows any freelance tank makers? the prices quoted by some LFS kinda steep. gerald maybe? anyone got his contact/email? i think email better.

:D

Carbon + De-chlorinator + Water parameters Test kits, Ammonia,Nitrite,Nitrate,Calcium,Alkalinity + hydrometer + Temperature gauge + Marine Salt + Sponges for mechanical filteration + rubber hoses for your return pumps. If dont wan chiller, better use external pumps, cut down on heat from the pump motors......etc

Cheers,

James
