Are those replica rock? Why not share some of your tank equipment and setup as well?

[lotu112]

Oh, these are live rocks after bleaching and vinegar soak.

Sure, currently having these in my sump:

• Skimz SN143 protein skimmer
• Biopellet reactor with NP bio-pellets
• Phosban reactor with Rowaphos
• Ehiem compact 3000 return pump

Would these be sufficient for a basic setup or anything i've missed out?

[lotu112]

And still searching for light at the moment

Thanks Bro. Liked the transparent feeling too, will be better if the pipes are white in colour

Looking forward to see more pix with fishes and corals!

[lotu112]

Oh alright. Thanks for the info.

Actually i put quite little sand but the internal sides of the tank have like addition glass which made it look quite thick? like bracing thingy?

[tang_sohal]

Oh the bottom bracing.. its neccessary.. especially your top is rimless.. enjoy the cycling..

[tofubox]

Nice setup bro. What sort of tank is this going to be? Softies, LPS, SPS, Fowlr? I ask cos your scaping might need to twerk abit for more room, that arch is abit too high and not many places to put LPS.

Good luck, look forward to more pics =D

Thank Bro. Maybe softies and LPS and learn more first .

Yeah agree that it's abit too high. Was wonder if some zoas and anemone will be good there .

While waiting for the tank to complete cycling, gotten myself two little harlequin shrimp and a sand star for my pico.

[lotu112]

Some snails to help clean the tank too.
