1.5 feet fowlr tank


Recommended Posts

Hi all guru . I just started a Fowler tank on 1 April for cycle with mix live rock.

Prawn been added and removed. It look the bacteria is working since it converted ammonia from 5 to 0 when I use the prawn.Hopefully correct. I am still feeding my invisible fish daily.

Here the reading

10 April : no3:10, no2: 1, ph:8.5 kh:90,gh:180 sali:1.015

Prawn was added on 11 April and removed on 12 April.

14 April: no3: 180, no2:10, ph:7.5, kh:120, gh:180 sali:1.015

16 April: change 5 liter of water and increase sali: 1.021

I am I doing correctly to cycle to dead rock( red color) and dead gravel.

Base on read up. I will be able to add fish when no2 and no3 drop to close 0 right?

I will only put 2 clown fish and 1 cleaning crew

Here my tank. 21 liter (nano)

I use a small wavemaker to stir up waste and let filter do its job. I will on for a few mins each day/alternate day. Reason being in small tank, more current = higher temp. Just sharing my experience from low maintenance keeping. ^^

Parameter look fine. I took a water reading. Look normal, could be the hot temperatue. Water was around 31 celcius. Will get a fan next time before finish cycling the tank. I see some white Crystal on rock

Bro, 2 clowns died don't mean tank crashed. If your intention are only 2 clowns, I won't even do recycling as long as the clown is healthy. Fyi, a QT tank doesn't need to go thru the process of recycling and it called a QT tank. Yet the fish still survive in it.

There are many reasons for your clown fish death and best to read and ask around. How to introduce LS is very important too.

Thanks for the tips. Introduction ls to fish, did the few hours + water cup by cup. Fish look fine for 3 week. Sudden deadth. Suspect temperature to high at 32. Tanks can't sustain 02 hence fish die. Will try to cool down tank using a diy fan. Post a picture later. At the moment no fish till everything look fine first.
