maybe u can do without the blue tang as it will grow quite fast and u need to relocate the fish liao.

there are a lot of nice nano fish ard, get some nice goby or wassre, it will be very nice too...

Bro, if really want blue tang can get from Aquamarin. They have one whole tank of really small blue tang. Some only 1cm in length. But the bad tink abt very small blue tang is that they die easier. I used to have one abt 1cm long but die within one wk.

anyway have got a 3inch lion fish... for oni $8.. to try out..

wish me luck

that depend on the rate of the overflow pipe.

The flow rate of the overflow pipe is depend on the

depth of the pipe in the main tank. So If the pipe is

not deep enough, the flow will be very slow. So

if you get a strong pump, you actually dry up the sump

tank and flood the main tank.....

Since your return pump is 300litre/hr, can I said that your overflow rate is also about 300litre/hr or slightly less than that since there will be some losses in the return pump?

Also is the sump seated besides or rather behing the main tank?

[Oceandeep]

yep... the rate should be 2++.

The sump is sitting behind the Main tank.... where the overflow

pipe flow to.

My Lion fish dead within 7 hr..

Now oni put 2 clown fish and a cleaner shrimp...

will add 2 more fish when I upgrade my 3ft to 4ft tank....

tank comin this weekend...
