Nice and im planning to setup marine aquarium like yours, except for one thing. Is it possible to design in a way with no unsightly equipment with pipe visible around and so on. I hope to setup something like urs but i dont like the pipe and equipment visible on sight. I will prefer to have a cabinet and house all external below the tank. Is it possible to get all external like protein skimmer, calcium reactor, ozonizer external ...

Bro welcome to the marin world!!! Yeah u can get ur desired tank but with a slightly higher cost. Go to the Members Tank & Specs section and u will find a lot of bros running very clean looking tanks as all their equipments are under the tank, in a sump. But those kinda setups are usually quite large... normally 3ft and above so that u can have a large enough sump tank below to fit all the gadgets!

Good luck

i follow the rec dosage on the instruction manuel.

one drop a day . no hassle .

i dun measure iodine , but i know my coral's colour is great.

been doing this for nearly 3 months le i think .

No wonder u can have so much corals and they still look healthy in your tank... hehe... nice AM flotor filter + skimmer u got there... can easily rival my Reefpack 500 (if not better).
