jervismun Posted April 4, 2006 Author Share Posted April 4, 2006 Why ler... Firstly due to space constraint, the Percula 90 (with the IOS) is actually much narrower than I've expected. Secondly, I am trying to reduce the amount of pumps running in the system. Since I am already running a very powerful Aqua Medic Turboflotor skimmer, there's actually no reason for me to have another skimmer in the tank. Really feel sad... this is the one piece of equipment I never ever thought of selling, although I received a lot of PMs for this item...

Will PM u the lighting details. Here's a pix with all MHs and T5s switched on!!! It's blindingly bright Oh yeah... the Wavebox... well I will hide it with some LR or corals... hopefully pink coralline will grow on it overtime I've tried various placement and this one seems to be the best in terms of wave current and circulation.

jervismun Posted April 4, 2006 Author Share Posted April 4, 2006 Since I do not have the 'heart' to sell my beloved ReefPack, I will place it behind the Wavebox. Will have to divert the filter outlet a little... most probably facing upwards to create more surface ripple. The Wavebox is running at 40% and it's surprisingly quiet... was expecting a lot of noise Will increase intensity once there are more resistance inside the tank Tank 60x40x40 Optiwhite Glass Tank Sump Elos 500 w/ Tunze Overflow Protein Skimmer Skimz Kone SK1 Return Pump Hydor Seltz L30 Wavemaker Hydor K1 Illumination 150W + 2 T5 Chiller Arctica 1/5hp w/ Aquabee 1000 Water Top-up Tunze Osmolator Dosing Pumps Grotech 3-Channels Calcium Reactor Deltec PF 501 Computer Aquatronica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
