I am trying to set up a 2 ft tank with most of the hardware coming from yahoo auction, Sgreef sale, and of course some need to be purchase from shops.

This is the first time I am posting picture, therefore not sure if it can turn out. Hope to get feedback and advice on improvement but please don't recommend spending $$$$

This tank is almost a month into the cycle and one of the damsel is more than 3 weeks old in this tank.

I recently got this Weipro 2012 skimmer but not sure how to adjust it. Should I see foam immediately or it will take couple of days?

Meanwhile, sit back and enjoy it.

the skimmate will take sometime to form. be patient.

show us your tank specs and we will tell you what to improve on.

Welcome!!!

Oh yeah... skimmate... my fav Yes, the skimmer will take 2 to 3 days to kick-in, the best way is not to touch the skimmer (no tuning)... let it run for 2 days and see how. Pix will definitely give us a better picture of your setup and to share with us your proud setup.

Haha... it's kinda upfront for you to mention "please do not recommend me spend $$$"... but if your setup is incomplete... spending money along the way is inevitable This hobby is a "bottomless pithole" unfortunately The rich will have larger pithole... the "not-so-rich" will have a smaller pithole... no one escapes without damage

But it's well worth it

This skimmate is from wet setting. 11/2 days worth of collection.
