jervismun Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Wow!!! Gonna be a really wonderful looking tank... do keep some schooling fishes... a tank this long allows them the opportunity to display their schooling behaviour Love the Tunze Stream compartment Quote 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...
jervismun Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 yeah u definately need alot more rocks Personally I think your scaping will look greater with more larger pieces of LR... currently they are a little too tiny for your tank... unless you plan to cover every inch of it with Gems Quote 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...

SRC Member godzillaliu88 Posted January 15, 2007 SRC Member Share Posted January 15, 2007 if want really giant ones. then i think need to go diving and dig up your own rocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jervismun Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 if want really giant ones. then i think need to go diving and dig up your own rocks. I think it's illegal to collect large pieces of LR from the coasts of Singapore Unless with the proper paper-work Bro, the best super large LR I've seen so far are those from Coral Farm... do drop by and you shall not be disappointed... but it might take a lot of money to fill up your giant tank with Fiji rock alone Quote 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...

But has make a order with 1 of the LFS to bring in LR of 8 to 15Kg each for 150Kg hopes its enough. Expected to receive by Monday. Purchased the CO2 and regulator and set up the CR.

jervismun Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 I think it looks good... since ur rocks are mainly small pieces (especially those on top)... can easily move around once you start to introduce corals Quote 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...

acidjazz Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Its better to have bigger rocks for easy scaping, especially such a huge tank like yours. eg. Bio Ocean's display tank is made up mainly of huge rocks, 8-10kg types and it looks fantastic. Can ask for refund for the lr?

SRC Member jem Posted January 23, 2007 SRC Member Share Posted January 23, 2007 in my honest opinion.. the rocks are too small.. looks very messy.. but the scaping idea there is set. you need big rocks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
