The rocks will be cured at the LFS (for weeks) before deliver to my tank. I will then set 10000 traps alongside other methods to eradicate (as much as possible) those little pests!!! I will later seek for more help regarding this... as long as I have the patience... a proper setup is not a dream but a reality Might need your help also bro Zorden, but I don't like Trigger 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...
