[vtec3100]

Hi,

My tank setup:

3ft x 1.5ft x 1.5ft

running on eheim canister filter, weipro 2013, 20+kg of LRs.......

lighting use JKS 4x36w PL tubes, 2x 10000k white n 2x blue tubes.

still in process of cycling tank.....

after i have cycled the tank, can i keep corals/anemone with this kind of setup?

will the lighting be sufficient for corals/ anemone?

which type of coral can i keep? basically i dont know which corals looks like wat....

if possible can someone post pictures of those that may suit my tank?

one last question.......what can i do to stop/minimise the movement of anemone?

Is there any kind of anemone that dont run about?

Thanks

Regular feeding is also quite important to keep your anemone survive. BTW, tube Anemone doesn't run about. See mine!

Erm.. I'm sure it'll be able to support soft corals like mushrooms n Zoanthids. But i don't think anemones will be able to thrive in such conditions.

IMHO. NO. IMNSHO, NO. (In My Not So Humble Opinion). Run a search on SRC and you will find that a lot of corals and most Anemone required more than normal lightings. You also need a chiller for MOST coral!

Just my 2 cents! Maybe 5 cents? ir $20 worth?

Hey anemone are not easy things to keep, suggest you learnt more first about them, before venturing into one

4 x 36watts PL... 1.5ft depth. Should be sufficient enough for anemones and most corals.

Suggest you buy a coral book because by the time we post photos and everything.... it'll be a book already.

Get Aquarium Corals by Borneman... look for our sponsor, Seaquest, he may have a good lobang.

Carpet anemone is one of the hardiest IMO..but they will eat everything.

Thanks achilles Tang,

will go n lookout for this book........

when i'm thinking of my tank was fully cycled(likely in about 1-2 weeks time more to go), n adding corals....bit by bit, than maybe some small pieces of fishes........very excited......

but this time round i'm going to do it very slowly......

like many brothes said........Marine is actually a test of patient......

Cheers
