bro Jv,

How much is the nano reef package?

Any local lfs carry it? Or i have to order online?

Bro Sunny... yes I think it will be available locally pretty soon... do check out Tunze's website for local wholesalers and retailers :P If you are not in a hurry... do allow me to run this little guy for a week or two :eyebrow: You can order from www.sewatec.com also... but the overall price to pay (esp. the freight charges) can be steep :(

Since the water is completely from my existing tank and the Reefpack 200 been running in my sump no.2 for a week now... I figure I can add some spice to the tank... just to help the skimmer kick-in faster :lol:

The rocks are from my sump no.1... oh I must remember to remove those macroalgae :cry: The colony of Green Zoas are there temporarily... will monitor it under my 27W PL... hopefully that will help me select my future corals/inverts for this nano :)

Last pix of the day... phew... quite a lot actually... the Tunze skimmer is slowly kicking-in... I dunno why... I got a feeling this will take a while... probably too used to high capacity skimmers with their instant kick-in :lol:

U sure got many ideas up ur sleeves :idea: Wonder if u gonna start a S.H nano tank ? since u aleady experiences a LPS tank. It'll be kinda of a challenge and different species of marine life to keep :)

mayb u can keep soft coral in tis tank..

is this tank water link some how to ur other tanks?

looking forward to a colourful mushies n ricordia garden...

With a single 27W PL... I don't think many corals or softies will look great :unsure:

No, this tank is isolated from my main system... solely supported by the Tunze Nano Reefpack 200 and water from my main tank (for water change) :heh:

Water temperature not desirable... hovers around 29ºC to 30ºC... with the air con switched on for hours... the temperature will drop to the 28ºC <_< There goes my grand and crazy ideas... stick to Zoas I guess :unsure: Unless... unless... unless :heh:

Added a Hydor Koralia 1 to improve water circulation and to add some surface agitation... working flawlessly... I am really glad Hydor considered producing such a low capacity model... truly a NANO model :)

Since there isn't a need for cycling... I've decided to add in 2 tiny fish today... here's one of them :P

And the Zoas are opening well under the 27W PL :heh:
