| New Reef Setup Hey all!!
Its been a while since i have posted as i have been very busy with alot of things, but im back!!
Recently i have setup a new reef tank in my room. Its a 250L Aquavital 980 that has been customised with a built-in glass overflow which moves down into a sump and protein skimmer, and im also running the built-in filter in the top of the tank for twice the filtration. The light bulbs have been changed also with two white lights and one blue light, and i believe they are 15,000K bulbs, but i will have to confirm.
I have 30kg of Live Rock, and 25lbs of Live Sand which is flourishing with coralline algae and sponge... It looks awesome. I have three reef chromis which were used to cycle the tank, as well as a six line wrasse, coral beauty and a hermit crab. I also have a few mustrooms that grow bright green under my moon lights that i took from my bigger tank.
Im looking forward to swarming the tank with coral and fish to make it one crazy reef setup. Ill post pictures when i get the chance!! |
