Nice setup man. I like the sump idea.

Lovely blue coloured fishes there.

Also How long has tank been set up

what is that??, What does it do?? How do you Make??

Mysk let me se if I understand your question right.

If your referring to the acrylic containerto the right of the tank it is a calk mixer that I made basically what it does is drips calcuim cloride (CALK) in my nano tank which maintains my calcuim levels to what I desire. I use Mrs. Wages pickling lime instead of the calcium you woukd by from you LFS which cost too much money. Mrs. Wages is the exact same stuff but way cheaper. If you need more research you can go to reefcentral and do a search for mrs wages. The container to the right of the picture stores lime water which is dripped 24/7 in my nano tank at the exact rate of evaporation. This serves at two thing top off water and calcium for my SPS. I also have a pump in the container which is on a timer and turns on a couple times a week for a few minute to mix up the lime power which settles to the bottom the pump will stir it up.

My nano has been setup about 2 months now. I used water and LR from my main tank which gave me instand cycle.
