Karatetag Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Hey man, im new to the forums and your tank looks great. I read through the whole thing. I have a 14G BC on its way and am trying to soak in as much info as i can. I also couldnt help but notice you and another guy that was posting are from the sarasota-bradenton area. I live 5 mins away from coral connection and have been going to them for years when i had my 55gal a year or two back. They are really great! Love their corals and always negotiable with their prices. Im planning on going to them for all my upgrades on the tank. I created a thread for my 14gallon trying to get some input for the setup in the 3 chambers. http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=195786 Feel free to post and maybe ill see you around haha! Take care. Link to comment

Karatetag Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 Thanks karatetag. Im slacking on my water changes this week. I shoul have done it monday.... Its now Saturday... Tomorrow I shall do one! Get on that hah, we just started ours tonight and we already have everything planned out as far as what we are throwing into it. Im just trying to make sure my filtration setup is ok. Check out the pics i posted on my new thread. Im documenting the life of my..."our" biocube and its on my..."our" signature. haha. I might need to meet up with you to snag some snails. Gotta get my CUC going. Link to comment
Ando Posted May 4, 2009 Author Share Posted May 4, 2009 Did my water change yesterday! lol. Im also thinking of getting a chiller. maybe this one http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod...mp;pcatid=12068 the 1/15 hp. Has anyone used this one? How do you like it... and also will I need to buy a pump or anything else for the chiller? Link to comment
lakshwadeep Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Nice acropora frag. Do a quick search on the jbj arctica. I can't remember, but one or a few of the smaller chillers commonly for sale are unreliable. Link to comment
Ando Posted May 4, 2009 Author Share Posted May 4, 2009 Which acro frag lol? Thanks lakshaweepepojdfkkgjsdg lol ps. hows the skimmer? Here a cool sps Link to comment
lakshwadeep Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Which acro frag lol? Thanks lakshaweepepojdfkkgjsdg lol ps. hows the skimmer? The yellow one! (post 253) You can shorten it to lak if you want. It's the name of an island chain. The skimmer is nice, but I haven't been using it for a few weeks. I'm thinking of getting a sump since my lights completely cover the tank. I think another reason is my tank was always skimmerless, so even with SPS, I want to skim as little as possible. Link to comment
Ando Posted May 4, 2009 Author Share Posted May 4, 2009 Ya that one is super bright! Ya i took the skimmer out of my tank bc it was to jammed into the middle chamber I didnt like it. So Im doing skimerless. Link to comment

Ando Posted May 22, 2009 Author Share Posted May 22, 2009 Well I though I was going to have to buy a chiller bc my temps were rising to about 84 in the day.. But I went to wall mart and found a 6 doller fan and it keeps my temps to about 80 now... Wow im happy I didnt have to buy a chiller! Link to comment
Ando Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 Well I won't be getting the elegance coral I was going to get. I was supposed to pick it up soon and called the guy and he said one of his fish ate it and it died! O well. You win some you lose some! Ps. in another week I will update the pics. My friends has my underwater camera in Bali. Link to comment
lakshwadeep Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Maybe the lost elegance was a hidden benefit: http://www.wetwebmedia.com/elegance.htm Link to comment
Ando Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 Thanks for the link. ya could of been good that it got eaten lol. Maybe a maxima clam will be next on the list, and some zoos, and some LPS for some movement in the tank. Link to comment
Ando Posted May 27, 2009 Author Share Posted May 27, 2009 This could be a dump question.. lol Could I have my nova extreme pro which is 108 watts and also run a 70 watt metal halide on my 29 gallon biocube.. Or is that just way to much lighting? something like this http://www.reefshops.com/70w-150w-de-metal...4-20k-bulb.html Link to comment
Ando Posted May 28, 2009 Author Share Posted May 28, 2009 Latest FTS shot of acro growing very nice Link to comment
