brandon429 Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I signed into this thread because its the focus of another article online discussing the viability of really small reefs and that really got me to thinking. lots of setups come and go in the tiny reef side it would be a really neat thing for someone to simply not give up until something like this works, the volume is a real challenge. what do you plan to keep in the tank>?

19jeffro83 Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 You need to figure out how to put one of those on a gold chain. Now that there's a market for. Link to comment

brandon429 Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 no one is successfully keeping one as small as these two. not just setting them up, but keeping them to obvious age so there is a fair challenge there and motivation to do well with the setup. at least you aren't bumping elbows in a crowded room ~ Link to comment

CosmicAquatics Posted August 19, 2010 Author Share Posted August 19, 2010 I hear you on the viability of one of these lasting long term but really its not that difficult. Ive started just changing the water everyday. You are correct that aqualifters do suck... well the problem is that the dont suck, without being cleaned every other day. Link to comment
brandon429 Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 thats cool because you have found a method that works certainly and from here on out you can aim for designs that lessen your work load as they reveal themselves to you. not that a few mils change is work lol do you plan on keeping it going for a while or is it something you would eventually take down and incorporate into a larger reef? no harm there either, but with as much work as you've put into it it seems like you are going longterm and you have a lot of people watching man thats a heck of an impetus to get your innovation boots on~ good job on getting the forums talking and your fabrication work.

CosmicAquatics Posted August 20, 2010 Author Share Posted August 20, 2010 Well these corals wont be going into a larger reef because I already have some other really big systems. Ill keep this going just because it is fun and kind of challenging. Ill keep this thread updated as long as there is interest. I might make a mini sump for the stand to filter out stuff that keeps clogging the aqualifter but I think its probably just a build-up of bacteria and a prefilter wont help that at all... I do have some small pumps, maybe that will be my next step. Any input? Link to comment
CosmicAquatics Posted October 29, 2010 Author Share Posted October 29, 2010 Ill get an update up soon. Its still going and the polyps have grown too! Im kinda lazy when it comes to getting pics up... Sorry. Link to comment
