claval01 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 The stand is combined two IKEA BESTA units with glossy door panels. I don't have filtration. I hope to rely on live rocks and 10% water change weekly. Hope it will be fine. Fingers crossed! If it fails, I may add a sump and skimmer in the future. I didn’t even know you can be successful without filtration?!?! You have just made my weekend! OMG IM so excited! 1 Quote Link to comment
daletu Posted December 6, 2013 Author Share Posted December 6, 2013 I didn’t even know you can be successful without filtration?!?! You have just made my weekend! OMG IM so excited! Haha. Thanks. Large water change works. I was doing 10% but now doing 50%. 1 Quote Link to comment
Illuiix Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 I see you're making big water changes now. Next thing you know, you're going to do 70% water changes. 1 Quote Link to comment
daletu Posted December 6, 2013 Author Share Posted December 6, 2013 I see you're making big water changes now. Next thing you know, you're going to do 70% water changes. Haha. It's possible if I keep adding critters to my tank. So far, nitrate 0, phosphate <0.03ppm at the end of each week. Which is good I think. 1 Quote Link to comment

daletu Posted December 10, 2013 Author Share Posted December 10, 2013 I saw this acropora that I have always wanted showing on LFS facebook! It's extremely rare, only one frag left when I went to get it within one day! My LFS has one colony in their display tank and only frag it once in a while. Guest what it is? My pictures doesn't show it's true color, it should look kind of faded blue color. 1 Quote Link to comment
