I use

- Two integrate PC 3 watts each blue color (not actinic)

 

I buy here in Mexico, not especial light... in a house of comercial light.

Looks good, did you make the tank from scratch? I'd be a little scared of the xenia in there though, at the rate mine grows it would take the tank over in a few days, lol.

- I change 300 ml each week, i take the water from my other tank (140 liters)

- Sorry Bobalouy, i dont understand the your question

- brandon, no calcium/alk dosing regimen because de changes of water are from my other tank (140 liters). My topoff/salinity control... i take destilated water all days and refill the tank.

I think Bobalouy means is did u buy the tank,hood and base or did u have to make it all.Like buy the glass,wood and stuff to make it or did u just buy it allready made.

noone, how much (how long) daylight do you give the tank?

 

¿cuántas horas al día de la luz del sol recibe?

 

it looks like you keep it by the window. how are your temperatures? do you use a fan?

 

what part of mexico are you in? i just visited mexico city last week. very interesting city. reminded me a lot of taipei.
