Water volume?

[JAYJT78]

Hi,

First of all hello, i have been keeing fresh water for around 6 years now and im seriously thinking about setting up a nano in a spare 70 litre (18 gallon US, 15 imp gallon.

Been doing alot of research, but one point is not clear.

Just a quick question, when it comes to water volume for lighting,power heads ect... Do you take into account the volume of LR and LS when calculating what equipment you need?

 

Thanks in advance.

Most of the time you just go by the tank size. The tank size just determains basic sizes of equipment but you can go from there above or below the average equipment (higer light, flow, etc.) For example, the hight of a tank will more affect the lighting than the water voulme.

Amount of lighting and flow needed also varies according to what types of corals or fish you want to keep.
