supernareg Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 lighting is a 10watt mini PC 50/50 in a regular clip on light (with mylar glued on inside to maximize output), for flow there is a pump from the nano fission skimmer WHICH SUCKS SO NO ONE BUY IT ! worst waste of money ever, but i guess pump was worth it, about 3-5 pounds of LR, 5lbs of LS (2 inches) and so far only 1 hermit. no heater, temp swings from about 73 the morning to 80 at 12am when light goes off. light cycle = 12p-12a tank measures 6W x 8H x 7.5L it'll be a zoo dominated tank, with maybe 1 nice looking shroom and a stalk of xenia, and possible caulpera. i'll update as it goes. set up yesterday, tank got cloudy today, i assume bacteria bloom. i used dry sand which was thoroughly washed, LR and LW (live water ) from my established tank.

supraeli Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 7 degree temp swings doesnt sound very good, but i guess since you are going to be keeping easier corals, it might not present a problem... i think with 10 watts of light, you may have trouble keeping coloration of corals, but im not too sure... ive just never trusted my livestock to thrive in minimal lighting...
