nanoworld Posted February 10, 2004 NICE tank Cyber! I like those ViaAqua's - where did you purch yours? Quote Link to comment
Cyber Posted February 12, 2004 nanoworld - I got it in L.A for $168. It's very common now. Almost all the stores can order them for you. When I got it, there only a few stores carried it. Cyber Quote Link to comment
basingh Posted March 11, 2004 you did a really good job with your tank, I just bought a via aqua 18 gallon and wanted to know what are you running on the back of your tank. Also are the lights you have the ones that came with the tank or are they modified. Quote Link to comment
Cyber Posted March 12, 2004 Hello Basingh, I've been running a Prizm skimmer and a HOB millennium 2000 filter. The light is stock (2x36W - 1x12,000K and 1x7100K) Hope that helps. Cyber Quote Link to comment
True Heart Posted March 26, 2004 I just ordered the 21 Gal Aqua Via tank for my husbands Birthday. And it will be our first Salt Water tank. Is it hard to maintain them? I'm not even sure I got a good price. ($239) I liked the look of the 10 gal and the owner of the shop said it's easier to maintain a larger tank. Should I put live plants in right away or wait? Your tank is beautiful. I hope ours turns out that way. Thanks Tami Quote Link to comment
Cyber Posted March 28, 2004 Hello Tami, Are you going to have a planted tank or a nano reef? if you get your 21gal with marine setup then it's about right. If your tank is a fresh water setup then it's a bit expensive. It's all about the light that is more expensive for a marine tank vs fresh water tank. Cyber Quote Link to comment
Seamus Posted April 7, 2004 This is a really cool tank ! Excellent aquascape and very colorful. I'm setting up the same tank with the stock lighting for now. I have a 150 MH pendant available - debating on replacing the stock light. Anyway - this tank has really been an inspiration. Good job and congrats on Tank of the Month. Quote Link to comment
llamaboy Posted April 23, 2004 Tank is amazing!, are the 10 gallon via aqua tanks any good? and what type of lighting do they come with?. Quote Link to comment
Cyber Posted April 26, 2004 Thank you everyone, Ilamaboy - The tank comes with 2x36W PC. One actinc (12,000K) one daylight (7100K). Cyber Quote Link to comment
scolex Posted April 29, 2004 Should I stay with the stock lighting it comes with or should I get new bulbs? How offten should I replace them? Don't they lose there power? I am in the process of adding a 10g fum underneath any ideas? Quote Link to comment
Cyber Posted May 2, 2004 scolex - I am not sure. It all depends on what are you keeping in the tank. The stock bulbs are sufficient (if you get the marine setup). You need to replace the bulbs every 10-12 months. "Fum"? you meant refugium? I have no idea about refugium. I never setup one. Cyber Quote Link to comment
sloneb Posted May 18, 2004 Your tank looks great. I only hope mine will look this nice when I am done. How many powerheads are you using for circulation and where have you placed them? Thanks, Quote Link to comment
Cyber Posted May 18, 2004 Kelpie - Check http://www.aquaticwarehouse.com/site/index.cfm. Call them or something. I know they have this style in 11gal, 18gal, 21gal and 30gal. Sloneb - I use 1 powerhead (Maxi-jet 600) placing on the top right corner blowing across the tank. I also have a HOB filter that create down flow. Cyber Quote Link to comment
louiegirl Posted July 13, 2004 I have the 10 gallon Via Aqua, mine is over 2 years old now but I am thinking about removing the CPR back pak skimmer I have on the back as I think it is just a dirt magnet. By the end of the week my tank looks like it really needs a water change. Do you use a skimmer? Quote Link to comment
Kingofthejungle Posted August 7, 2004 Amazing! How Much Live Rock you got in there? Looking good! Quote Link to comment
netjackson Posted August 9, 2004 Looks really nice. Also nice selection of Zoos! I just set up the 28 gallon. I liked curved glass. I tossed the lighting and filtration and went with PC's and a wet/dry. Quote Link to comment
frano03 Posted October 25, 2005 dude your tank is flipping awesome!!!!!!!!!!! would you recommend a skimmer? I currently don't have one right now. Also how about a sump? I have a 20 gallon. Cleanup crew? Quote Link to comment
Opcn Posted December 14, 2005 How old is the tank? and how big were those frags when you got them? It looks really good, I love seeing big mats of zoas Quote Link to comment
Cyber Posted January 24, 2006 Hello, The tank was 1 year old at the time this picture was taken. The zoos were growing from frags of 5-15 polyps. Skimmer I used was Red Sea prizm with surface skimming device. The tank itself was sold a year ago to Uchiha when I moved to the new place. I moved most of my stuff over to my 150gal tank now. Live Rock was about 10-15 pounds. Lighting were 2x32Wattx PC. Sun coral was fed 2 times per week with fine cut squid. Sorry for the late respond. I havent checked this website for year. If you have any question, let me know. By the way, this tank was also TOTM on April, 2004. I am not sure where they put the TOTM section now. I have details about the setup in there. Thanks for liking my nano =) Cyber Quote Link to comment
