Hey Guys
I have finally decided to join the marine world. I have been part of MASA since 16-08-2010 but always only been reading and dreaming. Finally the dream has arrived.
So after reading alot on the forums I have decided that even though i have had FW tanks for about 4 years now I still know nothing about Marines. After reading alot of posts here of how people have made mistake this is what i have come up with.
To start off:
1.2m tank with corner overflow to sump.
2500lh return pump
TS1 Skimmer
4 X 54 T5 lights
2 X 2500lh power heads
Resun CL-280 Chiller
1 X 300watt heater.
Well washed play sand for DT
Mix of Aragonite-Fiji Pink Reef Sand and Play sand for dsb(150mm Deep)
Water ill be getting from dorry pets as I live close to them.
Idealy i would like a reef tank where my main focus will be corals. Ill only have a few fish(5 or so) and a CUC.
Please let me know if im missing something.
Ps. I have a RO unit for drinking water, will that work for top up?
