Ok Here goes....
I have not been into this very long but hvae been researching this over the last 6-9mths.
I jumped head first and bought a full setup from someone on this forum...Got it @ a very good price....
But i'm not to happy with the setup....i wanted to start my tank from scratch and go through all whole setup cycle loose stuff properly...
So, i have put a lot of thought into in and i am now gonna build and start a tank from scratch...
Here's my current setup :
DS - 1220 x 440 x 440 (Side overflow)
Sump - 1100 x 300 x 300 (5 compartments) Thats way to many....
Lighting - 5 x T5 3 White 2 Blue, and for some reason there's also 2 x blue T8
Have a small skimmer and a 5000l return pump. Have a Calcuim / phosphate reactor. To powerheads.....
+- 35kgs of live rock
some corels (most soft) my baby being the anemoni
Have a Large Sailfin Tang, Tomato Clown, 2 Common Clowns(Nemos), and a boxer shrimp.
Now for the new setup.
DS - 1500 x 610 x 500, using 10mm Glass allround and front panel will be Starfire.
Bracing ???? Suggestion please
Sump ???? Have now idea what size. Ideas please???
Will invest in a good Reef Octi Skimmer... Will keep the Reactor. Keep the power heads. As i get in more funds will upgrade to the tunze units...
Lighting ????? Suggestion again please.
FeedBack would be good......
Also, may need some1 to help babysit for me until i can cycle this tank and have it ready....Im in Durban
Thanks in advance for the help
