SRC Member ZmasonJ Posted May 11, 2020 Author SRC Member Share Posted May 11, 2020 And guys I actually did not place any tank mat under my tank do you think it would be alright ? It’s already 8 months and nothing has happenSent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Supporter SubzeroLT Posted May 11, 2020 SRC Supporter Share Posted May 11, 2020 You can consider to reduce the red/green light levels to about 5-10%. Some anecdotal feedback states it can help reduce diatoms in some tanks (there are other contributors to it). The mat under the tank is to distribute the weight of the tank because the wood surface is not 100% flat and things can shit a little as the wood ages. Your tank isn't too large/heavy and since its already 8 months, i think the risk of glass cracking is low (but don't quote me) Quote Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/mysliceofnature/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member soggycookies Posted May 11, 2020 SRC Member Share Posted May 11, 2020 Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app thanks for sharing your light settings. I’m also keen to learn more about the nitty-gritty of specific effects/purposes of different channels as far as wavelengths go. here’s a link on nano-reef.com about it. it’s from 2014 but i believe it still provides a basic understanding of color channels on a controllable led fixture:https://www.nano-reef.com/forums/topic/352618-led-colors-and-what-they-are-used-for/Personally I would go for a higher violet setting and lower the deep red channel in favor of a bit more cool whiteSent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whq Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Hi ZmasonJ, nice tank. Will you be able to share how you hook up the chiller for the redsea max nano? Do you channel the return pump to your chiller before return to the main tank? Keen to get a redsea max nano but exploring a nice way to install the chiller with minimal equipment. Thanks in advance Quote Tank setup 4ft x 1.5ft x 1.5ft (3 way viewing) ATI Sunpower 6 x 39w Arctica 1/5Hp Skimz SM161 skimmer Smart ATO system Jebao DC 12k Jebao dosing pump (Fauna Marine Lite balling - Thinking) Jebao RW 15 wavemaker Upgrading in Process.....

SRC Member JJtheReefer Posted May 28, 2020 SRC Member Share Posted May 28, 2020 Can I check with you how long has your yellow tang stayed inside? I always wanted a tang in my Redsea Nano Reefer (28 Gallon) but advise was not to have one because tang need at least 50 gallon and above.

Thanks Sent from JJtheReefer imo when still small, tangs can be kept in smaller tanks but as they grow they will definitely get too big for a nano- especially acanthurus species like blue tangs that need a lot of space to swim. you could also try smaller species like those in the ctenochaetus (bristletooth) tang genus.
