    Tank design

    in Product Reviews

    Posted

    My previous 422 tank W/sump had an internal underflow which was'n suitable for sand and undergravel but now I've just bought another 422 tank W/sump but with internal over flow, just discovered that if I put food into the tank it flows into the over flow before the fishes eats them. So which is actually the best design??? Real headache.... :paiseh:

    Hi Steven,

    Dont need to bother about addictives during cycling.Just keep testing for ammonia>nitrite>nitrate.

    Once nitrate is detected,you are ready to start stocking after a water change.

    After you have corals then you need to test for Calcium,KH,Magnesium & PH.

    Salifert is a good brand.Keep reading when you are new :)

    Cheers

    Andy

    Thanks for all the advise. I be having my tank into my house tomorrow. Once complete cycling after about 3-4 weeks I suppose will have to trouble you guys for more advise again. Thank you guys once again for all the tips.

    Palnning to start my 322 with sump tank. Need some advise here. Can someone tell me what additives is required during the cycling period? Strongtium, magnesium, calcium? Besides NO2, NO3, PH & Ammonia, what other tests is required? When to perform the test? Which brand of Test kits would you guys reccommend? Cos I know some tests kits gives inaccurate reading. Though I had my first tank setup about 2 overs years ago which didn't work out quite well and had to give up halfway due to work overseas, lost lots of $$$ now got to buy everything 2nd and really careful.
