    Please Suggest LED Lighting for 4x2x2

    in New to the Marine Aquaria Hobby

    Posted

    Hi,

    Currently my 4x2x2 is running with Aquazonic 2 x T5 (54w) + Beamswork Doule Power LED 2600

    Planning to upgrade to a better LED light:

    One if my consideration is Maxspect G2 800nm with Cree Upgrade.

    Please advise whether this light will be enough for my 4x2x2.

    Will keep mostly fish and some LPS corals.

    Please post your suggestions. Thanks.

    How to treat ich( white spots)

    You cannot do hypo with Coral & Inverts, need to move them to a temporary tank and can do hypo in the display tank, also run the temporary tank with just your coral and some inverts don't add any new LS until you complete the hypo.

    Once hypo is completed move the corals & inverts back and use the temp tank as Q-Tank.

    What is your setup? Is it FOWLR?

    Bro, Its better to do Hypo treatment for now and later setup a QT for the LS that you are going to buy hereafter.

    Do a Search in Google bro, you will get many posts about itch, but some uses these medics and some say itch is cured some says it comes back after some time...

    Currently i am also fighting itch, I am doing Hypo and now cant see any visible itch or flashing fishes, planned for 8 weeks and already 4 weeks gone, still 4 weeks to go.

    Just my 0.0002 cents.

    What algae is this?

    I have the same in my tank. Waiting for my par38 led light to come and grow some macro algae in my sump. I thought your chaeto should be sufficient to reduce the po4?? That's why I'm getting lights and a timer so that I can grow macro algae to reduce the po4

    I think the root cause for this problem is my green grape algae in the refugium, i didnt notice that it was dead due to the spoilt PAR32, that might have exported lot of nutrients to the tank...

    Now Added a new PAR32 (12x3w. 2 blue 455nm. 5 red 660nm. 5 red 630nm) to my refugium and added chaeto,

    After taking few other steps to reduce Po4, now i can see it coming down.

    Oh, thanks for the info bro, searched in google and confirmed its diatom... will measure my PO4 tonight and update, since i am doing Hypo i dont want to add any new fishes now.

    Will try out the green filter today......

    Is there any medicine to control/remove it, is it safe to use it during Hypo.

    Hi Brothers,

    Recently this algae is growing up very fast in my tank, is this Cyano Algae?

    I read that cyano algae will grow where the flow is not enough, but in my tank these are grown just in front of my Wave Maker (WP25 running in Else Mode)

    While i setup my tank, i added live rock from my previous setup and some dead rocks got from another reefer, now this algae is growing up in all the dead rocks which i added.

    This started growing only after i added "Purple Up".

    My Tank is 4x2x2 FOWLR with Bare Bottom, Skimmer is BM C7, currently i am on a Hypo to cure ich and since the salinity is very low skimmer is not doing well. This tank is 2 months old. I dont have a quarantine tank so performing Hypo in my DT, No Corals or Inverts in my DT.

    I also have Chaeto (2-3 hand full) in my sump.

    Feeding once per day. No Causalities for more than a month.

    2. Fox Face

    3. Hippo Tang (3 inch)

    4. Yellow Tang( 3 inch)

    5. Clown - 2 (3 Inch)

    6. Fire Fish

    7. Chromis

    8. Cleaner Wrasse

    9. Yellow Wrasse

    Please advise me.

    http://www.fishponds.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=396

    Looking for a Suitable Skimmer for my new 4x2x2 Tank. I need to use this in my Sump. Thanks.

    Reason for trading:

    Yesterday my 3x1.5x1.5 tank cracked at the back and water all over, moved the live rocks and fishes to buckets and some tubs. :rip:

    Luckily last week i ordered a new tank from TankMaker, pls don't ask the price as it created a Tsunami in my wallet, my new tank will arrive on 16/Jan... so need this skimmer for my new tank. Thanks.

    Temperature for FOWLR

    in New to the Marine Aquaria Hobby

    I tried many methods like fan, freezing water bottles everynight and using it as topup water.... Yes it keeps the temperature down.. but its really a lot of work to do...

    But when i planned to go on a vacation for 3 to 4 days.... these DIY was not a good option to rely on,

    Finally ended up with a chiller.... Happy fishes...Peace of Mind during Vacation.

    + Added a D-Link wireless webcam to watch my tank from any where... Left a spare house key in office, ,so if i find anything wrong in my tank, will ask my friends to go to my home and do remote fixing... :eyebrow:
