slapper Posted June 17, 2012 Author Share Posted June 17, 2012 i'll get an anemone after i bought a compact size wave maker most probably a hydor koralia... boyu wavemaker taking alot of space, its too big.. and the vent holes are big, can eventually suck in my turkey blaster. Hydor koraila is so hard to find. I'm happy with my current wavemaker Newave Nano, made in Italy. Great size. East Ocean Aquarium (freshwater) at Havelock sells them.

SRC Member MadScientist Posted June 17, 2012 SRC Member Share Posted June 17, 2012 well, there's cases of anemone moving in a very well maintained, balanced tank, some even after a long time of no change. it really depends on the anemone's characters I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maskigntape Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 > What is your tank set up? I'm using a ISTA MaxCare canister filter 360L/hr and a Dymax mini protein skimmer for IQ5. Running on a Dymax Vortex Cooling Fan W-8 and Boyu Wave-Maker WM-101. Substrate is normal fine sand and using Red Sea salt. Hi, may I ask where did you buy your filter and skimmer from and the price I should expect? I'm starting a 2 ft tank and i dont intend to use a sump tank. Please feel free to offer any advice. I've also read about the liquid elements you make sure your water has, in order to maintain the water parameter, is that difficult or expensive? Thanks alot!

For the skimmer, u need to check. I didnt saw it at c328 nor polyart.. BTW, dymax iq5 skimmer is under rated for a 2feet.. get a higher capacity skimmer.. I myself invested on the skimmer. From Boyu Skimmer to Dymax XP 30 skimmer to Bubble Magus E3 skimmer. I quite happy with BM E3 skimmer. If u want to buy bulk (above $100) products, order it at www.freshnmarine.com.sg... Above $100 free delivery with choice of cash on delivery. They have dymax IQ5 skimmer at $25. I myself just ordered some stuff from them, will be arriving 2morrow. Its quite cheap.

slapper Posted July 3, 2012 Author Share Posted July 3, 2012 Sorry for the long absence as I was overseas. Read some of the postings. If you are keeping more livestocks, I would suggest a stronger filter. As for skimmer, Dymax IQ5 skimmer is pretty decent and I'm reluctant to use other skimmers as they are either too big (internal) or my tank is not high enough for an external HOB skimmer. For Dymax IQ5 skimmer, you probably need more water changes. Here are some recent photos of my tank. Enjoy! Quote My Tank Journey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
