Hi. There are 2 tanks in tjis thread.

I will explain the smaller 9 gallon tank as that one has a

proper system.

Tank has compartments at the back.

Compartments contain:

1. Tunze 9001 skimmer.

2. 2nd Compartment - filter floss & activated carbon, amorphous.

3. 3rd compartment - return pump.

Water changes are weekly or biweekly depending on the condition of the tank.

water top up everyday.

Air conditioning at night only.

It is really basic.

Little update.

2 Royal Grammas,3 Springeri Damsels,3 Blue Eyed Cardinals,1 Yasha Goby

Have all died...within a week.

Corals seem to be easier to keep than fish.

Not getting another fish anytime soon..

Sis,

Sorry for your fish losses.

If so many fishes died within a week, something is very wrong and it's better to try to find the source of the problem. If your fishes had marine ich, then it's advisable to leave the aquarium fallow for some time.

How often do you do your water changes? Do you stir the sand too? Do you dose any bacteria?

What filtration are you using and what media are you using for the filtration? Did you add too many fishes at one go?

High temperatures will cause bleaching. It happened to some of my corals previously too. There is a mini chiller in the market and some of our lfs e.g. East Ocean Aquatic, does carry it. For me, I'm still running on mini fans to cool the water temperature although it means I have to top up the water frequently.

All the best!

The difficult part is the water condition/parameters.?

Small tank means more challenges...
