Edmund Koh Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 am I replying ?? Yups we can see your replies. I think your tank have compartments at the back that is partitioned away from the main tank. U can place your cheato in one of the compartment (preferably after the skimmer) and if you can, not in the same compartment as the return pump (the stray cheato will clog up your return pump). You can also get a hang-on filter, remove all filter mediums and replace it with cheato. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Supporter dinGdinG Posted November 10, 2014 SRC Supporter Share Posted November 10, 2014 Hi bro, welcome to the nano club.. perhaps you might wanna share your plans on what livestock you wanna keep, so that bros here can give you specific advice to your plans.. I also learned alot from this forum, planning is extremely important at the early stage to determine how you use the limited space available for a nano owner.. It can get quite frustrating as you go along and discover the space limitations for essential equipments for the livestock you want to have.. That being said, its gonna be good fun as well haha Just keep reefing~! Quote Just have to keep reefing... cant stop now~! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is the challenge that makes this hobby an interesting one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member Kelvin Ang Posted November 10, 2014 Author SRC Member Share Posted November 10, 2014 Any bro later wants to come join me at clementi reef shop ? I had no idea what to buy next . Needed help thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmund Koh Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Marine Life doesn't have any spare Cheato to give. I asked them less then a week ago. Your best bet to get Cheato would be at Iwarna but you got to call them to ask as they may not have spare to sell. Hmm .. Kelvin, why not u pen down in a single reply what equipments you have at the moment, whether or not your tank have started (if yes then for how long and what was your cycling process like), what fishes you have or plan to get and what corals are u thinking of keeping (Softies, LPS or SPS). Will also be good if you can list down your tank's current parameters and temperature. This way we can help u better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it true ? Can my beam works light supports on lps and sps corals ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmund Koh Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Your tank should be 1 ft deep. My tank is also 1 ft deep and I'm using an AI (similar to Ecotech Radion) for my tank and am only running it at 30-40% power. Abit overkill. Your beamswork should do alright if you put your photosynthetic corals in the upper half of the tank. Else u can opt for LED lightsets that have 1-3W per LED blub. Par38 full spectrum would be a good budget lightset that have been proven to work for corals. For LPS and SPS corals, u got to think about the amount of flow in your tank and more importantly, ensure that you have stable parameters, especially temperature and PH.

Edmund Koh Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Wow! Your tank is doing well. Hmm .. Bumblebee snails are carnivores .. got to make sure there is enough food for them to find. Or can think of reducing their population. If you intend to keep SPS in your tank, the anemone and hammer would pose a problem as they tend to sting other corals near them and your tank isn't very spacious. Might want to think of how you can arrange your corals such that stinging corals can be isolated. Temperature wise can consider 26-27 degrees to keep your electricity consumption down. Cooling water to 25 degrees would be a tough job for any chillers in our local weather. Most corals will still do well at 26-27 degrees.

SRC Member Kelvin Ang Posted November 10, 2014 Author SRC Member Share Posted November 10, 2014 Yes bro the amemone keep walking around ... very shocked when it's walk .

Edmund Koh Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Anemone will keep on walking until it finds a place it likes. They like medium flow and medium to high light where their tentacles are. But would prefer a "cave" or a hole in the rock where they can hide their "body" away from strong light. Medium flow is where u see the tentacles moving but not being forcefully blown. Medium light is when u see the anemone is bright but not glaring.
