Hello fellow reefers, my first tank thread after a few years of reefing. Had a few nano tank set up and a 322 mix reef from 2012 - current. 

My old 322 mix reef tank 2015- growth over a 10months

Temporary holding area for 1month! with just a chiller !

Following on... The new tank arrives ! Front panel crystal glass!

- My new Tank now made by Aquarium Artist. is an IOS tank. Dimensions roughly 2.5x2.5x1.5. 

I will be following on with what i did with the 322 reef tank such as manual dosing of additives instead of auto dose, running of Rowaphos/Biopellets and ofcourse skimmer.

I did a downgrade due to time constraints, but overall lesser volume of water only haha. Water change easier. 

Cycled with NSW for around a week with old media only and the New tank started officially on 28 september 2016 where i moved all livestocks over! 

Equipment list for new tank - 

- Hydra 26 HD for lighting 

- Skimmer Bubble Magus C3.5

- 2 TLF reactors 

-1/4 chiller hailea

- Eheim compact 2000 Return Pump. 

And here's the start of my first Tank thread! on 6 October 2016!  Enjoy the latest FTS and top shots of my Rainbow reef tank ! Thankyou for viewing!

Oo, is this skimmer good? I want to modify my 3' tank to IOS too, and considering smallest yet good skimmer. Was looking at Nyos 120


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

if u have the space to make for a nyos 120 go ahead! that skimmer is even better for at 3'tank! but if wan to use minimal space for IOS. the BM C3.5 does the job too! it really also pulls out gunk thats why i went for it. Economical and efficient is BM . Have deep pocket = nyos hahahaha . But i just checked nyos footprint is about 3-4cm wider . therefore ur IOS shld be atleast have 16cm width to hold a nyos 120 with

Dimensions (LxWxH):

15 x 21 x 46.5 cm , while BM C3.5 is much smaller where my ios width is only 12cm width considering IOS we want to use as little space within the tank. I used the BM C3.5 as it has the smallest foot print and ability to skim 300+ litres and is skimming gooooood :D

Hi Bro ZhengXi,

Like to ask you what type of rock you used for this scaping? How did you stacked it so high?

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just random live rocks, played around and stack, no specific way

Bought a new big maxima clam on 8th October 2016 yesterday that came from Tuamotus island south pacific ocean at iwarna! So in love with it. Coloration is just insane ! Still spooking and half open adjusting to the environment. Can't wait for it to open fully will update more pictures when it's fully opened
