Got my new led lightings: aquanice (a jap brand I think) led for refugium. 2x white AI hydra 52 HD for dt. The reason I went for white was to minimise heat absorption. Now waiting for my rails to come :yahoo:
also bought a few more accessories - accudrip for easy acclimation, and a siphon

I bought it at a fish shop in front of Pacific reef. The live rock section is actually my refugium hahaha. Not really sure what to do with it. Will consider selling/giving the rocks, then make it a full chaeto refugium :huh:

Bought these 2 to try out. Not sure how long the filter will last. The salifert additive seems to have all the necessary elements for nsw, so trying out an easier method :idea: will have to add the specific elements to reach the specific levels needed of course

Bro 1year liao. How is that aquanice performing?

 

able to grow chaeto or coral in your sump?

It is still working, but not able to grow chaeto :( I think the chaeto got stuck under the live rock in my refugium then somehow died. or maybe the light is just not good? Wanted to get more chaeto to test out after moving my LR to DT. but these few months just too busy
