SRC Member KennethK Posted May 6, 2007 SRC Member Share Posted May 6, 2007 No chiller? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member sunrisesunset Posted May 6, 2007 Author SRC Member Share Posted May 6, 2007 nope no chiller. Tank's in my room doesnt get any sun light in the day pretty much cool in the day ard 28 degree even during hot days. Lights comes on only at night ard 7 plus. Usually room is air-conditioned at the time temp dun really go beyond 28 degree even with lights and no air con Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member sunrisesunset Posted May 6, 2007 Author SRC Member Share Posted May 6, 2007 Anyway there is no way i can get a chiller for my tank so it will have to do as it is now. The temp i mentioned in the above post was when the tank was still a 2ftx1ftx1ft So I guess with almost twice the volume of water now the temp rise during lighting period will be even lesser The highest temp my tank recorded was ard 28 degree that was when there is no air con and the lights have been on for 6 hours. So i guess it shouldn't have a problem hosting LPS. The clam is doing well for a few months already so I guess that a pretty good indicator I guess this is my chiller now hahah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member bubble_gum Posted May 13, 2007 SRC Member Share Posted May 13, 2007 bro nice scaping. if your filtration can handle it, dont add any more rocks. its nice to see a tank with a big and clean sandbed. there are some nice corals that do well on the sandbed. furthermore adding more rocks will make your water volume much lesser which isnt very good and worst still its a nano. too packed a nano with a small water volume is a big challenge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i definitly will add some live rock in (probably a little bit) cos i like branching LPS and they will look better on rocks than on sand bed i guess thx for the advice will keep it in mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jervismun Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 If you do not have a SEIO stuck in such a strategic location...

Current the clown really thinks the gonio is an anemone. It will snatch food and bring it to the gonio and release it there hahaha. Added in 2 of these from AM.
