[maestro]

Hello

Ive taken a few pics of my new additions to my marine tank, been to loads of shops in the last few days but these had the best colour

A couple of tank pics

 

[Paul_MTS]

nice pictures, and clowns!

is thats a rio180? looks nice so far how much live rock is in there?

nice bit of plumbing with the MCE600, do you find it noisy at all?

 

[maestro]

It is a rio 180 yes, it has just over 20kgs of live rock in there, my mce600 is fairly quiet, it just produces a small hmm from the pump

looks very nice.
I always wanted a SW tank....FW just seems cheaper with up front costs!

 

[maestro]

Yeah it certainly isnt cheap but ive been savign up overal several months and alot of the euiptment is 2nd hand to keep costs down as much as i can

[triliaeris]

Are those cameras in your tank?

 

[Angel Lady]

I think your tank is awsome I love the clowns. I always wanted a SW tank I just never had the nerve to try one,,But one of these days I am..

triliaeris there powerheads they are for circulation in the tank

 

[triliaeris]

first time I've heard of anything like that. Thanks!

 

[houndour]

oh so those a are powerheads cool.

How long is your tank?

What lights have you got? They are the type/style I want for my tank. But my boyfriend wants firefish and the info I have on them says they jump.

Looking good though. I love clown fish. So how long has it been running before you put them in?

 

[willtang3000]

if your boy friend wants firefish just never leave the lid open and keep a tight fitting and also be cautious when you feed them

 

[maestro]

Yes the camera looking things are powerheads, they are good as they have a very wide nozzle which means that although they are much more powerfull that the standard powerheads, the actually output is a gentle surge which is more coral friendly and provides better water movement which is really important in a marine tank

The tank is 100cm long by 40cm wide and 45cm tall, the lights are Arcadia 4xT5 luminaires

I had it running 1 month before adding the clowns
