looks more than 15

[ShinLa83]

@1Filmproducer Title says 15 o_O;

@ShinLa83 Just search for theaquatools on google, click on it, measure your tank and the tool will calcule your tank size. Or multiply the width by the length by the height then divide by 1.000 and you will find if your tank is 15 gallons or not :D

your tank looks really nice if you add some corals it would look even better good job

[patif35]

how much u spend on it all

[NickRauseo]

I love the aquascape.

[xSTeSHy]

Does your rock lean up against the glass on both sides and the back? Would I be able to do that on my 33 gallon? (36lx12wx18h) thanks

[ShinLa83]

@xSTeSHy Don't lean too much, it holds but you don't want to put all the weight to shatter it.

[The9226192]

you should slowly add corals for color!

[Elton4ever21]

what flow would you recommend for a 12 gallon tank? I was thinking either 85 gph or a 120 gph.

[ShinLa83]

@Elton4ever21 I used Koralia Nanos. A lot of flow is never a problem, in the ocean, the currents are extremely strong =d

[amt521999]

[ShinLa83]

@amt521999 thank you~

@FullTimeExperts thank you:) it's pretty crazy ;D

[aykim2188]

hey! thanks for all the advice. Now im trying to get a protein skimmer and a ho light so I can start a reef tank around aug/sept. I am deciding between the tunze 9002 and the cpr aeroforce. Do you know anything about them? I thought about the aquac remora nano but I heard they are loud and that the tunze performs better? But CPR just released teh aeroforce in sept and it looks amazing....

[ShinLa83]

I'm posting up a video about the noise with AquaC Remora this week on how to silence them like a sleeping baby. It's very, very easy and you can do it with things you already have running in the house. Remora works instantly soon as you set it up. As for Tunzes.... it's a Germany company, end of story lol. Having a Tunze is like having a BMW or a Mercedes lol. Not too sure about the CPR aeroforce though. Hope that helps, cheers!

@ShinLa83

Great I will be waiting for the video!

[MONKEYfists100]

are protein skimmers only neccesary for tanks with corals, or for fish too??someone plz help me

[ShinLa83]

Protein skimming is a type of filtration, it gets rid of excess protein waste and also dissolved organic compounds. If your heavily stocked with fish, shrimp, crabs, etc (livestock), then you will have excess protein. You can do weekly water changes if it's a fairly small tank with low livestock, but again, if your tank is heavily stocked then I'd suggest you get a protein skimmer. But always, it's a personal choice rather than anything. Skimmers are for both fish only and with corals

[MONKEYfists100]

is that really a 15 gl, looks so big, nice tank!

[aykim2188]

great tank. which koralia nano do you have?

[ShinLa83]

The regular Koralia Nano, but it was upgraded to Koralia #1

[aykim2188]

any chance you want to sell the nano? lol

[ShinLa83]

Yea, the bigger one is getting bigger and bigger, darker by the day. Ocellaris gets pretty dark when they grow, they lose the light color. The tiny one is still tiny haha. Thank you, i move the rocks around a lot, never satisfied ;x

[bananatree94]

if ur gunna keep this a FOWLR i suggest adding some sort of anemone at least. also i would add some carnivorous colorful starfish that reef tanks cant have. it would make your tank look really special compared to the typical nano reef.

[ShinLa83]

@bananatree94 I planned to move this back into a bigger tank with corals. I already did :)

[bananatree94]

@ShinLa83 alright thats cool too haha. this tank did look really nice tho ;)

[hype0ff]

you should add some corals..nice rock setup
