10 Gallon nano reef aquarium

[strikers11soccer]

Personally I think a 6-line needs a bigger tank bc they swim around so much,

[austinpetemo]

stunning, is that an odysea lighting system? if so, hows it working for ya? cuz ive gotten bad reviews on their stuff, which is why i havnt bought from them, but the prices are tempting

[FONZiEownzU]

@austinpetemo I just bought one and did a review on it if you are still interested. It works really well so far!

[samubabe101]

6lines are cool check mine out

[hyposomniac76]

Amazing coralline coverage. Where did you get the rock?

[Snickoys]

haha i got a 24 inch 65 watt odyssea light for my 10 galon on ebay for 27 bucks plus 13 shipping.

[Tim81595]

i ordered the same one yesterday!! did yoy get it yet?!

[Snickoys]

no i was just going to order it yesterday but im thinking of the 96 watt one now that the same seller sells.

[Tim81595]

ooo ok i would probly do that to bu ti dont got the extra money and dont plan on keeping any high ligh corals anyway :)

[Snickoys]

yea i will probably buy the 65 watt one

[samubabe101]

@Snickoys I run 103 watt pc's with a 20 watt actinic

[hyperhalo123]

dude that is beast so could i get some damsels and some blennys and make a 10gallon coral reef?

[jellyjamjar]

no. for one avoid damsels at all costs, and second only one blenny per about 75/100gallons.

you should focus more on getting a tank, lights, heater, etc... then livestock.

[Ambriz150122559]

Bad ass tank dude ur lucky

All I got is a piece of crap 10 gallon freshwater tank with 2 oscars

[tastythighs180]

maybe it wouldn't be a piece of crap if there weren't 2 OSACRS IN IT

[Tim81595]

@Ambriz150122559 dude you need 50 gallons for just one oscar your horrible and fish if you have them both in a 10 gal

[hotdoghee123]

[xxmusicxequalsxxlife]

[sfdpiggy]

what is a cheap but good bran for a protein skimmer? Aslo do u have any websites for them?

[northstar1357]

Hi, i noticed that u have aquafuge from CPR. does the protein skimmer that it come with make a lot of noise compared to a tunze nano. Please tell me. i am interested in buying one but not sure whether is noise would bother me for CPR Aquafuge PS

Thanks

[sonnytos]

It is a great and very quiet skimmer. You won't be dissapointed. You're welcome.

[DGKDecks]

what kind of fish are in their ?

[sonnytos]

A six line wrasse.

[bucc4life]

nice tank

[awwwwnaaaa]

how much would a set up like that cost....P.S. I already have the tank, and lid.....I just need the insides???

Thanks

[sonnytos]

Not much, somewhere around 7500.00 dollars...Just kidding. I don't really know. I did not bought everything at the same time. I'd say 800.00 ( includes refugium)if you go brand new, 400-500.00 if you choose used equipments.

You need filter,lights,powerheads, protein skimmer etc..(the estimated price includes)+ live rock, sand, corals, invertebrates. Another 400-500 easy. Or you can find not too old used corals on eBay. It was another joke.

You're welcome!

[evanescence345]

well im gettin a 10 galon too. and its gonna be like 40 dollars

[bucc4life]

dont spend money on live sand it'll cost u alot....many people dont know this but the "live sand" isnt really alive...all u need is dead sand live rock and ur set...and a heater of course but thats all u need for starter...then later on u can add your powerheads or wavemakers and ur corals and fish...nothing to it....just make friends that love fish around u and u can get alot of stuff for free like me..i go free false percula clowns, anenome live rock, filter, heater, all for free...

[bucc4life]

all i bought was dead sand for my tank which was like um 10 dollars.....not to mention i got free lighting for my tank too...cool right...and i can get free corals anytime i want...another advice is that u should make friends with ur asain petstore owner....then u can deal with the prices and get lower prices on the fish....i went with my cousin and he bargain with the dude...he got a 50 dollar fish for 15 dollars..."ANGEL FISH"

[takemeon2212]

hello, VERY NICE. I will be starting my first reef. Do you have a sump or just the HOB Aquafuge ??

Thanks,

[sonnytos]

Thank you very much!

I have a medium size ( 19")HOB refugium, with deep sand, caulerpa and chateo macros, and some live rock. Great netural denitrator, and very beneficial copepod provider. I also have a Marineland C-160 canister with Chemi-pure carbons. 3 small powerheads. 900 G/Hr circulation/movement, 78-80 F, no chiller.

Good luck to your project!

[bucc4life]

where u get ur lighting from...her "hood" to be exact...? please reply thank you

[sonnytos]

Off eBay.

[bucc4life]

thanks it looks really nice

[CameraMan7410]

dude, this thing looks sick! (in a good way)

may i ask what lighting your using. im setting up a ten gallon also and need ideas.

[sonnytos]

Thanx my man! On this video I've had a Dual Satellite by Current. 2x40Watts. I dual daylight ( 10K/65K ), and one dual actinic (420nm/460nm/ bulbs. About a month ago I upgrade my system with a metal halide. Now it is a real sick lookin' tank:-) I'll put up a video soon.

When set up a nano you have to pay even more attention to the 2 rules of thumb : 1. water flow, 2. water changes. These are the most important things to keep a successful nano, IMO

BTW, what kind of metal halides do u have?

[CameraMan7410]

i dont have metal halides for my ten gallon im setting up, but on my 58 gallon, i have a 400 watt retro fit. i would go for MH on my ten gallon, but i want it to be low budget, and i had some PC's laying around. i may upgrade to T5 HO in the future though.

[sonnytos]

Yeah, I meant your 58 G, because I checked your videos, and I noticed that you might have metal halides,that's why I asked.

I think retro fits are the best, but the bulbs means a lot too. My favorite brand is Reeflux, very nice combination of white/blue.

T5's are almost as nice as MHs.

Good luck to your project, and don't bother to drop me an email if you have any questions..

[CameraMan7410]

alright ma. thanks. my ten gallon is cycling. i really want to keep clams, and i have a niger in the 58 gallon, so i dont really trust him with clams. lol

[leavegrandmaalone]

Wow!

Lovely tank, fantastic looking corals.

Can i ask do you use your powerhead just to keep surface moving or do you have another for the corals and underwater flow?

Nice coralline algae too!

[sonnytos]

Thank you for the kind words!

I use the canisters intake and a Koralia-nano for surface agitation, and a mini Rio powerhead ( with a Hydor 360 rotating head )for water movement. I also have a HOB refugium with built in skimmer.

YEAH, CORALLINE RULES:-)

[reggie503]

HOW DO U STACK THE ROCKS

[sonnytos]

Few plastic sticks screwed into the rocks.
