well, after* a neglected aquarium, lot of time thinking about this and see a lot of tank building threads, I've decided to upgrade my system.
Actually my tank is a FOWLR BareBotton (just 3 Corals, lol)
length* x* width x height
100cm x 45cm x 55cm
equipment:
Skimmer: Reef Octopus DNW-150
2 Powerheads. Koralia Evolution 1400
ilumination:20 Royal Blue, 12 Cool white, 2 Warn White, 2 UV Leds. distribuited in 2 modules. (will be updated too)
DIY ATS
System total Volume:
245 liters in tank + 45 liters in Sump
a little overview picture:
ok, i want to embed my system under my livingroom stairs. the idea could be this:
the things is, that to conserve the aesthetics, we need to change the actual tank measures.
I would like the measures be that are in the picture above:
length* x* width x height
100cm x* 65cm x 45cm (height is wrong in picture)
in that way, i have some questions and doubts
the tank height is too short? could have some problem with a 45cm height?* do I should consider something for this height?
i know, my system volumen will increase in about 60 liters, because i hope to have
290 liters in tank + 70 liters in SUMP* (aprox.)
then, Do I should some considerations about flow rate in tank or Skimmer capacity?
i could start my new future Mixed reef with my actual equipment.
i would like to recieve* all your opinions and advices,
regards from Venezuela.
