It gets awfully cold in moscow I am sure you will have a couple heaters for the tank.

No heating is not the problembut to cooling downm I have to use a Teco Refrigerator.. I have constantly 27 degree in the aquarium.

The HQI give a lot of heat.

My quick calculation from metric to US... you have about a 80 gallon tank. To me that's certainly big enough to be out of the nano range and in with the 'normal' size tanks.

Are there many people there in Moscow that have aquariums? Do you have a Local Fish Store or do you get everything thru the internet?

Nice, I like the ceramic rock.

Hi Ron,

In Russia we have a quit big community.also you find some good shop for fishes, corals etc.. but some stuff i order trough internet like the LED Lamps.which I should get hopefullly next week.:spin3:

Hi Martin,

So how long has the new tank been set up? And post a full tank shot when you get a chance. Cool to hear that there is a community of reefers and LFS for you there in Moscow. You know some of us in the the USA really don't know what life is like outside our country. The only time I've been to Europe was 40 years ago to see the motorcycle races at The Isle of Man (and visit Scotland and the south coast of England... all on a 1971 Triumph Tiger 650cc).

 

[swissbutcher]
