My 100g SPS Tank (at beginning) - desire many advices.

about your electricity, going towards Tunze products would be the best thing to do. They are high quality, and use VERY little electricity compared to your quiet one 3000.

Also the Tunze 9055 for flow would be good as well! They are smaller in size so it would look better.

Who built your tank? It is beautiful =)
 
thanks Serioussnaps,Frankysreef:)

about lighting....
I respect all two opinions of Serioussnaps, Frankysreef.
Important thing is that I am not doing judgment about color of coral exactly.
What is as good result..:confused:
I want to know two people's experience more in detail.
Selection my lighting...
Can not exceed 400w.(because of electric charges..)
Need your help.

about feeding...
I did not feed Cyclopeese.
Therefore, could not know result.
It is 'Polyp Lab Reef-Roids' that I am feeding.
Is feeding after suspension of all pumps once on 3 day.
I can not know whether result is good.
It could see that take however..

about ZEOvit
Will not try before solve other all problems.

about Mg
SPS coral Mg of most suitable for color how much be ?

I want to hear your experience and help need.
I'm beseeching successful SPS Keeping.

pickle311// Welcome to Seoul.:)
damienkee// thanks. Is going to continue update about my tank.

Thank to all inputs.;)
 
1300 is a good target on Mg...1250-1350 is ok

like i said less aquablues and more blue plus's along with 1 extra sun bulb

how high off the surface is your lights?
 
thanks, Kinetic

I love Tunze. It works much electric furnace that is less.
Kinetic, What is 9055?
Perhaps, Nonostream 6055 ? DOC Skimmer 9015?
If 6055 is right..
Because the South Korea uses electricity of 60Hz, because European product can not use ..
I'm waiting the US of 6055's launch.:)

My tank was made commiting to salt water tank manufacturer in the South Korea.
I love Simple open-tank's form.

thanks input :)
 
I'm sorry, I meant to say Tunze 6055 streams =)

They are amazing powerheads, I think they'd work very well for you! I'm waiting for a few 6045's for my tank. I'm planning on getting four of the 6045's and running them off a SEIO multicontroller.

I'd highly recommend the Tunze skimmer you listed too. I have a few Tunze Nano 9005 skimmers on my small tanks, and they are virtually silent, and skim very well! Such little sound, very little electricity used, that can't be beat =) It also takes up very little space! Great quality, I would go for it.

I like open tanks as well. Yours is beautiful. I'm getting a tank that is open like yours. A 36" x 20" x 22" tank without any bracing or trim, so it has a polished rim.

Hopefully I can make it half as good as yours =)

As for lighting suggestions, a single 250watt SE might not be enough. I would recommend a 250watt HQI DE instead. They are known to be brighter and cover more area, and they're still 250watts.

Some light fixtures that are good and I would recommend would be Maristar 250watt + t5's, or AquaMedic T5/MH pendants. Those don't have as much t5's as you listed. You could also go for Sfigoli lighting fixtures. They come from italy. Goto www.aquariumobsessed.com for more info. They have some amazing equipment.

Goodluck! I'll keep looking at this thread for your updates =)
 
Your advice is appreciative every time. Serioussnaps.

Mg will target 1300.
My lighting is about about 6" in water's surface.
I'm going to add Sunpro(or Middway) bulbs(2ea) to your advice.
Thank about this.

Do you need my other info?
Thank at more advices.:)

thanks Kinetic.

Had guessed that is 6055. :)
Is doing present 6060x2 running.
Is going to make use of 7095 multi controller to make waves.
6060 may be alternated by 6055.
I love Tunze~~

Efficiency that Tunze's DOC Skimmer is so small to my tank.
I did not consider, although there is 9020.
Skimmer that attract my interest is mini-bubbleking 200.

Only HQI does not consider.
Whether it is Only T5s or it is combo ..
I knew Sfigoli's Infinity XR4.(400w or 250w and T5s 4 combo)

If is T5 4 combos' lighting, this side is inexpensive.
Giesemann Infiniti
Aqua Medic aquasunlight NG
AquaConnect PowerRiga

I'll update continuously this thread for you.
1st. That should be considered to my tank always...
Insertion of all equipments except chiller to tank's prop
(I don't have the room for tank.)
2nd. save of electric charges

Observe for input plz...Easy word and perfect composition.
I'm sorry because there is word that can not know sometimes.

thanks your input.:)

When state grows worse, is discontinuing purchase of coral.
Coral of fifth picture is from Fiji. Deep violet is Eoteotda.:(
Remainder is all from bally.
I show my bad corals, and I need help.
 
imthe1 your tank is beautiful!

I love open tops and cubes, I'm about to get one myself!

Please post more pics of your tank where we see the whole thing.
 
The_anti_honda// thanks your advice.
BubbleMaster200 is running in the shop which is my customary establishment.
I can't do any assessment about BM200.
It is product of unfinished impression yet.
I take much more interest in mini Bubbleking than BM200. :)
However, there may no be skimmer upgrade in fast work.
I satisfy to my skimmer up to now.:)

eskymick// thaks. I love the look of a cube, too:D

ChinChek787//Color of my SPSis paled.
Also, My SPS is very slow growth.:(
I'm failing to SPS keepping.
Despite good pics is not, it posted pics to get help.

Ceak//thanks. Post more pics for you.
 
I just don't see anything wrong with them. Did you by them as large or small pieces? You will notice smaller pieces grow faster than larger ones do so that may be the "issue".
 
Nice tank! Nice colours. I own a cube the same size!

I run a 250watts metalhide 10.000k aquamedic with 6 t5's 24watts 4 aquablue 4 blue plus. I really love the ati t5 bulbs.
