Nice tank. How long has it been setup and what T5 tube combo are you using?

 

[sin05_omar]

hey Sahin,

Tank has been running just about 2 years .

the lighting bulb are as follows :

1 x ATI Coral Pro
1 x ATI Purple Plus
4 x ATI Blue Plus

Looks like a very shallow tank. Love the barebottom look!

Nice. Thanks for the T5 tube combo. I think you should try the new ATI Coral Plus. It is a sweet looking bulb. I think 2xATI Actinic, 2xATI Blue+ and 2xATI Coral Plus will look awesome; It will look very much like a Radium 20K appearance.

How do you manage nitrates without a deep sand bed? Can you post a photo of your sump please? Many thanks.

since you have no fish, do you still need a protein skimmer?

hey sahin...i started out with two ati colour pro.... but both the bulbs i got was wacked... and the store couldnt get replacements in so they offered tge blue tubes... i would love to try the combo you suggested once these current bulbs aged.

hey napster(very fond memories of getting songs from there)... i do not have a skimmer... i use a scrubber... picture of sump coming up...
