So, I've got some requests to tell something about my "new" tank...
Long story short, I have a 660 gallon system here in Finland. The DT is 10'10" long, and there is a "basement sump room" in the garage below the main tank.
Basic equipment at the moment... 177gal sump. Water is lifted back up with a Deltec E-Flow 16. There is a ATB Cone skimmer, and it will be upgraded to a bigger model in the future.
In the main tank there are 4 Tunze 6105 streams with a multicontroller, and 2 Tunze Nano streams. I have 4 custom made 144w LED-panels 50/50 10000K/royal blue with few red, cyan and actinic LEDs for color. Also there will be added a 72w royal blue/actinic LED-strip for more color, and it will also be a moonlight fixture. The LEDs are moving away, and I have 3 8x39w T5 lights waiting to be placed. The LEDs had some damage during the building of our house... :worried:
In the basement there is also a heavy duty RO/DI unit with a Tunze 8555 RO Water controller and a Deltec Aquastat 1001 with a Tunze pump to keep the water level right. Dosing is done by a Grotech Tech III using the Balling-method, and I will add some 3 more channels to it.
There is a canister filter full of zeolite, a reactor with phosphate remover, a lot of activated carbon and some Seachem Purigen to keep the nitrate levels down. I haven't had the time to build a nitrate filtration unit yet, nor have I bio pellets yet... We just moved in a week ago, but the tank has been here since may :hmm5:
"Some pictures?" I hear you say... I don't have lots of them, and the whole system is still under construction so only pics from inside the tank for now...
Let's see if I can use this thingy...
