In near future I will reorganize aquascaping. I want to move rocks to the midle of bottom for making more places for mounting corals.
 
sump is build in standard 80 L tank with 25 L small tank. In this small i have skimmer and water flow from tank into this small after skimer goes outside to sump and there is return pump.
on picture you can see skimmer with PO4 reactor:

toda i have installed over my reef tank two Sun Pacific Black Python CRP Led 3 channels lamp.
together 320W over 420L tank. For aclimatization are working at 60% power and maximum 6 hrs/day with 120 min. sunrize and sunset.
Tommorow after glass cleaning i will put pictures of tank.
 
no, i have no mechanical filtration, only Skimmer. Detrytus is filtered by corals and skimmer.

Tunze hydrofoamer is making bubles. Body of the skimmer is made DIY by my kolegue.
 
When i will be cleaning skimmer body i will make picture of it.
Thank you for your opinion. I hope that this tank will be even more nice than now, when i everything reorgenize.
 
I have just moved my Sump to room behind wall. Installed NJ6000 pump is making rather big water movement. But I am waiting for JEBAO DC9000.
As I promised i have few pictures of my filtration system:

1) Skimmer with Tunze pump. rather noisy, i have to think about silikon between pump and skimmer body. Inside of 200mm skimmer body I put old Rowa Phos box.

4) complete filtration system. But i see that this sump is rather to small for 500L tank.

Great is that it is quite silent and has power controler with soft start. There is some problem with oring during assembling after cleaning for example, but it is not very big problem. it is realy good option.
 
hello, my setup was modified. I have sold my BlacPacific Led Lamps and move to T5 lamps.
Few new corals death. green tumida stops growth under leds. now after lamp change tumida is growing again. most interesting thing is with cyano, what was big problem. after dosing VSV + additional NH4NO3 cyano gone away :). I know NH4 is not good for reef. it can be only on the baegining during tank start. but in old tanks is not present. but cyano is only in old tank. NH4 make tank younger and not good for cyano. but is it good for corals? future shows us.
