Hello there!
I'm Jay from Lake Macquarie in Australia. I have only been into reef keeping for 2-3 years but can admit that I am an addict!
My previous tank was a Custom 2x1.5ft nano that was a mixed reef. I tried a few different methods over the 2 or so years of its life and have come to love the simplicity of bioplastics
I have taken the learnings from this tank as well as lots of guidance from a few good friends to my new set up. Here's some details of the system;
800x800x500mm with cal flo style weir (which I don't really like)
1000mm high steel stand with painted wood panels held on with magnets
Simple two section sump with inbuilt ato reservoir
Royal Exclusive DC150 for skimming
Teco TC20 takes care of temps and UV when required
Bubble Magus Biopellet Reactor
Jebao Dc12000 return pump pushing through the teco
2 x Jebao RW15 on alternating pulse
Giesemann Infinity 250w + 4x24w
Dosing Fauna Marin Balling Recipe with thur trace elements
Dosing Prodibio bioptim and Biodigest
I started the tank with dried and cleaned rock with a little love rock in the sump to kick start it along
