Beautiful tank Yano! I just broke down my tank (just had my first child, and now have another on the way), but will definitely be using your tank as an inspiration when I get back into it.

Thanks, maintain a low level of nutrients without altering the correct biological balance of the aquarium is the key to this.

I would like to know if you disturb (e.g. stir or vacuum) your sand bed from time to time. If so, how often.

Thank you.

Thank you.

No, only in the back corners I siphoned approximately every 3-4 months to remove the coarser grains of sand or shell remains that tend to accumulate there by the suction effect of the vortech.

 

[jason78]

So can you tell us you average weekly maintenance?

 

[yano]

So can you tell us you average weekly maintenance?

Nothing special, I think .... weekly water change of 5% approx. siphoning detritus of sump.
Clean cup of skimmer, glass (each 3-4 days) and water test (kh, ca, mg and sometimes potassium).
Add elements manually:
- kh daily.
- Calcium 3x week.
- Magnesium 2x week.
- Strontium 1x week.
- Iodine 3x week.
- Fe 3x week.
- Potasium 1x 2 weeks.
- P. Xtra + Aminoacids + Coral vitalizer 2x week.

 

[DiscusHeckel]

I would like to know why you dose Fe?

Thanks

Beautiful tank. Maybe you mentioned it, but how deep is your sand bed?
