Aquarium Advice FINatic
Im really happy...im finally going to set up a 65 gallon tank for some seahorses (hoping for some redei however you spell it lol).
I might get some pipefish but im sort of concerned on the whole thing of introducing diseases through wild caught pipefish. Other than the seahorses and possibly the pipefish ill probably add a small jawfish and some inverts for cleaning up the tank.
its going to be a 65 gallon with about 45-85 pounds of fiji live rock with some introduced copepods. 5 different types of macroalgae like caulerpa prolifera and red gracileria algae. a 3 tube bulb by i think all glass aquariums with various bulbs....the lighting will be decided really when i decide all the stuff im keeping in the tank.
40 pounds of tahitian moon sand. and a 50 gallon sump/refugium wiht variuos macroalgaes and a ton of mangrove plants for filtering the water.im really excited about the mangrove filtration thing since it sounds interesting how they filter water and if you do it right your tank will benefit greatly from it. my sump is gonna be a 50 gallon rubbermaid if possible since i need all the space since some of the mangroves are about 24-36 inches tall lol.
had to share im just so excited! i can tell you more detailed info about it if you want its just that right now i dont remember a lot of it and dont feel like typing really detailed info unless someone wants to know lol.
