I'm planning to get a canister filter, and keep those crushed liverocks and bacteria there, will it helps. And which brand is more reliable in term of value, Eheim, Hydor or Tetra?

How to regulate an overstock tank? weekly water change, RO and bacteria boaster, canister filter does it help?

Since nobody have tried it in nanotank, how can we proof that canister filter and Ro and bacteria boast will not help is true. I might agreed with you since some of u, might already been experienced enough for 10 or 20 years in marine fish keeping. Just wanted to find out is there any solution...

That's the challenge for a nano tank, in order to keep the water pristine, water change on weekly. I was seeking advise whether a canister filter with crushed liverock, and RO water will help. When the fish grow bigger i will set them free by renting a boat, taking me to a pristine ocean and...

Kurt u got the point right, the right question here will be, if u add an Eheim, Hydor, or Tetra canister filter, replacing the filter with crush liverock, adding Bacteria Boast, and also replace the water with RO. Will it help to sustain minimal or low nitrite?

Thanks for the info :-D Thanks for all the info. Generally, i just wanted to know, whether canister filter Eheim, Hydor or Tetra will help improve or tackle the biological loads of my nano tank considering the fact, i'm doing water change on weekly basis as i knew if i don't do it, my...

Will Canister Filter help, which brand? Well, i can sustain and maintain the water at pristine level, thru weekly water changes. But the question and challenge here is, how to delayed water change for nano tank for 1 month? I've bought lots of test kit, to test the water forthnightly. I'm...

For a nano tank, Is there any way we can do to counter the nitrite problem beside having 20% water change on weekly basis? I've experienced 0.6 and 0.4 to date but after water change get back to 0. Fortunately no casualty during water change. I was thinking of installing Eheim, Hydor or Tetra...

I've been maintaining the salinity at that level for few months, there are no problem with the fishes they came out actively compare to the high salinity level earlier. The disadvantage of the nano tank is that, u are required to change water on weekly basis, else the nitrite will goes up. I...

Well, i think all these marine fish belong to the ocean, that's the best we can do. What we have here in order to achieve and sustain ideal water parameters in a nano tank, is a weekly change, and forthnight check on the water parameters with all these kits available. This also allowed to test...

Well, jus a normal hydrometer can do the salinity check, i've been keeping it for sometime. Not plan invest so much in test kit. For Anemones, if the salinity level is maintained at 1.025-1.026, i'm scared the fish won't be like it. Hence, it's pretty hard to keep anemone & fish in nano tank...

At this stage, the blue tang is trying to adapt with its new friend, i don't see any aggresion in him or her. At the moment, the water parameters are in control, the fish has more space to swim around rather than bumping or restricted by the rock boundaries. Which one u recommend? I wonder...

Keep it up! make urself comfortable.

Pertaining the salinity, This is the salinity level when i first started the tank I noticed the fish are hiding inside the liverock and less active in the tank Then i consult several local fish shop, they advised me to reduce to within 1.020 - 1.023 Once, i reduced the salinity, i see all...

The blue tang have been in the nano tank since i first set up the tank on May 4th, 2008 It's more than a month. So far i've no problem with Ammonia, and nitrite, control them thru water change. This is the first set up, which i've no knowledge on the water parameters & lightings...

"1.023-1.025" that's kinda high for fish

What is your water parameter? sudden change in fish apetite indicate something is not right with the water condition. Have u try spectrum food product?

That's a nice tank and effort you've chips in. What kind of chiller do you use to keep and maintain the water temperature? are those metal halide? or t5? or jus normal marine lighting? what kind of food you feed the anemone? where is the Protein skimmer?

At this moment, i keep monitoring my water quality, and salinity to ensure the fish are in comfortable level on weekly basis. So far, the fish are still fine. May i know what kind of problems if the tank remain small but the fish is growing bigger and bigger each day.

what sort of lighting is recommended? i've heard expert recommending Arcadia lighting. For water quality, what sort of parameters, you are looking at? PH 8.4 NO2 0 NH 0 Salinity 1.020 - 1.021 KH 8 drops Please advise. Water temperature is 80 Fahrenheit?

Anyone has any idea? There are certain species of anemone which does not require chiller.

Hello everyone, my frens used to call me Jbozz, tats my nick when i'm part of the pro cs team as a flanker. I've started keeping saltwater fish few months ago, you can find the link below. I find it pretty interesting becos there are alot to be learn rather than keeping the fish for sake of...

Just started this hobby 1 month ago. 2 or 3 yrs ago my friend persuaded me to start, but i wasn't prepared to give it a try. Today, finally i'm ready to start one. I did water change once a week, to improve water condition. This is the link to my little 1.5 ft (30x19x26cm) tank YouTube -...
