20 Gal FOWLR

Postby Pax » Thu Jan 03, 2013 1:19 am

Hi, just a newbie on this hobby.. share ko lang tong 20Gal FOWLR (Planning to be Mix Reef if medyo sa tingin ko kaya na)

Cycling Start: Dec 29, 2012
Day 1
Image
Meron akong nilagay na DIY Skimmer (Wood Airstone Driven) pero inalis ko meron ako ginawang mga mods pa kasi ambilis napupuno ang collection cup.. (or baka bibili nalang ako ng HOB skimmer for nano if meron na available dito sa davao)

5 Kilos of rocks palang andyan (which is kulang)

Day 4
Image

nag dagdag ako ng another 5 kilos of rocks (Live Rocks)

Sumpless nga pala setup ko plan ko sana may sump pero sabi kasi ni kuya (nung nasa petshop) pwede naman raw ako mag sumpless either a HOB Filter or OHF gagamitin ko.. mag weekly waterchange lang talaga ako sa maintenance and provide a skimmer if kaya.. pero ok rin raw wala.. madami narin daw kasi nag setup or nag success na sumpless / skimmerless which is true naman including him..

just waiting nalang ako na matapos yung cycling process
Im using Natural Sea Water po..

Q> gano ba talaga katagal ang cycling process if kayo ang tatanungin? using NSW

Thanks

Neither NSW/Saltmix. Each and every tank has its own personality. kaya it may take 2 weeks or it may take 1-2 months depending on your bacterial growth

Inabot lang po kami ng 17 days sa pag cycle dun sa tank nung friend ko, gamit namin NSW sa 30gal DLBD tank tapos 8 KG of DRIED rocks and 2 inch sandbed tapos OHF.

Inumpisahan namin nilagyan namin ng dead fish na galing dun sa tank ko (2 1/2 inch na wrasse halos kamamatay lang) T_T tapos mga 5 pinch ng fish food (pellets) tapos after 1-2 days nagkaroon ng ammonia spike, tapos tinanggal ko na ung deadfish after 2 days and ung pellets hinayaan ko na lang madissolve ng tuluyan. Tapos regular checking lang ng nitrate, ammonia, nitrite. No water change na ginawa puro top off lang ng purified water. So ayon nakapag lagay na kami ng isang damsel dahil alam ko hardy un tsaka isang fire fish 1 week na sila ngayon sa tank nung friend ko.

HTH :D

so possible pala yung ginawa talaga nung kilalang reefer rito.. kung sabagay.. GURU narin sya kung baga.. pero mag aantay nalang ako.. la pa kasi stock nung mga kits na kailangan ko.. (Hydro and Water Test Kits)

Possible ba na ang powerhead(pump like seaquest) maging wave maker? or need ko mag purchase ng wave maker talaga..

Bro mas maganda yun, mas malaki ang filtration :D :D :D
Lahat na ng pwedeng ilagay na pampa baba ng phosphate at nitrate kasya sa sump. Kahit anung itanim mo sa sump pwede kasi maluwag. :)

yung ngayon narrow yung edition ng DIY skimmer ko.. kaso parang ganon parin.. after ilang hours lang.. medyo 1/4 na yung isang bote ng (1 litter) soda.. ginaya ko yung stilo ng MANE skimmer.. na nasa baba ang collection cup.. (hose connected from skimmer on tank down to bottle external)

wala kasi akong mahanap na medyo maliit na skimmer.. if yung resun sk300 medyo parang malaki eh.. if sk-05 naman.. walang available dito sa davao..

pinag plaplanuhan ko ring palitan ng HOB filter yung OHF para hose nalang yung naka konekta sa loob instead of powerhead.. pero if that case.. kelangan ko na talaga mag lagay ng wave maker for nano..

just waiting for my BIG MAMA tank to dispose (its freshwater with 1 Oscar, 1 Pleco and 5 Silver Dollars) para magamit ko yung iba for lightings and other stuffs na kelangan ko sa new hobby ko

Taasan mo yung chamber mo na naka-expose sa hangin. Pag sobrang lubog kasi ang airwood driven skimmer, mabilis talaga siyang mapupuno kasi nagiging parang airlift na siya. Try mo na 1/2 lang ng bote yung submerged sa tubig.

MAME-style skimmer din ang balak ko since napaka-liit lang ng footprint at hassle-free. :)

Marty

Kung magpapabili ka ng mga Queen or Jebo di rin effective yun, around 800-900 pesos ata yung ganun tapos kailangan mo pa ng pump at kailangan mo pa rin siya i-modify para gumanda yung skimmer output. (check my thread re modifications) Kaya mas okay pa rin yang airwood skimmer, tipid pa sa kuryente since nasa 6w lang yung airpump na gagamitin para diyan.

Marty
