Fishgeek's 25 gallon tank

[Fishgeek624]

Finally naasikaso ko na din ang pagpapagawa ng tank kay Mang Ramon and ang gagamitin kong stand.

Tank itself will be arriving hopefully by saturday. Namili na lang muna ako ng materials/accessories to prepare my water.

This is not a cheap hobby

A little background, tank dimensions is 24x24x16 inches pero 24x16x16 lang dun ang display, remaining ay sump for skimmer, return pump and a small area for live rocks, bio material and chaeto.

Skimmer: Resun SK-300
Return pump: Rio Aqua 600
Wavemaker: Sunsun 6W JVP-120
SaltMix : Reef Crystals
naupsell pa ako ng Prodibio products, maganda daw kasi for cycling, oo na lang ako hehe

Will be making this an online journal and hopefully maging avenue for whenever i face aquarium related emergencies!

Men i think mahina return pump mo. Yung nuvo ko na 16gallons stock pump nya is 210gallons per hour. Yung nabili is 159gallons lang.

Check mo muna flow rate. Alam ko yung rio aqua plus 600 nasa 200GPH na siya eh. or try rio 800.

There's no exact numbers.

Pero from what I've read online and on other people's system.

Wavemakers: most do 30x to 40x (of display) water turn over for SPS. LPS and softies 20x to 30x. Too much kasi can cause damage to LPS. Mine is around 30x turn over for wavemaker (not including the return pump).

For return pump somewhere 6x to 10x turn over rate. Mine is around 13x turn over for return
