Beatiful tank as always Glenn!!! Some questions for you:
-do you have a picture of your rock aquascape when you began your tank?
-do you have your t5 bulbs only over your tank frame with no protection of any splash? No risky?
-can you tell me how many pumps are you using and where do you have them placed? I saw just 2.

Thank you mate!
Thanks m8

I have a movie: 4 years ago


The bulb terminals are waterproof sealed.

Last years acro forrest.
Cut down in august 2016, because of space, light and flow limitation.
This will cause problemen because this density can't be sustained.
I had a consumptions of 4,5dkh ALK and 27ppm Calcium per day.

This is to put it into right perspective...

Thanks m8

200 liter, but connected to my reef.
So waterquality stays pristine.

Fish population is dens but makes feeding a lot easier.

The zeolit "bricks" on the bottom make great hidding place for pods and other small crustaceans which are living from the debris so prevent clogging the buttom up

So from my calculations it's about 52 Gallons? How many butterflies do you have? The reason I ask is I have a 56 Gallon (212 liters) and wanted to have a 3 butterfly's and a few other small fish... do you think that's to much? I have a big skimmer so my water is always in great condition.

I have 5 butterfly's in my tank.
It al depend on circumstances, size, food, water quality, corals, hiding places.
