Aslam's Shallow Cube.

[Aslam Abraham]

Hello everyone, being a member on R2R, thought its time I share my build.
This time round, I decided on something small as I am a lazy reefer.
I will be implementing the zeovit method as I had most success using this method for sps in the past.
The tank will be setup in the next coming weeks, after which I will post pics.

Cube : 600 x 600 x 500 (height) 10mm starfire rimless
water level at 450mm skinny overflow

Sump: 2 chambers, 1st chamber houses the skimmer, 2nd, zeo reactor and return
there is a small r.o resevoir next to the sump.

Skimmer: Bm Curve 7

Flow: x2 Tunze 6055's on a controller

Lights: Ati 6 x 24watt Sunpower

Heating: Eheim Jaeger 150 watt

Cooling: Hailea 300A

Auto top up: Elos
