Eshops deskmate build

[abryant]

Looking to setup a nano tank with the Eshops deskmate I made a list of all the stuff I need I’m pretty sure I have everything but let me know what you guys think and if I’m missing anything. I’d like to add that this will be my second tank and I have about 7 months experience with my other tank.

I’d definitely add an ATO in that size of a tank

You don’t think I could manually top off?

You'll have to top off every day. otherwise you'll run dry and have salinity issues. ATO was the first and most important item for my #Deskmate . My rate is about 3/4 - 1G per week.

Without an ato your gonna have salinity swings but probably not much more than .01+-. The tunze nano is the way. I would skip on the skimmer for now unless your all about PH.

You could buy in a nano it’s better to have one. I’d replace the skimmer for it

Which DeskMate are you looking at getting?
If it’s the original one I would recommend to upgrade the return pump to a Sicce Micra or Micra+ and the random flow generator from VCA.
