Hi,
Thanks, yes definitely i will be posting some pics of one the tanks as other is little unwell. However i have some queries regarding reef? I have been maintaining FO saltwater. i needed to know regarding reef ?? has anybody done reef tank with only using refugium as a filter ?? if yes, then what is the ratio of the refugium to the tank volume say about 3000 gallons??

 

[Aliasger]

Here is one tank! The other tank is just next but is been treated.

Nice. Welcome to R2R

WoW! Welcome too R2R .. can you tell us a little About the tanks and set up ....:D i would say you would need a refugium of at least 10-20% of Total volume ..

 

[GatorScott]

Wow. Amazing!

Great looking tank, Welcome!

 

[Aliasger]

Thanks. Well i am using a TMC system 10000.

So you mean, if the tank is 10000 L the size of the refugium would 1000 L ? Has anybody tried reefing without a refugium? I mean do you actually need reactors like nitrate or phosphate ? I know we need calcium but don't know about other reactors. If yes, then for 10000L of tank what capacity should i use a nitrate reactor?

No i mean if Your dt is 1000 Ltrs you would need 10-20% of 1000 so iT would be 100 -200 Ltrs
