Hello friends, I'd like to tell you about my idea-system for 400 liters, the way of keeping it will be completely different from the usual. I have to translate my messages with a translator and then ask English-speaking friends to check it, because the translator can translate so that only he can understand what is written. ) So, back in 2009 I started my first saltwater aquarium. The difficulty of keeping a marine aquarium in our country is its cost. My income per month-500 dollars, and even the electricity bill for me a significant expenditure. Allow yourself a standard set of equipment for an aquarium of 400 liters, I just can not. So I have to think of different ways to make everything cheaper. This I can help many people in our country also have a marine aquarium at home. And for the sake of it is worth the effort. And it's just very interesting to come up with something new. ) So, once I already had an aquarium of 500 liters and from it remained a stand and glass. Glass was 12mm, but unfortunately I broke the front glass, and glass of this thickness costs about $100 per square meter. I can't afford to buy such glass right now, so I used the lower remaining 12mm glass, and bought 8mm thick side and front glass. The height is reduced to 45cm and the resulting aquarium 1700x550x450 mm. That's about 400 liters.Some of the rocks are live rocks and some are DIY rocks. I made them according to my own technology, here on the forum in the theme of the rocks I have already posted a video. Mix-cement, dolomite, chalk, toilet paper. ))) Toilet paper is needed in the mixture because it contains cellulose, which then will eat bacteria and the rocks will be formed additional pores. I'll post this part of the story for now, translate it, check it out, and then I'll tell it further.
