My Tank Thread
It’s taken me a long time to accept bare bottom but I’ve seen some really exemplary tanks bare bottom and I’m now a fan, if done right!I’m so excited! This thread will be coming alive in the near future.
I will be ordering a Naked Ocellaris pair from LiveAquaria when the time comes to start stocking it. Other than those two, I’m not sure what else I want. The skimmer is rated at 75g for a heavy bioload, 120g for a medium bioload, and 160g for a light bioload. I love minimal aquascapes, so I don’t plan on a bunch of rock in the display; I’ll use MarinePure in the sump to carry the weight. I’m also heavily considering a bare-bottom setup because I love the ability to easily clean the tank and not worry about detritus buildup. I will miss the look of sand, but maintenance and stability are my priorities.
I overskim my tanks by that’s because I grossly overstock them! Ha!
