I am running successfully in fifth month with the RECYCLED method. Everything is happy and growing well...



Thank You
 
Explain , that systems and ,how long have u had ur setup
The tank is 90G without sump, it's just like a freshwater system, it has only a HOB with an air bubbler common in FW tank. The filter floss on HOB is cleaned everyday, water is changed every 25days from WTP, the water which is changed is same water which was previously in tank and is treated in WTP, which is kept under natural sunlight with just a power head rotating water and doing Oxygenation, the water gets devoid of nutrients and phosphate due to growing macroalgae in WTP, the only loss till date is alkalinity which I dose using seachem fusion2. That way, I save energy, water and cost.
Thanks
 
The system is not new as all LIVESTOCK'S have been transferred from 180G to 125G to 90G,which is almost near to 2 yrs...
90G is near to 5 months.
I had a space constraint.
