hi all thought id drop a thread on here and get some help and enjoy the jurney
5 years ago i had a clown and nem tank which i shut down due to house move but i want to do it all again but better !!
this was it 5 years ago and thinking of re creating
i still have the lights for this tank but no other equipment and i guess things have moved on the led lights are a IT2080 unit.. now not sure if i need to upgrade this or not! whats new out there that would benefit the nems or shall i just stick with the leds ?
filtration i guess will be LR which i will have to try and source locally from tank break downs and then leave this 3 months for disease prevention
i do have a roller mate filter but i have seen the Clarisea Fleece Filter which look alot smaller so it maybe worth selling mine and upgrading as i wont have as much room in the sump!
skimmer i guess id go with the nyso range maybe the 220 as i like the looks of these prevesuly and low power consumption
auto top up i have no idea about so looking for a controller id like it so it would bring on a RO unit so i didn't need to have a tank sat with RO water in which saves on space.. is there such a thing ??
Ozone i guess would help with this tank to keep oxygen up so would need help in selecting a unit and a controller i see the red sea one has a built in controller but can be pricey
water movement.. ill go with some kinds of jeabo power heads and there DC return pumps.. i will have to workout how to protect these so not to suck a nem in !! im sure ive seen some 3d printed cages for them but no idea so if anyone has any info please let me know
i have plenty of time on this as i need to get rid of some of the old equipment and re do the fish shed etc
so basically for now i need help selecting equipment
thanks people
