cool but i thought that Quoyi Parrotfish sometimes just die
Can't wait to see this. This thing will be a BEAST!
Nice! Can't wait.Yes, yes she will. Stay tuned, getting some quotes together finally!
I would STRONGLY advise you to look into a closed loop system to provide flow. Its cleaner, cheaper, and requires zero maintenance. The latter being the really good part. You will spend enough time cleaning your gyres. For regular sized tanks they don't make a lot of sense, for huge tanks, they are fantastic.
kind of sort of.. I should snap some pictures of my scape and close loop.. I'm mid project however so it is LOW on the priority list. Depending on what kind of fish you want to have, you have to have some caves and hiding places for them. Many of these table tanks I see look neat (albeit totally unnatural) but they don't have squat for fish habitat. Fish get freaked out if they don't have cover.
I have a 5,000 GPH jebao DC pump that is hooked up to a 6 way ocean motion device that "fires" two ports at once. They are 1" bulkheads. My scape is a series or islands..or rows of islands. The CL outlets are just 45 degree elbows that get tucked into the rockwork at the base of one island and blow across the open space to the adjacent island. You can hide the outlets really effectively with small rocks. I have a pair of xf350 up top as well. The CL just really allows you to get flow in places that you could never get with a conventional powerhead. It is much more than a powerhead which grabs adjacent water and shoots it out at speed. You are grabbing water from one location in your tank and putting it into an entirely different space... which creates lots of "sub currents". No maintenance and UTTERLY silent. Like "is this thing on?" silent.
For a peninsula.. dude.. for sure.
this is going to be epic!
So I am guessing this is going to be a reef and not a FOWLR system?
if so anthying over 30" I think would be a pain. unless do you have a good way to get in the tank to glue down frags and pick up the one the fish broke off.
IMHO if going taller I would just to a FOWLR system. lots of really cool fish for that option.
next I LOVE the placement! that is where I would add a huge tank too if I was building from the ground up.
I 2nd the closed loop idea.
good luck!
I think your scape needs more negative space, but that is just my opinion..and I realize it is a drawing. I added 400lbs of sand and 100gallons of water in my tank last night and of course, now it is all cloudy so I couldn't get pictures.
