Hi guys today i bought some new piece of equipment for the setup,it's the Tunze Comline 9011 Doc skimmer,i decided to go for it as it can handle 1000lts keeping in mind my setup will be approx 800lts so got some extra lts on my side :) plus it has a small footprint something i needed for my pre fabricated sump,plus it works with only 22watts,now all that remains is the postman doing the delivery :) if any of you guys are using this skimmer pls give me feedback

Hi guys so things begining to shape up and how system will work, in the meantime i started producing my diy liverock, quite some fun now I am in the proccess of drying the rock, shortly enough will begin the rock treatment due to the rock salt and portland cement, one thing I am happy about is that for the first time the rock came super porous and quite light and hard, the receipe I used was 3 pts crushed coral sand, 2 pts portland, 1pt coarse sea salt collected from our local salt pans due that malta is an island it's an old hard job here nowadays, will post some pictires as well hope you enjoy :)

Selection of live rocks small pieces and some quite large pieces :) obe think I learned is that the more creative the better and you have to give it quite some time to dry at least 36hrs
