Default My Virgin Rescape Nano Marine Tank

reference to http://www.arofanatics.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=334629
after gathering info and tips from bro here, i did a minor rescape

15" x 15" x 12"(H) tank
800L/hr hang on filter
55w PL light(yet to change to blue/white tube)
8 kg of live rocks/sand

Water Parameter(similar to previous two measurement)
Ammonia/Nitrite 0
Nitrate(yet to get a test kit)
pH 8.3
Salinity 1.0235
Temperature 27.5-30(slightly warmer due to the removal of 12v DC fan x 4 from my setup)

Livestock
found a mini shrimp and a snail while rescaping lol
the coral, i believe, is still alive as it respond to light
intend to keep 1 common clown + another fish(can recommendation?)









removed rocks and sand by 40%
removed 12v DC fan x 4
a "hole" in the center to improve water circulation

hopefully i did the right thing and a better job this time round

thanks

looks much better. still not a very open scape, but suitable for small fish, which you'll be stocking anyway. if you must have a fish other than the clown, add a small dottyback. colorful, hardy, and will be very interesting with your dense scape. if you ask me though you still should look into adding a powerhead or wavemaker in the tank. the koralia nano will be good for this tank.

Hi bro, it looks better now. Now is the most difficult part...waiting...waiting for the tank to be cycled. Take this time to research on the playmate for the clown bah.

The tank is very impressive. The challenge is to keep the water condition good. I think better not add too many fish when you are keeping corals.
