Fantastic Tank iwan!

What do you do for circulation? Do you also maintain a refugium, or does Zeovit eliminate the need for one?

Circulation: 27000 l/h done by a Tunze and an closed-loop.
I do not have a refegium. You reach a very low nutrient level by using the basic Zeovit-system.

I love your use of color repetition...so many tanks have too much variety. Yours is an outstanding color composition...your tank is the work of a true artist.

Thanks for sharing.

Hey Iwan,

Can you explain to me what : ATI 50% B+, 50% AB spec means.
I know there bulbs, and I can find ATI bulbs I just dont get the B+, AB part. Your lighting is sweet.

Amazing tank!

Are you running DSB or BB ? Is not clear to me

The basics of Zeovit are:

- Zeovit
- bacs
- Zeofood
- coal
- Zeostart

I use the AA from Prodibio (ReefBooster)
The sand layer in the tank is very thin 1-2".

Brilliant! I love the aquascaping.

Are you using the new 12xt5 Giesemann matrix?
How do you like the total t5 setup?

Thanks for sharing! I always enjoy your pictures.
