I am getting 3 pairs of SMALL wide banded clowns or LATZ clowns, I wanted to do this...

3x50liter tank which will be all connected to each other Via a overflow.
1xCanister filter with built in UV this will be filled with Media.

Their will no corals or inverts. Daily 10% water changes. Im going to have 5LBS of LR per tank and a 1'' sand bed.

This is what I want to do, until I move them to a...

4ft
2ft
2ft tank with a divider down the middle. One pair will be sold.

why keep asking the same question in new threads? You basically only changed one thing on your setup-to-be, so why not just say it on the other thread? Also, there wasnt even any specific question in this thread, so i wouldnt expect a whole lot of response to this one.

I have to agree with sir_dudeguy. I've seen a lot of different posts about this subject, not even sure what you're looking for with this one. Might be best to start one thread and put all your ideas/questions there -- you'll get better feedback that way.

Sorry I lost that thread and cant seem to find it.

I wanted to know how I should filter these tanks?

For filtering, I'd plumb them into a sump and have another 20-30 pounds of live rock in it. With sufficient flow rate, live rock is the most efficient filtering method we have to date. The sump would give you other benifits as well.

Ok I should go with natural filtration? I can get another small tank and fill it with LR.

Same thread over and over and over and over

Yes but I keep losing it because my CP gets rid of it after 12 hours.

whynot go into your profile and look for your posts, then you'll find it.

When you are in your control panel (My Reef Central), the default is to only show threads with new posts in the last day. Just change the drop down at the bottom to a longer period of time. Then you will see all of your threads for that timeframe.

or you can click the search button just above each of your posts. I'm not talking about the one at the top of the page, just the one right next to where it shows your web page icon if you have one, or your buddy list thing at the top of each post.

Click on this button! It's always better to just have one thread going instead of multiples.
