Nano Tank of the month - December
Thanks to all that voted for my tank! I can't believe I actually won
it  !It's my first ever reef tank and I've learned quite a bit from forum. What pursuaded me in the first place to go with a marine tank were all the gorgeous set ups I've seen browsing through this forum. As you can tell, I love color in my tank! I have a 34g Red Sea Max with the following mods: *20K 150W HQI + 2 x 18W PC, R2 5-LED Moon light *Koralia 1 *Current 1/15 Chiller *Deltec Calcium Reactor *Chemi-Pure Elite Live stock includes the following: *Yellow Coris Wrasse *Six Line Wrasse *Yellow Clown Goby *Green Clown Goby *Purple Firefish* *Fridmani Pseudochromis *Blue Flavivertex Pseudochromis Corals: (Not all listed..too many) Mainly: *Florida Ricordia *Yuma Ricordia *Zoanthids *Scolymia *Blastomussa Wellsi My most recent Addition..Flame BTA:  Various:

Uhuru,
Thanks..I've moved some things around and placed it strategically in an area where its out of reach of all the softies except for the Ricordeas at the bottom. So far no ill affects. Eventually I'll need to move it to a bigger tank which is in the planning stages. I'll have to take another FTS and post it. |

Thanks all for the positive coments! I really appreciate it.
ezcompany, I went with the Deltec PF501 with a future tank upgrade in mind.  This model comes with a built in PH probeso you can control the PH with a PH controller. Basically set the controller with a PH range that's recommended for your reactor media. If it goes beyond the specified range it kicks on the selenoid on the C02 tank and drives down the PH to the acceptable level and then closes the selenoid. The Calcium reactor is supplied with water from the system via an aqualifter. I did get the BTA from Dusty at Zoanuts. I must say he's got some of the most awesome corals I've ever seen! Lucky for me he's only 20 minutes away! Here are some pics: Calcium reactor with the controller and aqualifter:  CO2 tank in the stand below:

pbukow,
I ordered the light upgrade through nano customs. It took me a while to put it all together..some soldering was required. If I had to do it over again, I would have let nano customs put it together. It was quite a chore getting everything hooked up right. Here's a pic of the hood open..It only opens so far so I did the best I could to get a pic. The ballast sits on a shelf below the aquarium in the stand. The cover was taken off for this shot. In the middle is the 150w HQI bulb (20k) and to the left and right are the 18w actinics and next to those are the lunar lights.
