Being totally new to saltwater aquariums myself, I may be totally off on this..but as far as I know, the domino damsel might be a bit of a problem, since they grow into very aggressive adults. Also, I hear that they start looking ugly as adults too, as their white domino spots fade over time...

Out of curiosity, what is the flow provided by the stock pump in the tank (is there even one? Im assuming its there somewhere and water is pumped back out through the spraybar). So its a 20x flow after taking the base flow of the setup into consideration ? Also, I have a 900 l/hr internal power...

Hummm..that can be an option. I will take a look at it and see what I can find.... Shipping here is always a problem though. If I had known that I would be getting into this hobby, I would have bought some equipment from the states when I was living there and bought it over here :grr: Worth a...

Hummm...I think I seriously underestimated the flow that I need. I havent been able to find the Hydor Korelia anywhere in this city so far. Most likely I will have to make do with 2-3 separate powerheads. 2400 l/hr would mean that I need 6 of these little guys... that wont do at all !!! Oh...

Went to the LFS today to buy another powerhead. Seems like you can never have enough of these things. Now I have a question... This is a tiny compact little powerhead rated at 375 l/hr. I want to keep two of these in my tank, possible one near the top (close to water level) and one at the...

Thank you Trod ! I have browsed through a fair shair of marine aquarium fourms, but people here have always been the most patient and friendly (especially with newbies), which is why I'm glad I decided to start my adventures on the salty side here :lol: . I will keep this thread update with any...

Thanks for the welcome to the 550 club Seffie :D I'm pretty excited about the whole thing, this being my first real try at keeping an aquarium (my disaster with a freshwater setup was almost 10 years ago and I was very clueless back then). I think the moisture getting into my old batch of salt...

Thank a lot for the reponse Xebadir ! Im going to try the other salt brand first, but acidifying the mixture will be a last resort. You mention pH stability as well. Its going to be interesting to see how that pans out. Im worried that this may not end up being a solution to the problem, but...

Yes, I had my little waterheater in there and the water at 25 C before mixing the salt. It didnt really seem to help in preventing the precipitate. So far the pH reducer seems to have done the trick. If I can figure out the correct dosing for the acid when i mix my water, would this be a safe...

Hello everyone, I recently decided to take the plunge into keeping a nano reef. I am a bit new to the hobby, having (poorly) kept a freshwater setup many many years ago. But times have changed, and after doing much research, I felt that I was ready to take up this new challenge. What could...
