Hi there,
I am planning to finally convert my 40 G Tanganyika to Saltwater. (will take some time, I'm sure)
Anyway I've a couple of questions and would like to get some input.
I'm planning to get a Aqua C Skimmer and "the LR Package" from
Tampa Bay Saltwater, I'll still have the Fluval 405 Canister and I'm
thinking to use it with Poly Pads, Carbon and possibly Chemi-Pure.
I was not planning to do a sump.
For the the light I'd happy to get away with using the 96W CF Coralife
(10'000K/ 03 Act).
2 or 3 Maxi-Jet Powerheads.
Q:
- I've heard a lot about the Aqua C, seems to be a good HOT Skimmer, no?
- The Tampa Bay Satwater Live Rock, Live Sand and cleaner crew package looks pretty good to me, however quite pricey with the shipping...
Any experience anybody with Tampa Bay? Other LR ok?
- to canister or not to canister? Will skimmer and Live Rock do it? Is the canister counterproductive?
- Sump? I'm sure it's better to have one, but I'd have to drill the tank (or get it drilled) yadda yadda...
Sumpless tanks ARE doable, right?
-96W CF OK?
-preparing Saltwater: I can't really put a RO/DI in the bathroom or kitchen or anywhere else at this point.
Anybody using Tap, (dechlorinated, aerated and aged) in Brooklyn?
Is there a place to get RO/DI somewhere in Brooklyn? How the @#%$ do you get that home every week?
many more Q's but 'nuff for now.
