the setup is sufficient, few suggestions though. the tank is too small for a sailfin tang, do not use the filter floss in the fluval. just run carbon or something in it. if you use filter media it will become a nitrate factory. what is the wattage of the lighting. the lighting may be good for mushrooms, zenia, zoanthids. be careful with the chocolate chip starfish, it will eat fish if it catches them. just a couple thoughts, looks good though

I would think your lighting is sufficient, given that your tank is only 21" deep. I would invest in a skimmer, though. Everyone seems to dislike the Coralife Super Skimmer, but I have one and it's done a great job (with a little tweaking!) and you won't spend a fortune either.

Jims Tank reply
Hi,
Thanks to all the repllies and suggestions. My tank has a skimmer but it is noisy and my wife can't stand it so I run it only at night. It is a Seaclone 100 I forgot to mention that previously. I would like an identificaion of this and any other info..I just dropped it in the tank yesterday was told it is Ricordia but doesn't look like one?

Hi Colin,
Thanks for the reply, my 2-T5 run 18W 10000K and tue actnic 03 flourescent. In my fluval I have the carbon, and sponge inserts along with bio media stuff. My parameters are Nitrite=0 nitrate=<10 Ph=8 Ammonia=0 Calcium over 500ppm Salintiy=1.022 I realize the tang was an incorrect purchase but my son said he would take the tang and the Choc chip starfish if I have problems. I added a Ricordia yesterday but I am not sure if it is I got it cheap. Jim Last edited by daddy01; 11-19-2006 at 06:08 PM.
