[Drakal]

Thanks a lot !

Wow! Im in love with your planted tank. Its awesome!
Im working on an 18" cubed planted. Its ready to go but I need to drive 3hrs away to a lfs that has an awesome planted section.
Do you use co2 in that system?
Im a noob when it comes to freshwater, lol.
Oh and......

Yeah i use CO2 and lean fertilization with dosing pumps (just like you would dose alk/ca/mg in a reef tank, i dose tarces/nitrates/phosphates/potassium)

Hi everyone ! Sorry if my english is not on point !


I'm Drakal, 30 yo, i live in France and obviously, i love aquariums.

I have a freshwater one (1yo), asian style, 180L :

And i started a reef tank 2 months ago, with a red sea max nano. Everything is going "great", i guess... Aptaisias, valonia, the usual stuff ! Tank cycled really fast, i used live rocks, "live" sand and i feed phyto everyday (i have a culture already in place to feed artemias for my freshwater tank)
CUC is in place, and a pair of captive breed clowns since few days (but one of them have a little issue, i opened a post about that)

Thanks !

Welcome! Glad you joined

Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID). Maybe two threads - one for the gorgeous tank pictured and another for your reef tank - but they'll be yours so its entirely up to you what you want to do.

This is a good reference book type online article I still review:

The Supreme Guide To Setting Up A Saltwater Reef Aquarium

This article was sponsored by @MarineDepot at www.marinedepot.com. Introduction The marine environment is one of the most complex systems on the planet. The aquarium you are about to set up is only a tiny sliver of the vast ocean, but it is no...
