Thats correct. Lol
What should i put in it?

What should i put in it?

As less as you can.

It might sound boring, but a pair of clowns? Maybe spend big on the pair.

If I had the opportunity to work with this, I'd have as less diversity in corals as possible to limit chemical warfare. I'd go a hammer/frogspawn garden and let the clowns make their home amongst them.

A few yellow coral gobies.

Corals wise I was thinking
A Ric garden down the bottom ledge
Some tenicals lps corals the next level
Two nice sps Colany up the top rear
Along the front I was think different types of Zoas growing up the rock ledge.

I had both (mind you in a bigger tank), they just stuck to their respective corals and didn't really care about the other. I would do it again.

 

[TunaBlue]

Kinda had a impluse buy...mmmmk

 

[Savage Henry]

Those clowns are awesome, but remember, nothing else.

My clowns are quite feisty and I would hate to think of what they'd do to my cardinals in a small tank.

Hi TunaBlue,

I'm thinking of buying a MarinePac 3 as well - just wondering if I would need anything else besides the MarinePac, heater and pump to get a Marine setup in a Fluval Edge? (Total aquarium noob here)

I'll be keeping a close eye on this thread :)

Cheers.

Equipment wise.
Heater
Pump
Nano chiller for summer.
If you want your lights to replicate a location clouds, thunderstorms, different colours eg warm white morning, full spec lunch time and deep blue at night you need a blue fish controller.
About 6 months waiting for it all to be built as its hand built, 3d printed, cnc routered.
If you go to the saltwater conversion theres a heap of info...
No it was totaly not as easy to put together as the video...
Cheers

But but, what about a tiger blenny or helfire goby or yellow watchman shrimp!!!

 

[riley]

were did you get those clowns they look sick

 

[TunaBlue]

were did you get those clowns they look sick

My local fish shop is reef secrets...
They were bred by photon clowns.
One looks like it's got a bit of a helimt and the other has a strange bullet hole on the side coloration.

Thanks - is the wave generator still needed with the MarinePac?

Which air pump are you using with it?

Still on the fence about getting one - do you think its worth it?

 

[TunaBlue]

You on

you only need a wave pump if you want sps or high flow lps as the return pump provides enough flow...
Saying that im using the ecotech wave makers.... hint hint.
Also the reef secerets got a order when i was in the area.... sooooo....
