my DIY bio ball reactor looks like wet/dry filtration. I choose this type because i realize that my main tank will produce more detritus or organic matter in water, so i decide to use bio-ball reactor combine with carbon-bacteria dosing. About DSB, i think it still unsolved problem. One reefer say it would clogging in more than 4 years... but another reefer say i have 10 years old DSB and just still fine. In my opinion, I would not add more sand or replace the DSB...may be i would add more bacteria culture and dosing more carbonto my DSB. S2minute.. this is my opinion.....still could not find the real answer.

if i put screen or i change the lamp high, sps would change the color to brown or pale color. in my opinion we should choose right corals for our lighting especially in mix reef tank. I still looking for perfect lighting until right now... this is my opinion April...

Can you tell us more about the GROMAX and ceramic rings, How long do you leave the rings in? Do you use those for frags? What is the GROMAX? thanks

One more question for you and thanks for answering my previous ones letter2no! How long have you had those gonipora for? I have a green flower pot for about 6 months and everyone says if u get past a year you have done something. you would think in your tank since you dont change the water your gonipora would have a higher chance of living. Your thoughts?

Beautiful tank, Nano. Incredible specimens -- every single one. Fabulous.
...and since no one else has said it yet: love the encrusted Mag Float. Nice touch!

Hi Nano, congratulations on achieving Tank Of The Month status. Your aquarium setup is beautiful and awe inspiring. The pipe in the top of your DIY skimmer/bioball reactor, is that the feed from your display tank? Do you have a tank build thread?!!!
