sounds like a nice setup.
but i wudnt go with the buket filters, they would eventually get stuffed up with detritus and being to leach nitrates into yur tank an thet cud lead to probs.

a tank setup with enough live rock a sump and a proper refugium would provide enough bio filtration and if u want a bit more jus add some of those plastic pot scrubbers in yur sump that you can see if they get too dirty.
a good protein skimmer helps alot.

well the bucket filters doh really get much into them at all... i already have them on the cichlid tank...

the powerheads that feed the bucket filters have prefilters so everything basically stays in the prefilters...

For all the tuners with them nemo clown fish or pecular clowns or whatever yuh call them.

I have 2 of them but they kinda picky with eating.
What allyuh does feed them?

ziggy_dappa · Postby **ziggy_dappa** » February 4th, 2009, 2:42 pm

when i first got mine they wuddnt eat for a few days and i hatched sum baby brineshrimp an they ate allll after that they started eatin the freeze dried brine shrimp and from there on they wud eat any food u put in there.

u just have to get them accustom with being fed in yur tank, but when hungry enuff they WILL eat..
