nice layout! btw, does anyone got the manual for CL-450 chiller and known problems? gonna have a look at a 2nd hand model this weekend. using it to chill about 250 liters of water from 29c to 25/26c. the previous owner used for 2years liao + saltwater system.

pls advise.

i tried to search online but little info given.

got a random question,
how to setup a big planted tank (6ft++), hardscape is driftwood, so i guess its natural amazon style.
filter type?
light of course use multiple metal halide.
suitable moss on DW?
plants on DW?
background plants?
do i need to use foreground plants? or do i amano's way? leave the front barren with sand?
err how about algae problems?

any sifus with big tanks experience plz share  biggrin.gif

huhuuu.. 6 feet.. imagine how many canister u need

u can use sump, but then some scare co2 lost due to open air

example for 6ft scape
