sorry

Sorry I can not help you with the size of the baffles.

Do you know specifically what koralias you have ?

What type of lighting are you planning ?

The total volume is a good size and I like the 40 gal breeder for the sump, you will have tons of room.

 

my PH are two 1400 and a 750 they are going to be in the corners and the 750 in the center pointing at front glass

my lighting is the tek light 36inch 6 bulb i will mod with moon lights and add LED for shimmer.

i have one two fish reactor i think it is called the phosban 150 and i am geting another for carbon and GFO

 

Sounds like you have a good handle on it, is the LFS assisting you ?


There are some good build threads on this forum, you just have to skim through them and see what you can garner that applies to your set up.

What are you going to use skimmer wise ?

Are you planning on growing macro algaes in the sump?

 

yes and no i have 3 lfs and also Petco and wallmart but they do not help much but yes thay are i do my research and the ask them for there advise

i will be using a ASM g-3

and part of my sump will be a fuge

ps anyone els know much on the stands i have heard to use hard wood but what dose that mean??

 

Make your baffles no higher than the maximum water depth that the skimmer works at.

Looks like you have a well thought out plan.

Looking forward to the continued growth on this tank.

 

thanks for the help

me and my dad were talking and thinking about doing more of a build in look.

i will take pics to see what you think but we would build the wall out so it is not on a stand and then texture the wall like the rest of the house??

 

Those are real great looks.

 

thanks!!!

but i have a questions to ask you

do you think it would look bad if the stand or wall counter what ever you call it was bigger than the tank
