Starting 2-tier Shrimp Tank
Hi,
Finally managed to settle down and setup another CRS setup. Tank: 2 tier, 4X2X1.5(H) with top tank overflow to lower tank, side outlet port to 2ft sump tank. Total volume = 380 litres. I was kind of losing touch fro a while therefore have a couple of questions here need all "Shifu" to help to recommend. - Pump: Will an Ehiem universal 1262 be sufficient or do I need 1264? - Soil: Use Benabachi, Mosura soil or others to maintain ph 6.3-6.5? - Chiller: Budget $1K any brand/size to recommend? Thanks in advance for all advise given, big or small will be very much appreciated. Happy Shrimp Keeping to all. |

Hailea Chiller 1/4HP tank volume from 100-800L, flowrate needed for it is 1000-2500LPH.
Hailea Chiller 1/2HP tank volume from 200-1200L, flowrate needed for it is 1200-3000LPH. Wat I think is best to get 1/2HP chiller, ehiem 1260 should be enough as its 2400LPH. As for soil is up to individual preferences. |
