20 liters Tank (US Fissiden/CRS)

[AveMaria]

btw for ur UGF inlet step up must becareful...

cause the waterflow will go downwards into the soil.. which will result food and debris trap in soil..

and if its a matured tank like lets say 6 months it should have stored up tons of ammonia rich dirt that will taint ur water when u happen to stir up the substrate..

i have personally done it before on a 25Litre tank.. and its disastrous.. and the sensitivity of nano tank to take great water parameter changes..

just to becareful on this part

Thanks for the advice bro. I will take note of that and make sure I don't stir my substrate.

Thanks again, sincerely. =)

This morning I did a 65% water change. And also add in Mosura Mineral Plus after filling the tank. I noticed the US fissiden are growing with new green leaf.

Didb't take any photo as the tank still look the same. hahaha... I will update some photos in a few days time.

Next step, I will add in Old Sea Mud Rock in another 1.5 weeks time, should be on 28th of Apr.

Also Johnlen TEM Chiller is more than half the size of a Resun CL200 and much lighter in weight. It operate quietly, with no vibration when it is running.

Last but not least, since my tank is only near to 20 liters, I thought a small chiller would be enough for it. =)

Hi bro,
thanks so much for the reply. By the way do you know the cost of the Hailea HC-100A chiller? Is it more expensive than Johnlen TEM Chiller ?
Good luck in your set up. Very detail and interesting. Thanks for sharing.

most places selling Hailea 100A @ 300 to 320 range. But i got mine at NA for a dirt cheap price but there are pros and cons of it

Highlander TEM should be cheaper than 100A if i am not wrong.

Since when there is a chiller brand under my nick? hahaha. It's "Johnlen TEM Chiller", not Highlander TEM.
