Filtration Argument (again)
#1
Okay, I have just set up my new 200L tank, fresh RO water, live aragonite sand bed (2 maybe 3 inches). At the moment I have a Eheim professional 2235 running on it.
I have about 30kg live rock in my (badly leaking) nano which I am going to move over when I have sorted the water out.
My stocking level at the moment is 2 clowns, blue Linkia star, CBS and a few snails so i know there is plenty of room left - but should I keep the canister filter going, not decided on corals yet - im thinking they are a bit too much hassle.
I have a good protein skimmer on the tank and great circulation,
The filter will pump out nitrates that would hopefully get used up by my chaeto i guess? any other reasons as to why I shouldnt have it?
Thoughts please :)
