Planned curing/cycle for AquaOne Mirage 50 (43 litre) Nano Reef
- Place AquaClear 70 on back of tank, with activated carbon and Hydor 50w heater in filtration compartment.
- Set heater to 26° Celsius - Will aid in die off.
- Place AquaC Nano Remora protein skimmer on back of tank.
- Inspect live rock:
- Mix up a higher salinity water with a specific gravity of about 1.035
- Inspect the individual rocks for dead sponge and other dead/undesirable organisms.
- Place rock into high salinity dip bath and shake to dislodge debris. Leave rock in dip for two minutes.
- After unwanted invertebrates have evacuated place rock in tank for curing.
- Repeat for all rocks.
- Add enough Nature's Own Nutri-SeaWater to tank, as well as to the AC 70 filtration chamber, to cover rocks and turn filtration equipment on.
- Turn Hydor Koralia Nano 900 powerhead on and face at rocks.
- Every seven (7) days submerge a simple pump with vinyl tubing attached and blow debris off the rocks, along with doing a 50% water change while siphoning out any organic matter and loose debris that accumulates at the bottom of the aquarium. Use Nature's Own Nutri-SeaWater for the first two weeks, then switch to Red Sea Coral Pro salt mix and RO/DI water.
- Measure and monitor the ammonia and nitrite levels in the aquarium weekly.
- When both ammonia and nitrite levels are zero, perform a 50% water change on the aquarium. After 24 hours, check the pH of the water and adjust as needed to achieve the desired level of 8.1-8.4
- Add 2-2.5cm of Nature's Own Bio-Activ Live Aragonite Reef Substrate to bottom of aquarium. Continue cycle for a further week and then test water again. If levels are safe stock tank.
Refugium:
- Install fixtures for a canister filter - the return of the filter goes into the siphon area of fuge.
- Place two 50w AquaOne ThermoSafe heaters into the fuge (one in the returns chamber and one in the siphon area).
- Set heater to 26° Celsius - Will aid in die off.
- Install an AquaOne Proskim G220 Protein Skimmer to centre chamber, HOB style.
- Inspect live rock:
- Mix up a higher salinity water with a specific gravity of about 1.035
- Inspect the individual rocks for dead sponge and other dead/undesirable organisms.
- Place rock into high salinity dip bath and shake to dislodge debris. Leave rock in dip for two minutes.
- After unwanted invertibrates have evacuated place rock in centre chamber of tank for curing.
- Repeat for all rocks
- Mix up enough salt mix using Red Sea Coral Pro to fill fuge and add API Quick Start to mixture. Turn on equipment.
- Every seven (7) days submerge a simple pump with vinyl tubing attached and blow debris off the rocks, along with doing a 50% water change while siphoning out any organic matter and loose debris that accumulates at the bottom of the aquarium.
- Measure and monitor the ammonia and nitrite levels in the aquarium weekly.
- When both ammonia and nitrite levels are zero, perform a 50% water change on the aquarium. After 24 hours, check the pH of the water and adjust as needed to achieve the desired level of 8.1-8.4
- Add 2-2.5cm of a mixture of Nature's Own Bio-Activ Live Aragonite Australian Gold Live Sand and CaribSea Mineral Mud to bottom of aquarium. Continue cycle for a further week and then test water again. If levels are safe stock fuge with macroalgae.
- Plumb refugium into AquaOne Mirage 50 nano reef.
