Hi! I have been lurking around while educating myself on an upcoming tank conversion. I have been freshwater aquascaping for three years in a rimless 30 G Waterbox with an Oase Biomaster 250 Thermo canister filter and programable RGB LED lights. My QT is a 10G rimless Landen with an Oase HOB and cheaper RGBW LED.
I plan to run the same lights and filters with fresh matrix media, 0.8 rox carbon and gfo. I also plan to add chaeto to a breeder box by the lilypipe outflow and seed with galaxy pods. I will make an aquascape with marco rock and have a sand bottom, probably “special grade”. I plan to precycle matrix and rocks for one month in 5G buckets.
I have seen MikeyMikeMike’s Youtube channel using the same system on a larger set up, so I think this is very possible. He has SPS dominant. I plan to make an ULM tank, leather, softie and LPS dominant with nonaggressive corals, inverts and fish.
Has anyone else tried a ULM with a canister filter and planted tank lights? I would like to learn from your successes and flops.
