Do you have a chiller?
Hi People
Recently setup a Nano FOWLR Tank..have undergone a near 3 weeks cycling..
Added 2 Ocellaris, 1 Skunk Shrimp and snail...
Just to share with you some of the measures i am doing to maintain water chemistry & parameters:-
Daily - Top up distilled water / Check salinity and temperature
3 times a week - 10% water change / Test for Ammonia, Nitrite, Nitrate & PH
Posted some pix to share with all of you here..
1st 3 weeks of cycling:-

I was wondering, can I keep 1 or 2 clownfishes in a dymax iq5?
You can house 1-2 clownfish in this nanotank...just get some liverocks (abt 2kg/5gallons), coral sand and for my case an Eheim 2041 HOB filter will suffice...importantly do regular water changes and test for water chemistry and parameters as our tanks are relatively small...water condition does fluctuates quickly..

Oh okay thanks! I just set up a tank with live rocks from iwana and their live sand. Will the tank cycle? I don't know if the live rock is cured or not
Oh Iwarna, at Pasir Ris right bro?Did you ask the person if the live rock is cured?
Normally you can cycle your tank with cured live rock and meanwhile do the necessary testings..usually beneficial bacteria is already present on cured live rocks and when your ammonia and nitrites are 0 and nitrates is low (abt 5-25ppm), more or less your tank is cycled...
Else, you can try fishless cycling, meaning you can drop a dead shrimp to cycle your tank..
I have recently set up my 2nd FOWLR tank, this time a 2ft one...today marks my 5th day of cycling...
