After 3 years with a smaller reef aquarium, JC changed for a Juwel aquarium (Length: 1.5 m , height: 62 cm , (width: : 60 cm in the middle and 40 cm on sides). Most live rocks of old aquarium have been used again in the new one. All additional parts of decor are aquaroche elements (setting up in 2 stages). |

At the beginning, he set up, on the left side, 1 pillar (code 0848) with eco reef plates. Then, after 2 weeks, he wished to hide the block on the right and improve the setting up of live rocks in the middle: On the right, a reef system column (code 0954) hides the block and tube at the rear. On the top, near the front glass, a Tunze nano stream rock hides the pump. In the middle, the use of a 'base-decor' set helps to raise all the live rocks, which keeps a good water circulation, ways for fish... Pictures have been taken one month after introduction of aquaroche elements. |

 "Click for enlargement...") Decor for aquarium - 180 cm |
This project was made for a reef aquarium, with specific requests: hide accessories in a corner and use mainly ceramic rocks. Particularity is that width is very narrow: 40 cm, which means: put the decor against the back side with a few foregrounds to give a depth effect. |
|
Background decor in height 56 cm (code 1956) hides the corner and accessories. Plateaux, each put on 3 stable ceramic rocks, are bases for setting up the decor, keep a good water circulation and avoid sedimentation. Then ceramic rocks are piled up on the plateaux, together with some eco reef plates. Some eco reef plates are installed on the rock (1956) at different levels. Ratio rocks/ water volume for this aquarium is around 12 % (in wet rocks) - see weight table and page: Which quantity? |
