6 feet comm tank:-
After water changed, added salts and more plants... the test results does not seem to have much different.
PH should be around 7.6 (could be due to water changed)
Ammonia is still zero
Nitrite should be zero
Nitrate seems to be still around 40-80ppm...
Is there no way to bring now the nitrate to zero ?

Showcase of 0.7W brightlight led
Ikea whitelight LED - each bar is 0.7W
The package comes with 4 bars of the LED and one adapter.
I use one bar each for the Cichlids tank and ray tank.
I kept the other 2 bars as spare.

Internal filter for sump
Adding an internal filter pump to the last compartment of the sump tank.
I would say the effect is quite good.
It cleans the surface oil and fine polish the water further.

Bottom tank starts operation
Filled up IOUS and OHF with mechanical and biomedia.
Add water and some hardy livestock.
The water output from the OHF is quite loud so i DIY using washing machine filter net and tie to the OHF output. Much much better after that.
