  Fully Mature Corner Unit Marine Set-up







Description: I have a corner unit Fully mature Marine set-up Approx 200/250 litres which I am regrettably looking to sell.

I have and still am using the Berlin Method of Filtration.

The Berlin method is based on the natural system aquarium developed by Lee Chin Eng in 1961. The largest difference in the systems is the incorporation of protien skimmers in the Berlin Method. The basic premise is that live rock is an acceptable media for biological filtration. We all know that nitrifying bacteria coat every surface of our aquariums, they are just found in the largest numbers in our filters. That stands to reason because they have access to high water flow (more food) and oxygenated water. The trickle filters used today are very efficient at processing nitroenousn waste, for our purposes a little to efficient. When biological waste is processed in a trickle filter, there is no place in the filter with low oxygen(onoxic) area for de-nitrification, processing nitrates to nitrogen gas. In Berlin method aquarium the live rock is the nitrifying filter and there are many nooks and crannies in live rockthat gets very little water flow and therefore very little oxygen. The end result is the ammonia is processed to nitrite and the bacteria are right there to process the nitrite to nitrate and then the anoxic areas, where de-nitrification takes place, are right there to process the nitrate to nitrogen gas which subsequently leaves the tank.Just like in the Ocean.

It will include all Fish, Corals, Live rock,and everything you will need. (see list below) .

It is with regret I am selling my set up but my Health is stopping me from keeping it and am hoping it will go to a good home.

This obviously has cost me well over £4000 to set up and therefore I am looking for £660 for the whole set up or the Very nearest offer.
