Yeah, the Berlin method generally consists of using only a protein skimmer and natural biological filtration to stabilize your water.
And usually when you see a pretty stocked tank like that, there's some behind the scenes workings. Maybe a large sump/fuge? You never really know.
I just got finished reading that article from LiveAquaria, and I don't know if I trust it all that well. How do you know the tank is cycled in 4 weeks? And the PC lights don't seem all that strong for corals (very soft ones at most). Other than that, it seems like a good time line for adding things. Just make sure you're watching your water parameters and not just waiting 4 weeks to add stuff. |
