Thinking about getting a derasa. My LFS just got some really nice ones in. Tank is 10 months old. Params are as follows and very stable:
Sg 1.025
Ph 8.1 to 8.3 daily
Calc 430 ppm
Duh 9
Mag 1400 ppm
No3 0 ppm
Po4 0.08 ppm
My lighting is a nova extreme pro 6 x 54w T5 with ATI bulbs (4 blue+, 1 aqua blue spec, 1 purple+). Photo period is 8hrs (8hrs with 3 blue+, 7hrs with all bulbs). Lights are 4in off the water and 22in off the sand.
Livestock is a Marron Clown, 2 Chromis, Hoevens Wrasse, Lyretail Anthias, Lawnmower Blenny, CB Shrimp, mixed snails and hermits.
I'm fairly confident that I can support one but would love to hear from people that are keeping happy clams under T5 lighting etc.
