Hello!

I am going to make an nano scrubber and beafore i start the build i hope you can give me your opinion if my equipment is satisfactory for my nano aquarium.

The scrubber is going to be placed on top of the aquarium an i have only enough space for an one sided screen, and the scrubber will have an vertical screen.

Aquarium: 63 liter nano, maybe total of 50 liters water.

Scrubber equipment:'

Screen size: 15x10cm one sided and is made of material that will not let water trough the screen, all the water from pump will flow on top of the screen.

Pump capasity: 450 liter/h

Light: 20W CFL bulb

I know the screen, pump and light bulb is a little bit inadequate in relation to the recipe on the FAQ on this forum, but i see the comment "unless it's for a nano" in the FAQ about the needed lightning size/effect. And i see that also the SM 25 have only 75 gallon of flow on one side so i hope that the pump and the light bulb that i have is big enough for my nano scrubber, all the equipment that i thought i would use for my nano scrubber i already had in my house.

I am building my scrubber in a small box and i am also conserned about my 20W light bulb will produce too mutch heat, is it possible to use even a smaller bulb for a nano scrubber?
