Why not use a 6x39w T5? I am considering this type of lighting too. Use the moonlight for dusk-dawn timing. Lesser wattage compared to a 250w mh but with the flexibility of mix matching the lightbulb.

aargh, too late........

Ni macam kenal ni tapi di mana yah...............?

hahaha.....but I don't think my home can support 3 tank with 3 chiller, currently I have 2 tanks with 2 chiller. Confirm trip liao.

Bawak 3 prata tapi yang datang 1 section, macam mana tu?

Ryanlio, there is another backup you need. This require you to own a very long extension wire that will reach your neighbour home just in case only your home electrical supply is cutoff for extended period of time. Actually, you need a few of this extension wire and a good neighbour.

nampak tak, nampak tak, dah sasau ni.........

1st thing that you can do is to separate the electrical load of the electric consumption of your tank. Use 2 separate power point for your tank and try to equalise the consumption used for the tank between the 2 power outlet. Never placed all the equipment on a single power outlet. Try to use a lower wattage equipment. They would add lesser heat to your tank water. If possible, use pumps that can be placed outsump. Lesser wattage might lead to lesser heat buildup and lesser time for the chiller to switch on to cool down the water and longer lifespan for the chiller. Point the exhaust of the chiller out into open space instead of against the wall. The dispersed warm air will be moved away from the chiller. If you point the exhaust air against the wall, it might be sucked in again by the chiller as it has not enough space to dissipate away. It is worst if you placed the chiller in the cabinet as the chiller would have to work more to cool down the water. Still on chiller. Get a bigger model, a size up from the recommended model. It will have enough 'grunt' to still operate as it's limit should be higher than the previous model. But if the limit of the said chiller has been reached, then you're in trouble. Same scenario for skimmer, get a model bigger than the recommended one. You never know when you need to travel for 2 weeks at a stretch. Reason being the bigger the skimmer, the bigger the skimmer cup and the more skimmate it could store. That, or you could get a waste collector connected to the skimmer cup to extend the amount collected. For longer period of travel, a tank sitter should be feasible. Find one that lives near you as it won't be a chore for him/her to keep a lookout of your tank. An insump skimmer is a good bet. You'll never need to deal with the small driplet of saltwater with an outsump skimmer. There's no worries of leak either with an insump skimmer. The only con I see is the skimmate might fall back into the sump if you are careless or a klutz( accident prone ). A cutoff switch gadget for your lights in case the chiller fail. I think this is it. There might be more contribution from other fellow reefer especially from the senior reefer.

Can't wait to see how the coral will look like when placed on a dark coloured substrate.

3 lah, 1 sulphur bead, 1 calcium media dan lagi 1 carbon media. Sulphur bead tak payah pakai banyak, minimum 1 inci tebal aje.

Eh, kalau korang nak buat diy denitrator, gua pun nak join sekali. Sapa2 yang interested? Barang yang nak dicari- 1) 3 in 1 inline water filter 2) Hose converter ( untuk sambung pump ke hose kecik ) 3) Sulphur bead 4) Carbon 5) Calcium media 6) Hose kecik ( ro/di punya hose ) Mana nak dapat barang nbr 1 yang murah?

2 hari off.

Besok aku agak lepas balik dari jalan2 aku rescape sikit2 nak cari ricordia yang hilang ni. Tinggal 1 aje, multicolor.

$120.....

$74

Terima kasih banyak2. Tapi sekarang yang multicolor 1 dah hilang, jatuh agaknya. Yang masalah besar ni macam mana nak hilangkan bau busuk coral dah mati dari jari ni. Dah pakai sabun pun tak hilang baunya.

Sikit punya berita buruk. 6 ric yang aku beli tinggal tiga. 3 dah mati kena timpa batu, tinggal 2 multicolor dengan 1 hijau. Darah naik..........

Baru jumpa ni thread, nampak macam senang aje. Berapa agaknya harga ni 3 stage water filter unit? Aku macam nak try aje kalau murah. http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthre...hreadid=1255658 Amacam, mahu cuba?

Fwoah, power! Bila aku punya nak jadi macam tu?

If you have nothing to contribute or to help assist the victim to find a way out, I do not see why you need to align with someone who has been known already to perform certain activity to benefit himself. This is not the 1st case in SRC so if you do not know the history of who has been cheated and who has run away with some of the reefer monies, please do not in anyway try to mediate the situation as you are still young and do not know what is happening. Cheater, trickster and whatever else you may call are really not tolerated in this forum. The management of this forum could not prevent this situation from cropping up as it is always occur between 1 reefer to another. But the community here has started to police itself by making the so call individual to be known in the forum. Other reefer will avoid this individual once it has been made known. So here in lies the situation, are you with this 'individual' ? There are reefer reading this thread, do you know that?

ZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz.....................

Boleh........

Aik, macam sama aje.....Aku nak tanya sikit, kalau ric 2 mulut kira 2 ric ke 1 ric?

Gua lah yang tangkap 6 ric. Ingat nak tangkap potteri ngan flame tapi besar lah ni 2 ikan jadi gua tangkap 2 hijau, 2 biru/purple dengan 2 yang multicolor. Tapi kecik lah, tak macam kat orang lain punya. Suruh kawan keje aku pilih, gua pegi tengok ikan.
