  1. Day 18 What a busy day today! Hooked up my DI system and did a 50% water change. My nitrates and Phosphates were sky high which also means the tank is cycled, must have been the cubes of frozen food i've been 'feeding' the tank during the cycling period. Tank parameters after 50% WC today: kH: 8.3 Calcium: 400ppm Magnesium: 1200ppm Potassium: 370ppm Nitrate: 50ppm Phosphate: 0.5ppm Now time to show some new equipments! I decided to get the Noopsyche K7 Pro II LED simply because it fits my budget, is very similar (or identical) spectrum wise to the Hydra 26 and has a single kessil-like lens per led puck. Turns out they are really well-built and the colors blending are awesome! The single dome lens perfectly blends each individual colors and there is 0 rainbow effect even at the top of my rock scape. Per led puck, there's 3 Cool white, 3 Royal blues, 3 Blues, 1 red, 1 green and 2 violets (400nm and 410nm). It would've been perfect if 1 of the cool whites were swapped with a warm white led. Another plus point is that all but the violets are Osram LEDs. With the provided mounting arm, i must say it complements the Red sea Reefer 170 really well. Well, the controller is not the most user friendly and the technology felt like a decade old. So i got the Jebao SLW-20M (wifi version) and as compared to the MP10, its size is really compact! To be fair, i should've included the rubber magnet used to angle the jebao wavemaker in this comparison photo. I personally preferred the Jebao over the Mp10 here because it has a much wider flow and i am able to angle the WM to point at an angled direction. The only bad point over the MP10 would be the cord visible in the tank. The jebao app is surprisingly easy to connect and use. Next up is my skimmer! I went for this interesting skimmer from BM because of the limited space i have in the sump, since i am adding a UAS, UV and possibly a reactor for phosphate removal media. The BM Z7 is well built and really easy to assemble, the design is well thought out with a drain outlet from the skimmer 'cup'. now this is exactly why i chose this model! It fits perfectly in the cut out section right infront of the filter cup area. I also found this container (at daiso) that fits the only space left in my sump and its perfect for 2 parts and a skimmate collection cup! I will end this update with a FTS with the Noopsyche led at 100% on all 5 channels. It is blindingly bright and i initially thought i might need 2 sets because of my scape, but the spread so far is pretty good. The shimmer is amazing too!

  6. Day 9 Today i'm gonna hook up my return pump to my chiller and a T-joint that will feed a UV and a small reactor for rowaphos. So the back of the red sea reefer cabinet's cut out is way too small than it should be! I connected my return to the chiller and chiller back to the return line of the tank but due to the design of the cabinet, i had to use 2 L joint if not the hose will not be able to connec to the return line. The T-joint has a valve and its currently shut off, will be connecting this to a UV once i get my hands on 1. All done! Decided to go for the Teco TK500, a little overpowered but i guess i can still use it if i upgrade next time. Love the design as the airflow out the top means that i can direct the air where i want and also push the chiller all the way to the wall. The in/outlet of the chiller is hidden behind too so i am able to hide all the pipings.
  7. Hi Reefers, i am decomming my 422 tank set. The tank is still running freshwater set up and i will decom and clean it by next week. The tank is a N30 4x2x2ft tank with quality wooden cabinet and laminated with black carbon-fibre textured lamination. Great condition on both the tank (just some scraches) and cabinet as it was very well maintained. It also comes with soft-close hinges which were replaced few months ago. Fully braced with hood, also comes with 4 N30 glass cover. A picture of the sump when i used to run marine in this tank. enough space for media, Skimmer and refugium and even space for CRs or other reactors. The overflow system is a Herbie style overflow which means once its dailed in its absolutely silent. So what's included? 1) N30 422 tank set with cabinet, hood and sump 2) 4 peices of N30 glass tank cover 3) Jebao DC-12000 return pump. 12000L/Hr pump but it's usually set to only 3-40% power. 4) Enough quality media like Bio-rods, seachem Matrix and Mr Aqua ceramic rings to fill up the media section. 5) 3-way Timer plug Letting go this whole set for only $450. This tank was custom made from N30 5yrs+ ago for $1.9k+ (Receipt will be provided). Please only hire professional mover, viewing without obligation is welcomed once Phase 2 kicks in (19th june). Collection would be 1 week from now at woodlands. Please whatsapp me at 9106-3934 Thanks for viewing.
