  1. Danfoss F series Universal compressor Now the compressor used of "0.5hp" reef relief chiller Danfoss FR11G compressor specs. The manufacturer of the reef relief actually spray out the model on the compressor. For whatever purpose I am not sure However you cannot escape the true rating of the compressor and it can be measured easily with a clamp on amp meter with the power factor taken into consideration since it's an AC motor.
  2. It uses flexible hose right? Then it is flexible to put into the sump. I think the flexible hose not so good cos in my car the aircon gas always leak at the flexible hose side. I dare not try Wait the coolant leak and pollute my tank I die
  3. I sold mine off last night. Not really an expensive lesson learn but just that the way the chiller was rated was not FAIR. Errm... do you like to know the model of the compressor used in the RR and Ti chiller My spectrometers chiller uses them you know
  4. Did a detailed monitoring of the chiller performance. With 72W PL running only. Time deg C 23:05 temp 27.4 compressor start 23:25 temp 26.6 compressor stop 00:28 temp: 27.4 compressor start 00:48 temp: 26.6 compressor stop With 600W MH + 72W PL running. 19:02 temp 27.4 compressor start 19:30 temp 26.6 compressor stop With 600W of MH running, it needs 28mins to cool 0.8 degs and from here you get about 1 deg drop/35mins. This is almost 2 deg drop/hr. With the 72W PL running only, it needs 20mins to cool 0.8 degs and that works out to be about 1 deg drop/25mins. This is more than 2 degs drop/hr. Of course other stuffs that runs non-stop are MD55 driving the EV-240 ehiem 1260 oceanfree 9000 (90W 4500 l/h) 36W UV ehiem 1250 circulation pump in CR.
  5. There is some misunderstanding with bro cookiemunster and I was a little heated up this afternoon. I've had a good chat with him earlier this evening and turned out that both of us read reach other's mind wrongly The air is cleared and everything has returned to peace already.
  6. The artica chillers defaults to a HY of +/-1 deg F (about 0.6 deg C). This cannot be set. If your water volume is small then get a small capacity chiller. Don't oversize because you want to big. Bigger chillers consumed a lot more power compared to smaller ones.
  7. Hi guys. All items sold. Including my big pc of LR with blue/green hairy mushroom. Thanks to the guy who bought it, good deal huh? Now my tank DSB empty empty, can hamtam a lot of clam already
  8. bro, Since bo tai chi you come like this and you're so confident about the cooling power of the chiller you're selling. Why don't we arrange for a side-by-side test? 1.25hp Titanium Chiller vs 0.5hp Pacific Coo vs 0.5hp Artica. I am really interested to know if what I get is junk or jewel. Errmm.. I heard it needs 4hrs to cool your tank by 1 or 2 degs with all lights running? Or I remember wrong, the time needed is shorter? Errm.... maybe you like to pop in at my place and look at the actual size of the cooling fins? For whatever reason I can't see how the 0.5hp pacific coo can have a cooling fin that is larger than this? The air coming out from that chiller is also not as strong so how can this fan be small? Don't look at fan wattage but look at the air volume. Heat exchanger don't depend on actual size, it depends on the total surface area avaliable for heat transfer. Bigger doesn't always meant larger surface. No doubt what I paid for my chillre is more than the chiller you're selling what don't you know this is already my 3rd chiller? Do you think I wanna take the risk? Price is no longer an issue to me. The chiller has to suit what I want! Only be having a comparison test then what you said can hold substance. Else we will always take it as because you're selling the chiller and has commerical interest in your comments. This is just my opinion and I hope you're not offended.
  9. If you don't use RO water for water change then everytime you change water, you introduce Silicate and you guess end up what happen? The diatoms will be there forever. Try using Rowaphos.
  10. wow... finally.... When can I expect your first pengiun to be born? Remember to pass me the most cute one! How's the noise of the chiller
  11. Alan, you're most welcome to pay me a visit to hear how noisy this chiller is. Due to the noise, perhaps the 1/3hp aquarium version might be more suitable for most pple.
  12. Anyway it is very easy to judge the performance. Just measure the different in the temp of the water going in and coming out of the chiller. See how much temp is drop and what's the flow rate and you'll have an idea of the actual cooling power. I've actually checked with another friend who is using the pacific coo. It's quiet, it can cool down his 5ft and he got no complains. But end up I still choose this chiller due to various reasons. But then you've to remember I am not selling any chiller so there is no conflict of interest at all. If the product no good and pple make me think it is good and sell it to me, I buy and use already butahan I will go bash until it die Do you think it is time to open up and let people know what's good and what's no good? What works well and what doesn't work well? Instead of all the misconception flying around.
  13. The price is much higher than your pacific coo. However the difference in the performance I am not too sure but since I've no actual experience with it then can't tell. Of course if can put side by side for comparsion then we know right?
  14. I loved it too! But too toxic for my SPS... hiak...... what to do? My LS all very healthy one right
  15. After lunch a bit blurr.... click wrongly but too late already. Hiak... hope the moderator can help to move it
  16. Got a Atman AT-106 4000 l/h pump for sales. Used for 2 months only. Asking for $40. Collection in Haig Road.
  17. Got another green hairy mushroom too forgot to post earlier. but all items reserved already. Collecting this evening.
  18. Collection is in Haig Road. No reservation. Priority given to those that can collect this evening. As previous experience, people reserved then gone MIA
  19. Selling some softies due to not compatible with SPS and clearing space for clams. 1. Green mushroom on small pc of LR with abt 5 mushroom plus one or two flying around in other parts of my tank, will cut from LR and pass to buyer too. - $3 2. assorted orange (bright and light orange) and light blue/green yuma, the light blue/green are small. - $15 3. Goniopora (LPS) - light brown with purple tip - $5 4. Green zoo on LR abt 6" large - $4. 5. Yellow polyps 3 pc - $5 each. Will post photos this evening
  20. Interesting Roidan.... especially the one that has 2 parts, one part showing bubble tip, one part that did not. Can't be lights and current right? Then I am not sure already. Oh maybe got some other corals near it?? eh.... don't take chance to show off your AT hor
  21. But see this brown BTA. It does show the bubble tip and tentacles are short So I think it depends on the anemone.
  22. My Red BTA also become long tentacles. I am not sure why. I read that under strong lights they should develop bubble tips. Isn't 250W MH strong?
  23. I just measure the parameters from the CR. Cutting cost on my test kit so did not measure kH and Ca of the effluent. Before installation of 2nd chamber Date Tank water kH Ca Effluent pH Drip Rate CO2 rate 16/4 8 405 6.6 3 drop/sec 1 bubble/2.5sec CR 2nd chamber installed on 19/4 20/4 8 395 6.66 3 drop/sec 1 bubble/2.5sec I had recalibrated my pH controller yesterday so now the pH reading in my tank is 8.37, before that it was 8.43 so the actual difference of the effluent should be more than 0.06, probably nearer to 0.1 I will need a few more days to tune the CR so I get a steady reading on the kH and Ca. The salifert test kit used could have some error on the part of myself judging the color change so taking measurement for a few more days would give a clearer picture.
