  1. so can u share more info when the chiller cut in and cut out at which range of the temp my currently running at cut in at 29 degree and cut out at 28 degree
  2. i've use on my 3ft reef tank before it does serve me good no3 and po4 almost 0ppm, with less algea problem on the main tank. however previously i setup in the exposure of the whole sump, so the sump tank as long got lighting will have algea bloom and cleaning problem So i advise u to built it to a bpx up type with min light exposure like this it'll only glow within the screen in the box info of my previous reef tank mainly zoas but mushie doesn't really doing well in it as nutrient was relativly low as the artical said but not advise to have algea scrubber in an SPS tank?? how does it really affect to it maybe some others bro can advise more on it??

  4. OH ya can i bring my wife and my baby girl along to join in the fun HUH?? Bro Larry
  5. u wan with egg or without cost bout 70cent to 1.50 LOL
  6. i'm using warm white which is more to yellowish/orange as u said by the way i'm using color temp 3000k and start to grow green after the first wash liao yes it the wavebox
  7. all reserve waiting for collection
  8. Hi all i've a few fishes to give away as i just shifted my tank Pls take as a whole collection on this weekends at woodlands 1 yellow tail blue damsel 1 tomato clown fish with extra short bar at one side, and dark patches body 2 black damsel with yellow tip tail 1 royal drotty back
  9. sorry to hear that of what happen, but for equipment to fail is still possible like others electronic parts.
  10. as new-new said try not to use old DSB unless just the top layer, seen u going to dish out the sand use the current water in the tank to wash the sand first before transfering to the new tank
  11. oh bro marco as stated int model or ext model it doesn't matter as some skimmer need a higher level of water, so adjust it to the level of the water to the neck and try it
  12. bro don't really get what u mean as stated in the photo regardless whether it ext or int model just adjust it to the neck level of the skimmer cup
  13. Ok there's a no said to use pump as wave maker but u do need to consider that pump have a direct flow in shaight angle unless u can deflect the flow to different direction or turbulance flow there's alot of size of wavemaker on the market eg. vortec mp10 or koraila nano is so far the smallest and controllable you can try Reef depot, iwarna and Aquamarin ask for assitance and tell them wat u wan they'll sure glad to help u further
  14. ok teco for the older model RA not that bad as i've use it before but it dispess alot of heat with the same spec of other chiller artica is too ex for me but if u wan a good brand that'll be the one then as for me for buying an 1/4 or 1/3 hp i'll rather buy an 1hp hailea with less than half of the price all depend on ownself
  15. here are the photo but u can adjust to the bottom also can which u'll have a darker skimmate
  16. ya stated 1/4hp will do just fine but resun always have a slower cooling time which also comsump high power 650w for a 1/4hp with such power or lower i can get a 1/2hp chiller like hailea 500a just 528w and therefor even for artica or so it took only 25-35min to cool down from 28-27 and rest for around 3-4hrs with rio32 - ehiem 800L - aquabee2000L - rio10 (take note it switched on/off by ext thermostate) As for bro FACLAN u can use it for 3ft tank no problem just that as stated it consump high power for that hp rate it took me to upgrade as the loud noise when kicking in and out, i also use hc 500a for my 3ft it serve me well with just bout 20-30 min working each time
  17. it not a trick it just that after use alot of type of skimmer so far it the best setting i can get Deltec Reef oct Weipro Marine sources bubble magus skimz it can produce dark green skimmate with the neck still look clean with a thin layer of brown slime, so u can just siphon out the skimmate and just clean wipe with a sponge (without tuning off the pump) And with this setting i find it kick in very fast once restart of the skimmer ( may vary depend on ur water parameter and pump)
  18. Hi SM here are the update of my algea scrubber being build as per ur drawing the pic are the growth at 14days cause of the tank is in the cyclying process so it took 14 days to see brown algea to grow i've done the first cleaning so now have to wait for another week to see the result as for info i'm using two unit and both water flow are link together with a pump and gravity feed at one end each
  19. bro how much lr u have there and size
  20. ok u can do for fine tuning on RO skimmer is that block the air intake side completely, thereafter adjust the knob for the water level to reach 1/4 of the neck bottom and make sure it stay at the constant level. From there u can open the air intake fully this's wat my friends do and also wat i do for fine tuning and good level for most skimmer
