i'm so glad we're not the only ones with this weird idea. we stay in a landed, the intended tank is to be in our living room at first level. not sure how to check the maximum load though.. as long as the tiles dont crack i suppose? the idea is to share the same sump, chiller and equipment. we are running on 2 different chillers currently and the interior is always humid and the bills are super high already. we plan to run on compressor chiller and LED lighting to at least maintain the PUB bill. if can lower is a bonus. there will be alot of planning. we want to do it right. we're also on the look out for good condition 2nd hand. that will save alot of cost. will definitely check out vt_snowman's thread. thanks for the tip! please do post pics of done up tank for reference here!

Up for my auction.

not sure if this is the correct folder to post. apologise first if this ain't. I am using hubby's account to enquire on the new tank we have been thinking about. after reefing for a year, we are toying with the idea of upgrading. our current tank is a 4ft X 2.5ft X 2.5ft. was previously filled with many corals and reef safe fishes till hubby got bored and decided to convert angel fishes and butterfly. while my interest are mainly corals, i started my own tank and bought a red sea max. instead of having 2 separate tanks, we would like to join both tanks into 1 and have the best of both worlds.. he has his angels and reef-unsafe fishes while I can still buy corals I fancy. we are now thinking of doing a new tank of 8ft (length) X 2.5ft (width) x 2ft (height) with 1 end (about 2ft) conjoined to accomodate reefsafe fishes and corals while the balance (6ft) will be for FOWLR. maybe hubby is planning on keeping sps.. cant confirm that. for equipment and other stuff to support this system, we can discuss later. structurally will be nice? has anyone done a similar tank? or any suggestion we should take note of? the diagram is a rough drawing of how the tank should look like. your criticism welcome. Thanks!

No lar. The rhomboid is the male one. I bought him a gf (your one) and he died on me. Your female is adjusting nicely and eating everything now... Pellets and all.. My archilles tang now a little cloudy eye. U guys sure this is not contagious???

upz for my auction.. forgot to add... pic taken using iphone camera.

Thank everyone for your input. My rhomboid up the lorry. Leaving behind my broken heart & lemonlemon female rhomboid. There wasn't even enough time for me to get the medications I needed.

what medication should i get? and where can i get this? i have other fishes in the tank.. if i add this medication, will the other fishes be affected?

just noticed that my golden rhomboid which i recently bought about a week ago has a swollen left eye. he has been hiding under the rock. is this the 'popeye' disease? i have other fishes in the tank. is this contagious? is there any remedy for this? what causes this sickness?

ya.. thats sounds logical.

wats DSB? understand it is personal preference. just want to know the pros and cons of each choice. cos the cons may not be applicable for me but may be necessary for another.. for eg if i dont keep wrasse (only angel tank) then maybe not having sand will not be as important? so I thought the more experienced reefers can list out all the pros and cons so each can make the best of our decisions.

having a sandbed definitely looks better. but i feel that the sand traps a lot of stuff and difficult to maintain?

I am thinking of converting my tank to FOWLR. i see many reefers prefer not to have sand bed in their tanks while others opt to have. what are the pros and cons of having a sandbed? thankx for your input!
