  1. Time flies when you are thinking of doing water change but it seems eternity while waiting for nitrogen cycle to complete.

  2. Finally setup my maxspect and decided to take a picture of current state going into 5th day of cycling. Decided to go with minimalist scaping with all the rest of the LR going into my sump.
  3. Going into 4th day of cycling with daily dosage of bacteria with market prawn inside tank. Got a really big shock today when i woken up in the morning, my return pump malfunction Straight away i contacted Ken whom i purchased the pump from and without any hesitant he offer me a temporary replacement pump while waiting for his shipment to come for my 1 to 1 exchange. It's all these services that make us consumer feel safe in terms of making purchases. 5 star excellent service from him
  4. If you are quite sure its your skimmer, you may wish to try placing the skimmer outlet further away from your return pump.
  5. Noted with thanks bro. Sent from my PadFone 2 using Tapatalk 2
  6. Thanks for the advice bro, i'm kinda skeptical about purchasing NSW from lfs as i have very bad experience from it. My yellow and convict tang died after i do water change using NSW from lfs so i told myself i'm not gonna let this happen again. Noted with thanks. Shall look into the options in the near future but so far guess still manageable for me as i have tried turning it on and off a couple of time today. Maybe when it gets too stiff, i will have to visit gym more often already
  7. Why is that bro? Can you further elaborate to enlighten me?
  8. No it's just for the mean time while i run tap water confirm won't overflow. Once i fill in with salt mix will adjust the water level accordingly. Right now just to "clean" off dirty stuff from the tank.
  9. Bro very neat because still many things not inside yet haha just add in tap water to run for a day before draining it out. Still got 2 reactor not inside the sump, will only add in after i complete my tank cycling. Not intending to buy NSW because lazy to buffer up the missing parameter so using salt mix will be the best although making water is a headache.
  10. Finally the long awaited time came, i have received my tank Currently tank running on just tap water to clear off any dirt and to check for leakage for one day before i change it to RODI with salt mix. While filling it up with water using bucket due to me totally forgotten about buying hoses, its really a tiring because i top up a total of 13 pail of water super shag. Also looking at it, i guess it will take me at least 2 days to prepare RODI water
  11. Yeah i totally agree with you. But in terms of scaping wise i think is more of a artistic expression and personality. Nevertheless there's no right or wrong in terms of this, most importantly is we like it.
  12. Yeah that's what i thought also, the 3D view seems a little different. But guess should be fine, even if it's same as the 3D view piping wise should be quite easy to search if we are diligent enough. Thanks for your suggestion and kind attention bro.
  13. Nice! Can see that you have really planned this out carefully with all the drawings you have done on a "expensive" piece of paper Did you drill holes on the rock for insertion of frag plug in future?
  14. All thanks to your recommendation, i got the tank maker to change as per your suggestion to minimise headloss.
  15. High time to invest on a bicycle for LFS visit. Car market is going to crash.
