Bro, we all learn from each others... lots of masters in hiding.

Good quote... Not all products are good and good products doesnt mean is in good hands sometimes. Even with local diy made brands people can do wonders to their tank. Even good products are not totally invulerable. As for deltec not much mentioned? frog living in a well will never see the ocean, can he? Perhaps if you can post your tank (if you have one? even historical will do) it would prove your seniority on almighty!!!

Do a search on deltec marine. they have plenty of top range equipment and expensive. your protein skimmer i cannot comment much, cause i never heard of it before. skimz? from which country? they famous on protein skimmer? what i do know those top range product for needle wheel is bubble king and deltec. As for the rest, i never really study them. But most of my kakis use local made DIY becket skimmers with pressure rated pumps like iwaki.

In your opinion, how do you find their LPS? i do not know cause i have not been there for a long time. I am not master of sps. just sharing with a few of my kaki with a cup of coffee every week to learn new discoveries that never mentioned from the reef forums but through experience and sometimes trial and errors. We all learn from each other.

Managed to find my old photo. Reflector attached with duct to pull out the hot air. Just for your info.

Deltec also can... but i think return pump is like a heart of the body.. free maintenance and durable is most important.

Your tank is 5ft is quite big but as compared to your house... What protein skimmer you are going to use? where you placing it? if under the cabinet i doubt it will be a powerful one. What corals you intend to keep? If keeping LPS then the tunzes seems too strong i suppose. If keeping SPS, then depends on what species. If keeping a mixed reef (Most difficult IMO), well i am still mastering it, so i cant advise.

The tank in their show room? That is mostly sps, and with your current setup, the flow is definitely not enough. The return pump flow rate seems ok, 7000l/hr? but the brand i not sure as they have weak impeller. Maybe you can try red dragon or aquamedic. Rule of thump, not more than 3/4 bends provided bigger and reputable pumps are used. Anyway, dont worry about mistakes, many owners have designed tanks and optimistic at first but later found out that it is not what they want and they missed out alot of things and the 'it should be' questions. Just make amend if possible when your tank is in operation. Good luck.....

Sold. Thread closed.

nice and beautiful house... Your tank looks small inside your house Congratulation for your new setup. Just a few comments. 1. You need to have exhaust fans (best is ducted to your MH reflector) that will draw heat away from your tank. 2. Your chiller is not ventilated properly, it will give way in no time although the back you have cutted some mesh for ventilation, i doubt that is enough. 3. Your return pump (1 only) seems not enough flow. I suggest you also add wave maker for better circulation. 4. No protein skimmer? i think you have to consider one, without one, you will be growing algae soon. 5. Your rocks from where? Any crabs or pests? Best is to get rid of them before they give you problem later on. 6. Decide what you want and go slow, it would best save your problem later on. 7. Cant think of a maintenance package is better than to do it and maintain your tank yourself. This is what a hobby is all about and you will learn much better. Good luck and do share with us again on your mod.
