Hi, I have a 3 foot tank for sale. No leaks or cracks. It comes with a light, filter and small heater. Only $40. 91815689 Clarke Quay

The glass is 6mm thick and I had a look online and it seems that for the size of the tank we have, this should be ok. The fish seem to be doing well and we have been testing the water levels daily and everything is spot on where it should be so I think we're doing ok. We're not going to worry putting sand in for the next few weeks or moving it onto a stand to allow everything time to settle properly as we don't want to disrupt the fish again. The pet shop advised that for the size of the tank we have does not require a sump filter so we are using an Eheim Professional 3 600 which they said is quite a good model. We have a thermometer and have been checking the temp daily but I wanted to check what it should be - currently it varies from about 28 degrees to 31 degrees. We are only planning on keeping fish in the tank at this stage as coral seems like it could be a lot of work and we have already jumped in the deep end (so to speak)! I've read that clownfish sometimes like a companion - is this the case? When the tank is settled, should we think about getting our clown fish a friend?

Thanks everyone, this has been super helpful! My boyfriend went to a pet store at Serengoon today which was recommended by the guys at the Golden Octopus and they have set him up with a canister filter, skimmer and all sorts of bits and pieces. Now we're just on the hunt for a stand. Assuming we manage to keep the fish alive, when can we start adding a few more in?

Hi there, My boyfriend and I have just purchased a tank but it doesn't come with a stand so we're urgently seeking a stand/table that would be sturdy enough to hold a 91cm x 45cm x 45cm tank. Not fussed if cabinet or metal. Thanks!

Hi there, My boyfriend and I purchased a reef tank second hand last night which unexpectedly came with a few fish (clown fish plus some others), some little crabs and lots and lots of live rocks. As we weren't expecting it to come with the fish and rocks, we did not have all the equipment required or the expertise to be able to set up the tank properly (cycling etc). In the last 24 hours we have read as much as we can about the basic principles of setting up the tank (and we are committed to learning more) but as we are starting back-to-front with the fish already in the tank, I was wondering if anyone could please tell us what to do as we really want to keep the fish alive and we haven't had the opportunity to follow the proper steps in order. Last night we filled the tank with tap water, dechlorinated it and then added tank salt mix as per the last owner's instructions. We put the live rocks in, floated the fish for about 2 hours and then let them out into the water. The clown fish looks a little distressed in that it is swimming back and forth at the front of the tank but the other fish seem ok. At the moment, the tank only has a pump which is circulating the water and a light but we need to sort out a filter system and protein skimmer ASAP. Can someone please tell us what we need to buy in terms of a filter and protein skimmer as it is quite confusing. The tank is 3ft long, 1.5ft deep and 2ft high and glass. It's currently sitting on styrofoam on the floor and we need to purchase a stand for it this weekend. The old owner told us we needed a canister filter but I keep reading about sump filters and am not sure what to do. Also other than the filter and skimmer is there anything else we need? Is there a service in Singapore whereby someone can come and look at the tank and recommend a set up? Thanks in advance - any help would be greatly appreciated!
