Heh.. Yeah.. I actually thought of changing to that.. Do you know how big is it? Thought of compensating for the weak flow with good wave makers. On e side note.. I just accquired a second hand JBJ ATO last night. Got to source for a pump that would be strong enough to go up 90cm + 60cm.. And a reservoir that can hold about 4-6 liters of water.. Wanna put the ATO system inside the cabinet, but I don't know if the sensor cables are long enough..

Lol! I got a shock when I entered my room and saw the tank. I thought what's up with the trails then I spotted the small snail on my fro t glass. Don't know if it's a really small snail, but it looks like it has a really soft, pyramid like shell. Hmm.. Cause my table isn't strong enough to hold the tank. And I wanted something to hold my additives and miscellaneous stuff. And eventually to hold a reservoir for my ATO. In my opinion, the compact 1000 doesn't give me enough power at the outlet. But sufficient la.. Just add wave makers lor.. Haha.. I'm quite satisfied with my skimmer so far though

Thanks! I hope the corals will sit in right! Haha.. I know right.. I was also considering the same dimensions as you at first but i was quite bothered by the little space I'd have in front after the 6" IOS, so I decided to go ahead with a 2FT cube. Haha.. But I also have one problem now, cause my cabinet is 90cm tall, so when I need to do stuff at the sand bed or just slightly further down the tank, my entire arm has to go in..

Sorry for the blur glass! lots of pods stuck to the tank walls now.. and there's hitchhiked snail on the front glass now so there's a little trail all over! The tank's 8 days into cycling now! Oops.. made a mistake on the first post.. It was 6 days into cycling then.. Tank started on 16 June! Hmm.. Currently my chiller's thermostat reads 26 Degrees but a digital thermometer I placed on the tank reads 25 Degrees.. Which one shall I follow? Did my second round of tests since the tank started today.. So here's the readings! Salinity - 1.026 NO3 - 4 NO2 - 0.1 pH - 8.08 KH - 2.4 PO4 - 0.16

Thank you! Here's a picture of the full tank with cabinet! Oops.. Got some reflection in there.. haha.. of course the airplane isn't in the tank! And here's a picture of the tank close up! And a closer look to the rockscape from the side!

I used to have a 3FT set up a couple of years back while I was still studying. But I decided to decom the tank back then cause I couldn't commit financially and physically. Now that I can commit better, I decided to return to the reefing scene! My current set up is a 2FT cube, with 6" IOS. Here's a picture my humble tank, taken on 20th June 2012, 4 days into cycling: Here are my equipments list: 1. Return Pump - Eheim Compact 1000 2. Skimmer - Bubble Magnus NAC 3.5 3. Chiller - Artica 1/15HP Chiller Pump - Eheim Compact 1000 4. Lights - Beamswork Double Power LED 1300 (temp, might run it together with incoming lights) 5. Ocean Free 2200 (temporary power head for circulation) Incoming equipments: 1. 2x Eshine Aquawasher 2. 2x Tunze 6025 (should be getting this one) I'm currently dosing bacteria and Henry's Goodbye PO4 daily!

Hi, Has anyone tested polar distilled water? Is it suitable to use for a marine tank? Read that Life water is recommended though..
