Turquoise Colt leather extends to rugby ball size. Been with me since 2017. letting go cheap to make space for other corals $30 collection in Pasir Ris. contact 9sixthree307four0 or pm me if interested Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

Opens up to approx. 8cm diameter. Going for $30 photo taken in 6500k lighting. Also throwing in a leftover mangrove shoot and a small rock with a few Red people eater zoas and another unknown zoa with purchase (reason: incompatible with new fish stocking) PM or whatsapp me @ nine6three607four0 cheers Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

A bigger system will definitely be better because of stability given greater water volume. if you have a busy schedule, a single medium-large system is a a great choice imo. And yes, a sump is most ideal for us on the marine side of things for better management of filtration and equipment. RoDi water is the best route if you’re keeping a mixed reef with different corals or going for mostly hard corals. Personally I use distilled water but I only keep softies, and they do just fine even in tank heavily-stocked with fish. Our tapwater is one of the best in the world so you need not worry about it contaminating your tank(though i would advise against it long-term as the small amounts of nitrate and phosphate will build up eventually, if you do little to no water changes or have no alternative means of nutrient export like a refugium growing macroalgae for e.g) You can check out BRStv on youtube for more in-depth videos, guides and discussion regarding this hobby. Do understand that there will be differences here and there though, since their market is mainly for those living in the states. They will mention things like needing a heater and not having a chiller turn on except during the summer months. For us here in SG, especially if you want to run your tank’s water temp below 28 degrees, your chiller is going to be switching on daily.

agree with R0B, ultimately a chiller makes more sense if you want to maintain temp at 28 degrees and below. if it hits 31 degrees sometimes I really doubt it’d be able to lower the overally water temp to 28 before the fans go bust hahaha. not to mention your tank is also pretty tall so it might take an even longer time to bring the temperature down. you could try going for a secondhand HS-66A hailea chiller. perfect for a tank of your volume imo. cheers Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

if you want to lower and maintain at 29 degrees i think fans still do a decent job for a tank of that size. wanting to go lower than 28 is definitely tough though, especially considering the lighting schedule warming the water. also means your water would evaporate much quicker and in our climate you’ll prolly need your fan on most of the time if you’re looking to see and maintain a 2-3 degree drop in temp.

up still searching for them trees and unique fingers Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

to add.. most fish would benefit more from a longer/wider tank than a taller one. unless it’s something below 1.5ft i wouldn’t worry about it Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

they do just fine in 2ft tanks. depth doesnt matter much for captive fish unless they are more vertical in design, e.g. younger batfishes and seahorses Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

you can try your luck on the src fb group or carousell hahaha Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

2ft is usually the standard for home marine aquariums. i actually thought you meant 3ft depth as in horizontal depth(width) hahaha. but if it’s 3ft deep vertically then it’s definitely going to be a challenge reaching the bottom and keeping corals at or near the base of the tank Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

yes it works like an a/c to cool your tank. i don’t have exact figures but generally the faster you can get your chiller to cool the water volume and thereby run less often with a stronger chiller/compressor unit (typically 6ft/250 gallons or more i’d run 1hp and above) the more you’ll save on your electricity bill. there are many lfs that can help with the installation, you could try iwarna or de aquatic Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

you can get an external thermostat for more reliable control of the temperature you want to cool the water to. that.. i think really depends on individual height in relation to the tank dimensions hahaha. also depends on whether there’s a hood/rim above the tank that will add to its height. if you can access the tank from both front and back there shouldn’t be a problem. but i can imagine it being troublesome if you can only do maintenance from one side, and if the tank height is more than 2ft. Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

depends on your goals. personally i would go for a 6ft if i had the space to accommodate for it. that said typically bigger tanks 6ft and above might as well install a compressor instead of a chiller. and bigger skimmer, return pump etc. 4ft is a really good size for a reef tank too. i have a 6x3x2.5ft display with medium-large fish with leathers and easy polyp softies and tbh 3ft depth isn’t an issue at all if you’re keeping fish only(in fact the extra space is definitely better for fish)but if you plan to load your entire surface area with corals it also means you probably need more lighting units for the spread. also means more surface area to scrape algae off or do maintenance in general so yeah probably more manual work but a larger system = greater water volume and therefore stability so ultimately that’s the better deal imo.

yes to both Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

are they all on the same rock? or individual frags? Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

sorry bro, already have this one. looking for other varieties [emoji4] Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

up pls pm or whatsapp 96three607four0 if you have any to let go Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

i don’t think they harm corals.. so even without predators they probably won’t be an issue. kinda neat having a micro/mini cleanup crew all over your main display hahaha Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

more surprisingly how did it get that big?? hahahaha. guess your fish aren’t interested in these guys Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

as someone who’s kept octopus a number of times before i think the most important thing for an octopus tank is definitely having a lid to prevent it from escaping. second is the filtration. system could use a skimmer as they produce quite a lot of waste. for tankmates avoid fish of any kind, they will likely either harass the octopus or get eaten. inverts like starfish should be fine as clean up crew(crustaceans like shrimp & hermits will prolly become food). the rest of the setup should be similar to a typical fowlr. 1) similar to fowlr, personally i’d go with at least 10x tank turnover return flow. having rock structures big enough for it to hide in/amongst is ideal 2) definitely something more subdued, most cephalopods are sensitive to bright light and octopus definitely feel more comfortable coming out when it’s dim 3) mechanical filtration like socks/pads/floss + protein skimmer suitable for your system volume(also oxygenates the water a lot) 4) weighted lid cover, can try redsea’s customizable product for this 5) might wanna run some activated carbon in a reactor or a mesh bag in the beginning to double as water filtration along with the skimmer for any ink the octopus might secrete Hope this helps Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
