  1. Hello everyone , i have a non-inverter 1hp daikin compressor with me , anyone here knows of a person that can help me modify and install the compressor can recommend me?
  2. Heres a pic of the incomplete sump , didnt have the time to finish up the piping and set up the equipments as i had to rush to book in today ... so have to wait till next weekend to set everyhing up !!
  3. So its finally here !!! Here are pics of what happened through out the day , really like how the tank turned out.. kudos to Mr Vincent for coming down on a Sunday to set it up despite injuring his fingers , it just shows how dedicated he is to his job. If you noticed , there are no cross bracing fir this tank , the reason for that is because i wanted to create an open look similar to a rimless design , but excluding the hefty price tag , that is why i opted for a single braced tank.
  4. Thanks jeebusai bro , it will be an open concept . Personally i think it makes the tank look very advanced and hi-tech!!! Something to boast and show relatives when they come for a visit
  5. Nice piping!!! My new tank also using this 2 colors , IMO looks very modern and appealing
  6. I also purchased some cord hooks and cable ties from daiso today to help with cable management , as I always believe that a sump should be just as aestetic as the main display.... anyways looking forward to setting up all the equipments tomorrow (most enjoyable part about reefing) and will definitely update all of you while doing so
  7. HAHA sorry guys for disappointing!! The tank itself will be delivered on Sunday instead of today ... but the cabinet came!!! Heres some pics of just the cabinet alone . I had vincent include a dry area to put all my power bars and controllers to keep the sump nice and tidy
  8. Hello everyone , do you all have any recommendation of shops that provide fabrication services with acrylics? I am looking to make a algae turf scrubber but im seriously bad at DIY stuffs
  9. As for replenishing trace elements , i will be sticking to a regular water change schedule ( once every two weeks) and utilizing dead corals in my calcium reactor for the time being , until otherwise neccasary . I will also be testing out the pappone / blu coral method in this build to see if it really does increase growth and intensify coral coloration.
  10. The tank , as the name suggests will be predominantly filled with SPS . Hopefully with proper husbandry , ill be able to successfully keep a couple of tangs , angels and other fishes as well.
  11. Hello fellow reefers , I will be starting a new thread to track the progress of my new up coming tank , to share my insights with the reefing community as well as to recieve valuable advice from all the experienced reefers out there. A short introduction of myself , i started a simple all-in-one redsea max 150 back in 2014 keeping mainly softies and lps corals. It was a second hand tank that was handed over to me by my uncle , whom was also the person that introduced me to the wonderful world of reefing. Being young , impatient (actually still am , working on it) and unknowledgable , i made many mistakes in the past which i will rectify and improve on in the following build. The name of the thread suggests a few characteristics of my tank . Firstly , most of the equipments that ill be using are mid tiered equipments and some of them are second-hand. This is to cut the cost of setting up the tank and to see if it is really neccessary to spend a ton of money on equipments. So without further ado , these are the equipments : Tank: -5x2x2 display tank , single euro braced , 12mm, front side crystal glass -4x2x2 sump tank normal glass Custom Made by aquarium artist Lightings: -4x grassycore LED lights Skimmer: -Skimz Oval 257 skimmer Return pump: -Ecotech Marine Vetra L1 Calcium Reactor: -Skimz 157 dc calcium reactor with secondary chamber -2x 3L CO2 cylinder -intense solenoid -MC122 ph controller Auto-top off: innovative marine auto top off Wavemakers: -2x gyre xf250 with advanced controller RO/di unit: -Zero RO/di 5stage -216L water drum with float valve Salt: -3x Skimz PUR reef salt Redundancies (might be planning to add more): -Caperplus ph and temperature monitor I will upload more pictures when the tank arrives this coming saturday , so stay tuned!
  12. Thanks for answering my question!!! I thought it wouldnt be compatible hahaha thanks alot , think i would get a mid tiered ph probe so that it doesnt burn a hole in my wallet!!!
  13. The cost of replacing my mc122 milwaukee probe is 98 dollars which is pretty expensive. Has any bro or sis out here tried to use a different brand of probe to replace their old pH probe? Are they compatible?
  14. Hello bros and sis, has anyone used the grassycore LEDS before? Anyone has reviews on it and how it compares to the other higher end lightings like AI or radions?
