  1. Hi Bro IAN, Reeftask and BFG for sharing your knowledge...I will consider all your suggestion and hope to balance things out. I am so glad that I am in this forum to enable me to learn and gather knowledge
  2. Hi Ian and Reeftask, Thanks for the suggestion. My Skimmer currently is running on a 2500l/h pump. I wanted a higher return so that I can have the water exchange faster and more. In my Sump, there are 3 compartments: 1. the return pipe is going thru a series of LR on the first column 2. the second column is the pump to chiller and also pump to refrigium 3. last column is return pump, Skimmer (return pipe to 2nd column) and return from Chiller and Refrigium I am not sure whether this placement is correct but seems like no choice due to the Sump design. I was thinking if I have a higher return, I can use it to generate wave in the Main tank, this will reduce the number of wave maker in the tank. Please continue to feed me with info so that I can make the right choice and learn more things....that is why I am in this forum (to learn)
  3. The reason for getting high flow is that I am using a 4x2x2.5 and a 3ft sump. I want to have at least 10times of water circulation. With the return having 4 elbow joints and about 2 meters high. I think a pump with at least 6000L/Hr or higher should be sufficient, right? I have considered Heailea but it uses 200w, I believed that it not only will runs the PUB bill but also the water will be heated up. Therefore, looking for something better. Btw, I am now using a 3000l/hr pump, it did give me some current. Thus I think 6000 should be able to give more current.
  4. thanks bro reeftask for the advice. Will take note and read the manual.
  5. Hi Thexder, thanks. How is the flow in the main tank. Is yours 2meters in height with some elbow bend? Hope to findout more info as to guage better.
  6. The height from the chiller to Main Tank is about 2meters plus piping to Sump another 2ft. So what size of pump will enable me to have it cause some flow to the Main Tank and not going through the chiller too fast and not able to chill down the temperature. I know it is a tough question and hope to see more advice. :thank:
  7. thanks david....I saw it but it is expensive. trying to see in between as budget is not too high. Pocket empty liao after all the entertainment with friends...sianz
  8. Hi, I would like to seek advice on what pump should I use for the above chiller. For info: 1. Chiller sitting on the floor and main tank top is about 2m vertical. 2. Water from sump to chiller to main tank I have tried 400gal/hr and t cannot make it, water outlet in main tank is like children peeing....sianz. Please help me as I am at a lost what and how should I do? Should I take water from sump and return back to sump (although this will cost less electricity but it will caused my Main Tank to fractuate from 28degree to 31degree.
  9. Hi, I would like to know what pump can go above 5000L/Hrs and running at low wattage. I know Hailea 6550 can provide 6000l/hr but had a wattage of 200 and it would be costly to run in a long term. Please kindly advise. Thanks.
  10. Aqua Marine @ Jln Kayu or Katong.
  11. Hi, Just like to check any golfing kaki here? Will be nice to have a round of golf @ Marina and share Reefing experience at the same time. So interesting, kill 2 birdie at one go Please post.
  12. It should be: 5. DUN KNOCK ON MY DOOR TO ASK IF THERE ARE ANYMORE. WYSIWYG
  13. Hi goldfish, Hopes that yours will improve and than I will follow your steps. Currently, my most headache is getting rid of brown algae. Sianz.....
  14. Is it worth the cost? If I use TAP Water filter (cost around $105) and can get 300-500L and the 2nd refill would be $50 replacement, wouldn't this save more money although it is a hassel to wait for the dripping water? In the long run, it would save more than buying DI water, wouldn't it? Just 2 cents worth of thoughts.
  15. Hi Bro fishtalk, just like to check whether it is still running in your tank? If yes, would love to see it and if skimming well, I would take it on the spot. Do let me know. Thanks. PS, are you staying near Hammy place?
  16. Oh!!!AT last finished the whole thread...really tired as it cost so much to learn & maintain Keep up the good works bro....you are definitely a PRO in this. Great piece of Reefing.
  17. Okie....sorry for the hurting the wound SO how is the dual FR doing?
  18. Still at 186 and tabulated that you have easily spent: Main Tank only: Tank = S$??? Pump & Wave maker = S$3000+ or more Aquatronics = S$4000 or more Lights = S$4000 or more Skimmer =S$2000+ or more Chiller = S$2000+ or more Exclude Fishes & Corals This is only the main items, you easily spent = S$30K in this hobby :bow::bow::bow::bow::bow::bow: :angel:Will definitely like to view the LIVE show
