I really feel Eheim is sufficent and performs much better than other pumps in the market. I have had experience with Rio pumps. Although mine didnt break down, there are many others whose broke down (partly due to beckett). My theory is that i want a pump tt i wun have to replace for a long time. If the Eheim1262 cost $250 and i replace it maybe in 5 years down, its more economical than buying a rio pump which i might purchase at $100 and need to replace it every 2 years or something. Can consider Aquabee, but hefty price tag.

Iwarna: Quite a few US zoos. In addition to hammers, bubbles, etc. Fishes: Lots of mini blue tangs and other fishes.

Hi multiple nick, nice attempt. Try harder.

Yup i realise. . love checking out the threads at reefcentral, some of them are so well-designed. We can never compare to their tanks. Their electrcity might be cheap, but not ours, if not everyone wld be getting 400 watt MH for the sps. haha. . who wants to go pasir ris beach pluck mangrove? i know where got a lot. .

Actually i have the space to build a refugim tank, propagation tank and water changing reservior. If i do not go ahead with the 2 ft, might invest the money back on the 6 footer instead. I have seen some reefers in reef central with 500 gallons tank, with 250 gallons sump tank cuz refugim. Maybe tt's how the nutrients get exported.

Also selling this orp controller for $220.

bro, how much did your tank cost u actually? I think the 1/10 can serve up to 120-150 gallons, sldnt be a problem. This tank set up will not be cheap, maybe i sld just try to do something to my 6 footer instead. . like build a 100gallons refugim with cheato to draw out the nutrients. .

So which return pump did you use? Or eheim 1264?

My new fishes. . . jk. . .

Those tanks in RC are very inspirational and creative. . might be able to steal some ideas from there. . . bascially the filter works like a coffee bag. . traps all the dirt and washable. . and space-saving. .

Oic. . . actually the clearest is acrylic tank. But i am afraid of scratches. . Its still ideas and more ideas. . . lots of ideas flowing in but not cash. .

You mean use gravity feed for the skimmer? Might be possible to tee off the downflow for calcium reactor.

bro, what is low iron glass?

By using this. . you will save a lot of space in the sump tank for other purposes. Anyway i found this picture in reefcentral, thought its quite innovative, perhaps tank makers can look into this concept. . .

What do you guys think of this??!!!

The problem is that my current tank nutrients level is very high. It will not be good for the sps tank. Anyway how's ur big project coming along? Its always exciting to see new set ups growing. . its like watching a child grow up. .

bro, i need investors already. . need to sell car sell house to feed the hobby. . I check with the tank maker, as long as you cut the glass 1inch more than the subsequent ft, it will be count as the entire ft. Example: a tank with the dimensions 2.5x2.5x2.25 ft wld cost as much as a 3x3x3 ft tank. Now i understand why many reefers along the way switched from small tanks to big tanks and then back to small tanks. Its challenging to maintain a smaller tank, since it requires more precise measurements.

I know a computer system will be better for the tank, unfortunately its slightly costly. Need to get other more impt equipments first. . .

The Deltec851 wld be either inside the cabinet or behind the tank, distance quite far, minimum need Aquabee 2000. Besides from what i read, the more water going thru the skimmer,means more water is treated in that given time, thus efficency increased.

bro, you are born with golden spoon!!! I always wanted a cube tank. . . 2ft cube seems compact and easier to maintain. If i dun have the 6 footer in my house now, i will definately go build a 3x3x2.25 ft tank. Unfortunately most of my money is inside the 6ft tank now, doing a 3 footer cube wld greatly strain my resources. The Lumenarc wld be build inside the cabinet, directly above the sps. . i forsee sld be sufficent. Maintaining two tanks need lots of mollas. . . . . You know any loanshark?

Can't remember where i took this. .
