What I can input here from my understanding is that.. Different people comes from different backgrounds.. Each are brought up in a different way.. Each person have a different way of acting and talking.. In a previous post i said this before.. When people communicate face to face.. We can understand and identify what they are trying to imply better through face expressions,tones,body language and how they talk.. Through text messages we can understand only by the messages they type and miss out the rest of the important expressions.. What im trying to point out here is that.. we shouldnt take the things people say here to harshly.. be it sacrastic or crude remarks.. just let it off unless it something concearning life and death situation.. commercial or buisness issues will be submited to higher authorities (eg. SRC mods) to handle.. and dont be too itchy hand/mouth and add a comment to it.. jus voicing out my opinions

i would skip the idea of using a fan if possible.. what i experience the last time i used a fan to chill my nano was that some of the water evaporated with salt and crystalised all over my tank equipments and i have swings of salinity.. and fans are pretty noisy..if ur placing it in a place where u need to enjoy peace then i wont really recommend the fan.. a second option would be the ice-probe =)

=) i think the most stressful part is pumping money into this hobby.. well..a lil advice.. purchase the more expensive and effective equipments.. it will serve you well and give u less headaches in the near future.. from my experience.. i spent most of my money upgrading... which is a waste of time and money.. and.. try not to trust LFS too much.. do researchs on equipments/livestock u r buying.. Hope that helps someway or another

-2ft Tank with sump (with a cabinet,be prepared to pay for a new setup around $200-$500) -T5HO (4 tubes would cost u around $100-$250) -Chiller [depends on the branding.. -Resun (cheapest) -Daiel,RR,Teco(more expensive..by the 100s) (Recommend u to get a Resun CL280($240-$350)/Resun CL450($300-$400) remember the bigger the chiller the more effecient it is to cool down ur tank and..getting a better chiller would save u the hassle of upgrading next time if u plan to go for a bigger tank -Skimmer (macro needlewheel suggested) Macro 300AP $80-$200?..if im not wrong..not really sure of the pricing or if u can afford a beckett..it would definitely be much better and effecient beckett would cost u around $300-$450 -Fluidised reactor with phospate remover depends on the branding too.. Resun one would cost u around $25-$55? well..u can always find good bargains at the Pasar Malam(Buy/Sell) shop in this forum.. =)

well.. dont get offended too easily.. we tend to misjudge people easily through "typed out" words (eg. sms/msn/forums) take things lightly

pmed you two times but no reply.. really interested buyer here..

for the sump.. u can have either biological/mechanical filtration with refugium or biological/mechanical filtration without refugium or refugium without bio/mech filtration.. but the filter wool is sure a must to put to rid the dirtss.. yes!..a skimmer is always a must! the recommended setup i can suggest is -2ft Tank with sump -T5 -Chiller -Skimmer (macro needlewheel suggested) -Fluidised reactor with phospate remover
-
DSB is also known as Deep Sand Bed.. used in a refugium area in a sump tank =).. or used as a base for a main tank.. it refers to adding a thick coating of sand more than 4"-5" DSB are known to use to control nutrient levels if used correctly..
-
Planning to get a refugium?(requires sand).. Going for biological/mechanical filtration?(bioballs/coralchips).. Depends on your planned space for your equipments and subtrates.. And wheter u want to add a refugium for your sump some local fish shop(lfs) sells Natural Sea Water in jerry cans or big plastic bags.. that is the other alternative can start adding live rocks once your water salinity is stabilised what type of setup u planning to keep? FOWLR (begineer) Reef Tank Soft Corals?..(slightly easier require PL lightings at least) LPS(hard skeleton corals)..(advance harder..requires more light attention [T5]?) SPS ...(expert require 150w or more MH lighting) Depends on your skimmer and filtration settings.. the better ur skimming and filtration..the more fishes u can keep.. and what type of fishes u keeping? A skimmer is a must!.. A canister..mostly people use them if the dont have a sump tank.. but some kiasu ones add a canister for extra filtration which is not really necessary Just shoot me if there is any queries ill be here to help =)

in my honest opinion.. read more/ask more about setting up and maintaining a marine tank.. the bros/sis in this forum and even me will gladly assist you.. time to take your tank under your control.. Cheers!.. -
