our sponsor, Reef Systems, ordered through them.

Believes its better as in scenario of emergency to 1 pump, another is still running for the whole system while you find a replacement.

My return should be 2*32mm and the reason I opt for 2 units rather than 1unit of return is more for contingencies and also each pump will be teed off for different purposes. Yes, the Fluval sea are Askoll pump and specially made for Saltwater and marine usage.

Have always wanted a Bandit pair but my current 3 feet is too small to house a pair. Besides bandit, will have also another or 2 pairs of dwarf angels. They are so easy to pair! Yes, bandits actually approach divers in Hawaii out of curiousity. They seem to be very inquisitive and curious as compared to many other Pomancanthidae and will follow you around should you walk past the tank. I believe there are several Bandit owners out there as so long you get from a good and collect source (usually means slightly more $), Bandits can be relatively easy.

Thanks bro, trying to go as wide as possible my living room can tolerate before my mum send me and my fishes out of the house

Thanks bro, awaits its arrival on Saturday. Hopefully will be able to upload more photos by then. Its not really that shallow, just 1/1/2 feet tall suited for a shorter guy like me

Firstly, this is a new pump by Hagen which they specifically mentioned that is for saltwater usage(Not many pump maker state that). In addition, this is a sump pump which means it is specially to be used in sump area as return and hence head loss should be much lesser compare to other return pump. Hagen also claim that it has low heat transfer and adapt a "energy saving technology" to reduce power consumption. For more info you can visit this URL http://reefbuilders.com/2012/05/16/fluval-sea-recirculation-pumps/ . Price wise, may varies so you can contact various vendors that carry this pump such as N30 or Iwarna.

My bad should be cm or 1200mm * 660mm *450mm

While anxiously anticipating the arrival of my new tank, I have decided to start this thread to chronicle the progress of this tank. Currently, I am still having some issues with getting temporary homes for the live stocks that I wishes to keep even though most of them have already found new owners and new homes. Nonetheless, I would like to thank some reefing bros that I knew for a long time (Eg. Gouldian and Jewel) for the help they will be providing or the stress they are already undertaking by looking after some of the livestock that will be going into this tank. My ideal tank was to be as wide as possible as I wanted the "feel" of depth despite the space constraint at my place and I also opt for a shallower tank for ease of maintenance as I am not very tall. Being a avid fan of crystal clear top after looking at some of TFC's tanks, I have opt for a zero brace at the top and also a crystal glass front for viewing and photography. I needed this tank to have as much flow and turnover as possible, as detritus piling up was the main concern and hence, after some recommendation, I have decided to go with 2 return pumps, each powered by a "Fluval Sea Sump Pump SP4" rated at 7200LPH designed and build for marine setup. Below are the full details Setup Tank: 120cm * 66cm * 45cm Lighting: 2 * 95 watt LED (AI VEGA) (1 existing, 1 new) Skimmer: Deltec SC 1455(existing) Return: 2* Fluval Sea SP4 (new) Chiller: HS 300A (existing, will want to upgrade) Calcium reactor: PF501(new) Optional 1) Bio-pellet reactor 2) Fluidised reactor Livestock Corals: SPS, LPS, softies One of the main reason i upgraded to this tank is because I wanted a bigger home and also to get a lovely partner for one of my existing fish, the Bandit Angelfish (A. Arcuatus). The Bandit Angelfish is renown for being tough to feed, delicate and perishes after few weeks to months but this is only true to a certain extent as most Bandits are poorly collected and kept in ill condition facilities before shipping out to us. I have found out that at the right size and understanding the source of collections, a Bandit can be rather hardy and easy to keep and the owner will enjoy the amazing "puppy like" personality it has. My current Bandit has been with me for several months and have grown slightly from the 9cm individual when I first purchased it from "Aquarium Iwarna". Now with this tank, I would love to acquire another similar size individual to pair it up with this one that I have. Being a angelfish nuts, this tank will also being housing some interesting dwarfies aka Centropyge and one of them is already residing in the sump of my bro, Gouldian's tank giving him the utmost stress . Once again, thank you bro I am still planning my fish list and there are some which I am searching high and low but currently can only dream. At the same time, I would want my bio-load to be as low as possible but i know its very tough as I am predominantly a " fish guy".

My Joculator angel should be about 5 years now.

Bro Gouldian: Hope to catch all in one go.
