  1. Try cyclop-eeze? They seem to love it....
  2. drill the PVC pipe, then cable tie it.... I believe some people drill their pipes here and there just to allow some water to pass through.. not too sure about this but I did it none the less.. One thing though, it's easy to cover the top of the eggcrates but I have a horrible time trying to cover the sides.. how do you guys do it?
  3. hmm.. i'll try to partition it see how....
  4. Hm.... not many areas for me to relocate... already at the furthest liaos...
  5. Hi guys, I have a DIY auto-top up and I've recently upgraded the tank... anyway here's my problem, after upgrading, the water in the sump is a lot more "turbulent" thus my float switch turns on and off due to the wave action in the sump... Anybody has any ideas how to get rid of this wave action? (very minimal but still present...) Thanks! Ervine
  6. Yah have some algae on the glass.. but the macro algae is so thick I hardly notice it...
  7. Call Petmart... I got mine from there
  8. The more mechanical parts the more likely it is to fail...
  9. Yah just go hardware store loh.. don't forget to get cable ties... try to ask for plastic light difusser.... Try the hardware shop next to the bicycle shop at Serangoon North Ave 2... near Petmart
  10. I bought 3 fires and within a week they are already very active in the tank, anything that spooks them they merely dart back into a cave they have selected... other than that they are always swimming in open water...
  11. They will host in almost anything "furry" mine hosted in a bed of hairy mushrooms before.... sometimes even played with the hammer
  12. Big lions you say? I saw some over at ML.. some also at reborn I think (but they don't look too healthy if you ask me)
  13. Paris should be ex... not sure exactly where he's going though... So basically nothing to look forward to lah?
  14. Hi guys, My brother's going to France for a trip soon, was wondering if there's any thing worth buying there (reef related)? Anyone know? Thanks, Ervine
  15. won't having the chiller so far away cause a little more inefficiency when the cold returning water gains heat from the atmosphere?
  16. Looks sad without a sandbed... No filtration? Skimming? fuge? Nothing? just water changes??
  17. Victron uses a MV ballast if I am not wrong
  18. Huh??? I just dump the algae rock in the fuge and let it grow out by itself...
  19. How about using the exisiting impeller blades, heat them and bend them to form a propeller? I know of some pumps which can reverse the flow, thus drawing water from the outlet and pushing it from the inlet... Long shot...
  20. Go sim lim buy a small (those really small) DC fans, rip out the electronics and there u have your propeller... Only problem is that the output might be slowed down.. How exactly does the stream work anyways?
