  1. Hi all, Besides the connection and physical appearance, what is the main difference ? Would you use DE or SE ? LimPC

  4. Seahorse, Anthony, What a way to wrap this up! I'm happy to see a bunch of mature brothers and sisters here. BUT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The problem remains .... ELECTRIC SHOCK!!! If someone can intro lobang for titanium spoke, I wouldn't mind showing this DIY step by step in this forum. Thanks all for actively participating in this thread. LimPC
  5. Spade, thanks for info. Are the hardware cheaper thank here, eg MH bulbs, skimmer, pump ........ Seamonkee, no lah. Will be going a few countries b4 heading home. Only looking for hardware. LimPC
  6. you need a ground probe for sure. It's more of a prevention for shock but importantly, you have to isolate and get rid of the faulty device. LimPC
  7. think so, too. Remember decades ago in school .... something about water finding its own level .... LimPC
  8. Thanks, FuEL. After a couple of unsuccessful attempt, I will valve B open, to be on the safe side. Very please with this concept. Will implement the same to my main tank during the december period. LimPC
  9. No. I have a inner box inside the tank and the intake pipe is about half inch above the box of that box. LimPC
  10. Hi Seahorse, I'll be equally pissed if I were you. Not too sure who and how many have officially opted out ? Seahorse, if we can gather the required number of genuine buyer, would you reconsider to DIY again ? If answer is YES, I will start a thread in bulk order. Anyway, thanks for your offer to DIY. LimPC
  11. Hi all, Might be there soon. Any recommendation ? LimPC
  12. Hi, The metal valve has a threaded end. Drill a 5mm hole, apply silicone on the thread on value and screw it into the hole in the pipe. For the green valve, drill a 5mm hole on the end cap, apply some superglue on the valve and the hole, push the valve in. Hope above helps. LimPC
  13. Guys, Here it is ....... Sorry it's a busy day for me. A little explanation with ref. to the attached picture: Valve A: This is for starting of the siphoning action. Plug a air hose on the valve, suck hard, once water starts to flow, shut the valve. Valve B: This valve sitting on the end cap and the end cap is not permanently glued onto the pipe. Before ###### valve A, fill this pipe with water thro' this T joint. I cover this with end cap once the siphoning takes place. Another observation, if I were to shut the valve B tight, the water flow increases. Thus, if I can control the water flow by fine tuning this valve B. It's still under experiment as this strong water flow may sometimes break the siphon. Maybe, someone can explain this phenomenon scientifically. That's all, folks. LimPC
  14. Hi Seahorse, I'm with you so long as you still want to DIY for us. Cheers! LimPC
  15. Hi PornStar (what a name), Happen to see this box in Diaso in IMM. Kindly of fit the purpose w/o any further modification. But didn't see it recently in the same place. Picture from different angle ? Will try this weekend. LimPC
  16. wah, like dat ... seow liao. Better think of another solution. LimPC
  17. Dude, it's AC not DC. LimPC
  18. Hi all, Here's how I setup my intake. Self explanatory. LimPC
  19. Hi Crab, My return pump is a Resun. You may be right about the actual performance against the stated spec. I have a ball valve on the return to balance the flow. I have a skimming feature as well. Pretty much like your idea but much simpler. Imagine a box inside the tank at the water surface with slots on the top and the pipe intake ###### water from the box. I will try to take pictures tonight for your reference. LimPC
  20. Hi yus75, Not too sure which 2 small black vent line you are referring to ? Can point out in the picture ? The intake pipe is way too low in the main tank. Imagine the return pump malfunction, you will end up with a swimming pool on the outside and fishes dry swimming inside. Do not assume things dun fail. I'm always a strong believer of Murphy's Law. LimPC
  21. Hi all, I have just completed this kind of overflow. Yes, I have done almost exactly the picture posted by Crab. Using 1.5" piping and my return pump is 2800l/hr. BTW, it for my hospital 2ft tank. So far so good, it's self priming. Very neat and tidy comparing to an overflow box on the outside. LimPC
  22. Not a problem, Seahorse. Awaiting your PM. LimPC
  23. Hurray!! Seahorse, if you are reading this thread, we have reached your MOQ. Let us know your plan. LimPC
  24. 5 more to go! Think about safety. Every tank must have one. LimPC
