Hi Guys,

Just recently setup my 6 footer and few linked tanks in my studying room, here is the current pic. Since after that I often can see reefer one after another decommission from their big monster, so it's abit scaring to see mine up actually, hope this monster will last me long... :rolleyes:

I am sure you are one of the hardcore reefer, and pretty sure you will be in for a long time :rolleyes:

Come over sometime and will pass you some basic color sticks to test out your tank condition :friends:

Treat others the way you wanna be treated...

Long time never update my tank... Well, adjusted quite number of things, like additional LED bulbs to support SPS, cleared some big fishes, red/borwn/green algaes treatment... Recently out off itch hand to put in a leopard blenny almost made me mad, now at least back to normal, Corals n SPS started recovering. Anyway, still need a long journey to reach a successful mixed reef with LED lighting. Here is the recent pic took from my iphone under full lights on.

My next step will be targeting for a constant Ca, Mg, KH dosing, of course, my No3 n Po4 still need to be lower down.

Fishes? yes, only 7 small fishes...

This is my uncompleted shallowed tank, size is 2.5ft x 2.5 x 1.5H, maybe will allocate some space for frags...

What is your water level to tank height? I guess there is a 2 inch at least? Supporting your led on pipes ?

u need to play around with the clearance between water height and the light clearance based on your level of sight for photos without light reflection, then again the overflow part may have issue.

Time to start a new thrend... :cheers:

      WTS Tanks, Equipment

      Hey everyone, I've a set of many things to sell off as one set. The following are in this set: 1. Long fish tank, 90x30x30 - beautiful glass, well taken care of, no scratches 2. Standard fish tank, 60x45x45 - beautiful glass, as you can see, still with bottom and top cardboard covers. 3. Metal stand for the long tank - rusted by strong. Usable. Please note the width of this stand is 50, and the long tank's width is 30, so there's around 15 cm space. 4. Nano tank, well taken care of. Beautiful glass. (The gadgets in there all taken out, so just tank with it's back sump. 5. A baby tank 6. A bunch of stuff: - Tidal 35, Seachem filter - two oxygen pumps - plastic fish tank protein skimmer - portable fan - large wavemaker - 90x45 nice tank background poster - mini filters Basically what's in there + take. In the photos below, I've saved some pictures from when I purchaser them. These were all used for marine/saltwater fish - if you want to convert to others; simply wash (that's why I got these tanks, flexibility). I've used them for a year or less. Selling since these are in my office, and we have settled on one custom size. And we may be moving. Need to send these off. Would prefer someone to take everything, clear everything. Only $220 for everything. If I see anything else I don't want laying around, I'll also pass to you. Self-collection/self pick up. Location: Indus Road, ground floor. PM me if keen, cheers!e0774394470a15537f6187c32e4cb04f.avif sg-11134201-22100-a8sr3atpx6ivfe.avif
