Bro, I think your stand supports not so ideal.. Refer here.. http://www.garf.org/stand.html The horizontal pieces supposed to "wrap" the verticals.. From your construction, seems like the horizo

Oh wait. Or is the stand standing on its sides in the last picture?? Then it's ok..

Can I suggest something? The horizontal beams is not strong if u mount it this way. Is better if it is sited onto the vertical beam.

May I know where you purchase the valves from? Are you using Schedule 40 pvc pipes?

Hi bro.

I'm using 25mm valves.

I bought it from Hai Cheong located at Kallang Way.

After migration to the new tank with NSW plus using existing rocks, the parameter swing a lot plus major reduction in the bacteria. Seeing diatoms but not as much as typical new cycling tank process.

Constantly dosing bacteria to replenish the die off...now seeing the corals PE and also pulsing xenia that survived has started to stay floating.

Some xenia which felt off from the rocks also encrusted on the acrylic base.

Will DIY another set of LED lighting for this configuration.

Oceanviper Bro,

Best DIY job I have seen in Singapore, why not you can create an Youtube Channel to share on your knowledge and ideas in Youtube like "The King of DIY" which located in Canada. I being watching his Video on all his DIY job and learn quite a number things from Him. But due to he is in Canada, the price he spend and some item is not available in Singapore. Since you in Singapore you maybe can share the process and things that you use and purchase from where.

Espcially come to Wood and Acrylic Singapore is like.. Where is all DIY shop..

Give you Both BIG THUMBS up from your DIY.. hope to see more..

Edmund

Hi Edmund bro.

Thanks for the compliment. I'm just one out of the millions DIY gurus there.

I only get the material from local shops and use my home power tools to cut etc.

Is difficult for me to post any video as I'm not a full time DIY, just doing it for own appreciation.

I don't mind share my experience...just pm me and we can discuss rather than giving pointers....as I'm still learning here.

Don't know to appreciate the tank making skills or the reefing skills.  Guess both:lol:

Hi Aloy bro.

Is just my own personal interest on DIY.
