My new tank 4 x 2 x 2 display with cabinet and sump

[kanegan]

Today was suppose to mark a very special day for me.

This is the first time I am getting a brand new tank. Made just for me. All my previous & current tanks were pre-owned.

So it is with great anticipation that I waited for this day.

The tank set has arrived and I am waiting for curing of the piping BUT I am not celebrating.

Why? My brand new custom made cabinet was delivered damaged.

Should I turn a blind eye and curse my bad luck?

[kanegan]

This is just one defect....

[Kakani]

Since it a new item ask them change for you.

[kanegan]

Some other defects.

[Anchorman]

Hi bro, imo you can make claims against the tank maker either repair all the defects or demand a discount of the tank price if u can accept such defects. Btw, u should not have made full payment in this case. Have u?

[kaykay]

The Lemon Law was passed to protect consumers for instances like this. Do speak with the tank maker for a resolution.

[kanegan]

Not made full payment yet.

[kanegan]

Not made full payment yet.

[MarcoVan]

then take a 30% discount on full payment

[hanafi_weeseng]

Lucky for u if make full payment I think the tank maker will take their time to entertain u

[Ahhyi]

Omg. It looks like an old cabinet. U should ask them to redo

My CO very upset because of this. suey.

will not talk about tank maker at this time.

Project tank migration delayed...

Note: The tank itself is excellent quality, cabinet is the problem.

[yellowtang]

Don't even take a discount! It shd be rejected outright.

Play hard ball, man.

Hi all,

Thanks for the comments.

I hope you understand that it is not advantageous for me to discuss anything about my tank maker while we are in negotiations. Let us just say that they are being responsive and responsible at this time.

Since final verdict is still out, I prefer not indirectly inflict any damages to their reputation.

Update:

My cabinet was replaced with a newly made one but with slightly different specs.

The sump tank couldn't fit and had to be replaced too.

Dust has finally settled on the whole tank issue and cycling is in process.

Hope to start sharing more soon.

Great to hear responsible tank makers in Singapore...

Good to hear that all is well again.

Really taking my time with this tank due to the earlier delay and current work commitments.

Some information on my setup.

Carrying on with my experiment with my 3 x 2 x 2.5 feet tank, the new tank will be skimmerless as well.

Current equipment list

Return pump ehiem 1262

Wave maker Jebao WP40

Chiller Hailea 300a with Dymax Ph1200

Chaeto light warm white led bulb

Lights: yet to be decided....

Old tank and cabinet set has been decommed and awaiting trash disposal....

To be continued...

Hi Kanegan, how do you maintain the nutrients level if you go skimmer less? Do you have a secret recipe to share?

[digibee]

Hi bro,

Who is your tank maker?

I want to avoid ......
