Deeply fascinated by the lush colours of a coral reef, I decided to start taking reefing seriously. Quoted from an article I read, "...sensory overload, assaulted by colors and patterns...Coral reefs are unquestionably the world's most colorful places."

Before I can start having these beautiful corals (or fishes or invertebrates... etc), I need to setup a suitable place to house them. I have been going through numerous tank threads and visited several reefers to admire their setups. Finally, I think it is time to start something.

With limited budget, I turned to SRC - Pasar Malam for help... Fortunately, with the aid of several friendly SRC reefers, I managed to acquire the necessary equipments. As so, my tank thread is BB (BoonBoy's) Used (equipment) Setup. Let me start by saying a big "Thank you" to the SRC reefers that had made this possible for me with your equipment and/or knowledge.

Nice equipment list but the chiller seems quite overkill bro lol.
Yes, could not find a lower end chiller at the point of purchase. :)
Ya, the chiller seem too big for the tank. Ready for a tank upgrade soon? :)
Ha ha... Always ready when my wallet is. :)

overkill chiller is ok. great looking set up! maybe can consider getting a 4x ATI/Delightings or Solite (individual reflectors type) T5 light set instead of using 6 aquazonic?

Thanks, unfortunately, the tank is not big enough...

hi bro list of equipment looks good

instead of the aquazonic, may also consider getting a led setup form pasar malam to get the natural shimmer effect...will be a joy to watch the fish & corals

my 2 cents worth

Thanks, switched to LEDs.

More pics of your display pls.

Nothing much really. Only 3rd week of cycling. Added some frags of Zoas from the pico that I just decommed.
