hey bro...actually 28degreeC is still acceptable. but if can get it lower, y not?

if your corals are not doing well...get a fan pls....the corals will die if u dun...

wat kind of lights are u using? fan should be good enuf for pl and t5. as for MH, good luck, maybe i can go and haf bbq fish?? get the diy computer fan or ready-made clip on fan sold in almost all LFS...

go to yishun central, buy the one that costs $28. i m using it with my pl lights for my 3ft tank...temperature at 26-27degreeC...

if your tank is bigger than 3ft then i suggest you get 2 fans...or even the "6 fan combo" by ocean-free....

MY OLD 3ft!!

My Latest Plan!!

go yishun to buy those that cost $30. can't remember the shop name. $28 is no good quality. $30 better.

MH with fan is oki, but u need to top up water frequently.

28 is good liao. some with chiller setting that temperature.

one fan gives u drop of 2C, additional fan another 1C.

so onz n forth, diminishing returns. also the surface area

where the water can evaporate (n hence remove heat) is

fixed. Adding more n more fan, drop in temperature

becomes minimum. (after reaching optimal level)

I also using a $20+ fan from aquastar. Its those big commercial kind fan but with an added clip. Much cheaper that those oceanfree kind fans.

Why do we use "My 2 cents worth" when 1 cents are not legal tender in Singapore anymore? Shouldn't it be 5 cents worth?

My experience with MH and fan? Mine is a 150w MH light with a fan. The temp is always constant at 27degrees.

BTW my jewel coral, Yumas & mushrooms can even do well at 30+ degrees.. (That was before I blew the fan directly at the water) :P

      How do I Recover Scammed Cryptocurrency

      The alarming growth of cryptocurrency investment scams these days is truly distressing. I never believed I would become of the victims, but I was proven wrong. It's true that you can't judge a book by its cover, as the fraudulent company I invested in appeared legitimate. They even had a group chat where people shared testimonies of quick profits after investing. This gave me a false sense of security and made me believe I could easily earn without much effort and stress. After my first cryptocurrency investment; An account manager was assigned to handle my trades and notify me when it was time to withdraw. Initially, I invested smaller amounts $5,000 USD and successfully withdrew my profits. Feeling comfortable, I even voluntarily testified in the Telegram group. However, things took a turn when the manager advised me to increase my investment for a promotional offer. From that point, I faced difficulties with withdrawals after increasing my investment. The manager acted concerned, making it seem like he was not involved, and Advised me to go along with the fees I was asked to pay for me to regain access to withdrawals. I later discovered the truth after working with Century Web Recovery. They successfully recovered my entire crypto investment and my profits from these scammers after they’ve caused me a lot of damages mentally. If you need assistance, contacting Century Web Recovery on email or Website is the best decision to recovering back your funds. If you wish to reach them kindly Google Century Web Recovery then you can contact them.
