SRC Supporter SubzeroLT Posted October 18, 2016 SRC Supporter Share Posted October 18, 2016 Silicon work is quite nicely done. Freehand or with masking tape? Quote Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/mysliceofnature/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can fit some decent equipments.. New pump arrived.. Still prefer DC pump. Quiet and less heat..Rock scape.. Need more rocks on the left side..Sent from my LG-H961N using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Supporter SubzeroLT Posted October 20, 2016 SRC Supporter Share Posted October 20, 2016 Sump looks very nicely done. DCT4000 pump? Quote Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/mysliceofnature/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Sim Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Nice return pump but really have to observe for failure rate ! So far mine can last me for more than a year but power wise will decrease over time. The rock scape is nice but it will be better if you place it on left side of the tank. More updates !

SRC Member dsam Posted October 29, 2016 SRC Member Share Posted October 29, 2016 Great job done on the sump tank mod. Was it difficult to remove the old original silicon? Careful on the choked filter socks over the time which can result overflowing and flood the area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
