SRC Member Tanggy Posted April 11, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted April 11, 2004 OIC was wondering why you said got problem with water flow out to sump.... The size of the overflow make a difference. A fact that many people tend to miss out. Not just the size of the output pipe. Think reef central got a calculator to calculate the recommended size for desired flow rate. I had wanted to make my as small as I can make it (7x7inch.) but ended up with one thats 11inch x 8. The size of an A4 page!! but what to do.

SRC Member kschew1498 Posted April 11, 2004 Author SRC Member Share Posted April 11, 2004 Very space consuming hor.....I was quite puzzled when I saw your overflow so big just now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member kschew1498 Posted April 12, 2004 Author SRC Member Share Posted April 12, 2004 Sea Life is in Hong Leong right? I always confuse Sea Life and Marine Life....pai say! By the way, you use the samllest grade huh? May I ask if there is any difference? or its just purely comfortable to your eye sight?! Appreciate your advise.

SRC Member CalciumReef Posted April 12, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted April 12, 2004 Marine life is at hong leong Sealife is at balestier behind hoover hotel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member alanseah Posted April 12, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted April 12, 2004 no sea life is at 240 Balestier Rd S(329702) ML is the one that is at Hong Leong... well they r sand after all.. so the same theory apply to why u should get a grade 0 sand rather then those 3-4 grade size sand...
