whoa gorgeous tank bro.

what you planning to keep....does your piping for your chiller run through the next room?

[Dispar_Anthias]

Wow nice start up

[acidjazz]

Its a set up i can only fantasize about. .

[haanZii]

Hi Scroll,

Am still deciding what to keep. but for start, maybe with LS/LR.

Yes u r right. plan to place the chiller at the next room which is the kitchen.

here the pic taken at the kitchen.

[haanZii]

here r more of my setup pics.

my sump. was feeling kinda difficult to replace the filters.... any suggestion???? bros....

was thinking of changing the glass cube to a higher one. so the piping can be shorter....

[weishun]

More pics!! More pics!!! Nice startup... love to view these kinda pics...

[haanZii]

piping holds up high with proper cuppling.

btw, am looking for hugh LR, anyone letting go please do let me know..

thks

[haanZii]

i'm using Mak 4 pump as the main pump. for future pump for chiller, will go for Eheim.

[haanZii]

connection for the down pipe from overflow.

[haanZii]

connection for the return. will have a total of 3 return. 2 from main pump & 1 from chiller. what u see now is 1 for main pump & theother from chiller....

[hotlemond]

I like the rounded trimming of the hood and cabinet, looks very pro and expensive.

Oh God, mine isn't half as good

[haanZii]

Closer look at my overflow. notice the 2 pipes?? was advise by my tank maker that by doing so, will guarantee reduce the noise make by the water throwing down.

[haanZii]

the round trim have a litte bit of feng shui involved la. cause when i open my main door, directly see the edge not nice... so make it round. hoho...

finally, water leakage test..... water coming....my wife behind asking how much will the water cause....act blur for a ahile since then.....haha

anyway, calculated the amount of water is around 800 litres. pew.. siong.....
