Ballpark cost of 4ft set up

[sunny130y]

Hi Fellow reefers,

I'll be relocating to the Lion City soon and would like to set up a new tank. I would like to have ball park cost before I start visiting LFS. Hope you guys can help me with following:

1) Ballpark cost for -

- a Tank of 48in x 36in x 24in dimension, using 12mm glass.

- LR (about 100kg) & 0" for 6in DSB in the main tank.

- a simple sump with 4 vertical compartments.

- The cabinet, hood & the necessary pipings.

I have a rough idea of cost for skimmer, pumps and lightings from the various threads.

2) What is the best way to bring my marine fishes & some soft corals across from Malaysia? Will they be quarantined? I know I would be spoiled of choices in Singapore but wife and I have sentimental attachment to our fishies

3) Any friendly and reasonably priced LFS in Paya Lebar/Kembangan areas?

Thanks & appreciate your advice.

With the very reasonable price and wide variety of choices for chillers in Singapore, it would be a travesty if you settle for cooling fans instead of a chiller.

Take a look at the sponsors threads in SRC and you'll find everything you need to stock up on fishes, inverts and corals.
