Where did u hide yr chiller? Cant seems to see it!

I run the piping all the way to the window side for the chiller so you don't see the chiller in the cabinet.

Can't wait too long due to my existing corals sitting in my rockless and sandless tank for 3 weeks.

Sweet setup Dersuz! Curious, what wood did you use for the base/frame to support the weight of your tank (plus water)?

[dersuz]

2"x1" solid wood. The weight is actual spread throughout the cabinet cause existing horizontal plank(just above the sump area) is supported by the entire cabinet and its also mounted against the wall on the right side, and the door frame support on the left side. Kind of complicated.

Workmanship is very important inorder to balance the total weight.

[Cookiemunster]

Well done bro. Very nice setup and workmanship. Must pop by to see up close again.

Keep in touch.

Cheers

[terryansimon]

can I come and grace your tank as well? I promise to bring my own bib to wipe up my own saliva. (=

[seahorse2]

My new intake - Look who coming...

[dersuz]

Regal angel from red sea, bought from CF yesterday. A very outstanding body colour and already feeding on pellet food.

Sorry for the poor photo, think is time for me to upgrade my digi cam.

[dersuz]

Anyother intake - Moorish Idol.

Sorry, just can't resist the temptation. Hope they will start eating.

[dersuz]

2 Moorish Idols and a banner fish.
