just wondering what type of lighting will you use? with 4x4 coverage, u need lots of lightings....

if u looking for MH, u need 4 sets atleast....... :D with your water volume, u need the largest chiller in the market........

that will be another large investment.

Hi Dr. Evil , ;) ...... I thought of using the Giesemann which not only caught my attention but also the slim and decorative design. I managed to speak with the local distributor here and he's checking out the availability and stock for me. I never really knew they had a 400W bulb for such deep tanks :whistle which is impressive to say the least. ;) Although my tank is not really that deep but the width is wide. You're right that I might have to get double sets at least. As for the chiller , I know I have to get the largest and I thought of reef relief for starters. Any opinions on what I should get and what I should avoid by reefers out there? Would certainly welcome your advise :D

Does that mean that yr tank size is probably 1 of the biggest able 2 squeeze in2 an HDB flat (pre-assembled)?? Unless of course U get yr tank assembled in the flat itself ...

It just barely made it through my front doorway. ;) I originally wanted a height of 2 1/2 feet but it could not be done at seems. I also could have requested it to be made in my home but reaching down through a 2 1/2 feet would pose some difficulties. I don't know if any reefers here has the same size as mine. :D

      FOC Coral Bandid Shrimp

      Hi, I'd need to give away my CBS named Shadow. He's a decent sized guy, been with me for a few months, a darling of a shrimp. But he's started attacking my small fish, fish have gone missing through the months, few have died the past week. Unsure him or anything else. My current fish are all healthy. Free of charge. Just promise to take good care of him. Please quarantine him first, or put him in a fishless setup for a few weeks. Self collect at Indus road. Cheers.
