My friend helping up to fix up the "special DB" point which he added in a 20A DP type B mcb with a 0.03A ELCB follow by 3 nos 15A SP mcb. 1 circuit supply 2 nos. 2x13A SSO.

Hopefully, this will help to prevent triping the whole house if one of the equipment short circuit and only that piece of equipment will be trip.

completed at last, but it took us half a day after all the drilling and wiring work..

woa damn steady but by adding more would it affect anything?? :thanks:

Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever.

No lah... The safety setup is just for "prevention measure" as prevention is always better if something fail .. Also the setup look neater i think .

bro, how much does it cost to ask someone to set-up your type of electrical supply.... very safe and neat. thks

Not too sure how must it will charge for someone to do this, cos this is done by my friend .. i just treat him a kopi and dinner after the work :pinch:

Wanted to have this inside the tank cabinet initially, but due to the risk of water and accessibility , maybe safer and better to place it outside.

the one with the most effective and least energy consumption pump of course !

Red dragon royal exclusive that is?? :eyebrow:

1ft cube with IOS [the low tech tank]

1. JBJ C-breeze to keep temp hovering around 27-28'C

2. LED clip on - 120 bulbs

-skimmer-less-

My 3 humble equipments that keeps my tank running... [DRIED OUT]

1. The RSM itself of course 2.My NEW Deltec MCE-300 Skimmer 3. My trusty Arctica Chiller

Tank parameters:

Temperature maintained at 25.3'C to 24.7'C

No3: 10ppm(b4 the use of the deltec skimmer)

No3: 5ppm (after use of the skimmer)

Others? too lazy to measure...LOL

aquabee pumps arent good enough for main return nowadays,

they fail easily and too much headloss

I agree with your RD, aquabee tend to loss it's effectiveness faster as compare to Ehiem esp those bigger series.

Ehiem has a more better head flow and is more trustable in the long run ,although it does consume a little higher watt than a AB..

Hello Bro,

How much did you pay for the whole setup?

Do you mind giving me the breakdown and perhaps contact number of your tank maker?

Thanks!

Happy Reefing,

Marc J.

Hi Marc,

I prefer to do most of the setup myself, so i only ask the maker to make the tank and cabinet .. Have PM you the ctc.

Cheers

So i guess its worth it to go the extra mile :eyebrow:

Decided to created a "special compartment " to store my electrical plug and controller inside the tank cabinet itself.. so i D.I.Yed a "special compartment between the two stand of the tank... Bought some can of spray paint and started my D.I.Y :whistle

more photos of the pipping work done today... I have no choice but to have an elbow from the main pump instead of a direct upward flow , lossing some of the flow from the pump :pinch: .. Due to the limitation of the width of the cabinet size which i have which is only 2ft and also the two return pipe make it even harder ...
