He will suffer first....when he does his rockscape and mixing the salt mix...then he will enjoy going to LFS to stock up his tank....then he will suffer again when he seees how much he is spending on livestocks and corals... :eyebrow:

I used to spend a couple of dollars to run a long long hose direct to my tank.

Else back will break carrying so many pails of water.

I guess you will be sleeping late tonight!

Hey Chris, you will be adding live sand right? Pls add those last after you are done with your scaping.

Cause they are very murky. Once you add it, it takes a few hours to clear and you cannot see a damn thing in the tank.

Remember hor.....

like that you also can guess?

I like the neatness too.

just that will salt spray get to the power plugs?

remember to rust protect your hinges and the screws too.

nice setup! :)

better run the hose tmr, 5ft tank, no joke to carry pails! and add prime too to get rid of the chloramines n other stuff. Busy day for you tmr bro!

And it will be good to plan your rockwork on dry surface first and transfer...

ya lo.. intending to scape while its dry.. that's lots easier this way..

Hahaha, somethings got trademarks one lah bro. It's like the artist's classic strokes on his paintings. Hard to miss, never able to forget.

AM's tank setups are professionally done! Chio man is all I can say! :D

Keep it going bro. Peihao! :D
