SRC Member jyoon Posted April 7, 2010 SRC Member Share Posted April 7, 2010 Hi Steve Notice all your power sockets are just above your sump. This could be dangerous and salt spray can be very corrosive and in no time there might be electrical short circuit within the power block. I had my tank burnt down in 2006 making this mistake (former tank been run from 1995). Very costly experience beside need to clean up the floor as it flood my hall. Here's what I do to my tank now (setup since 2007):- 1. Place the power block as far as possible from the sump. 2. All pumps cables, skimmer cables...etc are run into cable tubes if possible. 3. Regular maintenance on the equipment include the power block by cleaning them with dry cloth. Just my 2 cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ibanez Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 bro who is your tank maker? The piping work in your main tank is a bit unusual. the valve is pretty obvious.

stevenkoh08 Posted April 8, 2010 Author Share Posted April 8, 2010 hi bro the scrubber box up is black just that the lighting casing is sliver in color Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenkoh08 Posted April 8, 2010 Author Share Posted April 8, 2010 oh ya as for the piping valve is that i fix it myself as u can see there's three outlet point and for y i place it this way is cause of lesser distance for higher flow hope this answer ur question Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reef999 Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 it a 6 mm glass should be ha ha Bro, 6mm glass thickness looks too thin for your sump. But you got quite a number of baffle so hope can "tahan" a bit. Any pictures of your scrubber internal view? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member LaW Posted April 10, 2010 SRC Member Share Posted April 10, 2010 hi steven, i find that you will need larger rocks for that kind of tank size. what do you think? Quote If a man could beat his own fantasy. Then to only breed in captivity. Then its pointless. Genesis 1:20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day. || Tank: 78" x 30" x 30" || Sump: 48" x 22" x 20" || Lights: PowerModule 10 X 80W|| Returns: 2 x HF32 || || Skimmer: BubbleKing Supermarin 300 || Wavemaker: 3 x 6100 & 1 x 6200, 2 x Wavebox 6212, WavySea || || FR: 2 x FR150 || NR: Sulphur Denitrator || CR: RM Custom Made 8" || KR: Deltec KM500 || TopUp: Tunze Osmolator 3155 || || UV: Coralife 12X 36W || Ozonizer: Sanders C200|| Controller: GHL Profilux Plus II Ex || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my 2 cents. so far after think and see around no other place can place the power block so what i do is to install a fan to on when the cabinet is in the warm period so like this it'll prevent any evaporation to go the the power or metal area i'll also do as what u said cleaning up and proper maintanace of the equipment is important Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenkoh08 Posted April 10, 2010 Author Share Posted April 10, 2010 now my next project will be DIY a wavebox with a Resun DC pump 1.) It'll have the timer for interval on off by speed control (How frequent of the wave) 2.) Have a min of 4 stage of flow rate ( To have a different weak to strong wave) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
