Yup Jacky you are right about the noise reduction. Only thing is that the silence is canceled out by my use of filter sock, so there's no sponge or wool to reduce the sound when it hits the sump haha.

Siang, Dr Evil dropped by my place last night with the BM skimmer... we opened up the carton together and admired the skimmer until we found the body cracked from shipping -_- . I'll get a replacement in a few days.

And yah, hahaha my scape always very skinny with minimal rocks one...

your rockscape is Zen style...

nice of dr evil to come by yr place to help u install....i will be ordering BM from him...model NAC66 running on 2 pumps...

but i really like ur set up. wahla wahla

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.

Did a rescape yesterday, as always it is an hour or two arranging the rocks and many hours more cleaning up :blink:

First, pics of the Bubble Magus cone skimmer which was delivered by Kevin last Saturday!

Still a lot of micro bubbles right now, hopefully they will disappear after the skimmer breaks in. Second last pic shows skimmate 10 hours after switching on.

Overall, the skimmer is very well built and solid. The subtle cosmetic finishing like notches and numbers for tuning the water level, rubber seal at the neck of the collection cup and the embossed logo on the cover really leaves a very good impression. Performance wise, will have to wait for it to actually pull skimmate before I pass judgement.

Video of the skimmer in operation, for those of you with bubble fetish (Sorry for low quality of the vid. I shot in HD, but only have Windows Movie Maker in the office computer)... Skip to the 45 second mark to see the amount of micro bubbles in the sump:

Any comments on the scape? I love the large flat live rock (14"!!!), I can't think of any other way to use it. Quite cool as a "shelf" for my frags as it is right now lol.

did u place yr skimmer with the return pump?

The return pump is in a different compartment, on the right. The skimmer is in the same compartment as the chiller pump (cold water goes to last compartment). Any problems that might arise from that? Seems okay to me so far.

Always better to get stable fishes from reefers. I have no regret getting mine from Norman.

The FTS looks great. Very nice!

Coralline algae lah! noob :eyebrow:

Hahaha yah, that's the <2" inch YT I bought from SL after we had chicken rice that day. Cedric kept poisoning me with the benefits of keeping a small YT.... eat algae lah, cute lah, colour very bright la, eyes very nice lah... and I caved <_<

Why does it still look so small.. LOL...

The scaping is very minimalist...

What looks small? Anyway I'm not very happy with the scape yet, the large rock protrudes too much to the front, and the bottom half is now very dark when I take photos LOL! I think I will end up like Jacky, do 10 rescapes a year :eyebrow:
