Gorgeous mesoleucos butterfly, from the pic looks like a nice size too. Elongatus is a rare anthias from japan. Taiwan may be catching these anthias but they dun sell cos most likely those caught

Whilst tearing down my old tank, have been planning my new tank with reddevils. The initial thought was to take a short break from chionging LFS, reefing etc. The break will only last 2 months sadly,

*claps* I'm going to copy your sump setup le. Haha.

Btw, I'm sure you provided space for CR and other toys yah? With 1.5hp, doubt u need much top up also.

CR and FR can be placed outsump in my empty 3.5x3.5 feet cabinet :P my tank cabinet is as big as the tank and it's currently not housing anything since i have an external sump.

Very cool design... I also dun have view to the compartment where the livestock can be place.. LOL..

yes the planning stages for the sump took dam long. But had help with reddevils and vincent.

I thought vincent was using this design for most of his tank project..

i didnt know that initially lol. at first i plan with reddevils very long how to do something like that. then vincent help with the current design. that's why sump took so long haha

infact the design is same as yours right? if i'm not wrong. just that my cabinet got the hole at the side to see.

Brown SPS > Kinder Surprise

White SPS = Kinder Surprise after expiry date

yup. chiller coil will be with return pump :) yes section 1 and 2 difficult to access, but with the flip open top, it's easy.

nice well planned sump.

yes. especially with the skimmer placed just infront of the overflow.

sure. after my exams which end next week friday ok? :) can come and watch my tank cycle

I love the idea of part 3 of your sump too! Jtb mine is alot smaller :paiseh:

Can see alot of thought put into your pet project. Keep the photos rolling! :cheers:

thanks boss. will do!

Love the sump design and open top cabinet.

thanks bro. the open top cabinet is very useful. my old tank used to give me alot of insecurities with the sump. I had many sleepless nights wondering if it will explode, crash, leak, etc. Finally the stress of worrying alone was enough to get me to decomm, not to mention if something really did happen. due to the extremely poor design plan, 16mm piping etc etc. that spurred me to do alot of planning. I had help from reddevils and i really could not have done it without him. i'm clueless when it comes to technical stuff. i'm more inclined towards living things..

and i have to thank vincent too. for agreeing to all my requests and for his excellent workman ship. really. workman ship is really really well done.

i can sleep with peace of mind now knowing that it's done properly with excellent service and workman ship, and not having to wake up in the middle of the night at the slightest noise which may have anything remotely related to an utter disaster in the living room.
