My overflow box.....

Another view...top view of my sump...

Hi Reefers, Thought to show off my new DIY sump tank (a spare tank I have), 17" X 10" x 10" with a refugium. Fully commission and have passed Factory acceptance test with simulation of power cut off. Currently sump tank still running concurrently with a canister. Just bought some tonga to add to the right side of my main tank and is going to add another 2" of sand from Changi Beach. Comments?

Hi Matt06 and fellow reefers I have recently DIY a sump tank with a refugium. In it I have 4" of grade 0 & 1 sandbed. May I ask how do you grow micro algae? Are those the "grasses" grown on LR? What sort of things I should add into my refugium beside my DSB? Appreciate you guys advise....

Do you guys use this in a refugium??

Thanks....just got my MaxOnline 1500 unlimited access few days ago so itche hand want to try the speed of downloading big movies file.... Anymore beside Kazza & WinMX???

Hi Anybody can sent me some link from any site to download movie and MP3 stuff free? I really mean free!

hahahaha 800 &v 1000.....I thought mine is very exaggerated already.....I think $15+ is down to the drain.....

I am using Sera Ca tester and on 3 occasion I got 540, 480, 540mg/l !!!! Cannot be that high right??? So I think it is not accurate! What do you guys think? By the way....any recommendation? I presume the most expensive one must be the best! hahaha

Now I am really confused??!!! "water current is strong, the sweeping tentacles will be extended" "too fast the tentacles will retract itself..." "try changing the waterflow (direction/flow rate) ard the hammer." I probably have to conclude to have it at a low waterflow area??? Right???

I have a rotating power head now and it pointing toward the hammer but ...... Silver2578, does you hammer re-tract itself when you blow your water direction at it? How is it now? Still extending the tentacles to such length?

Hi Anybody encounter a hammer coral having its tentacles...or should I say the hammer head, sticking out to as long as 4 to 5 inches long....Seem like fishing something.. It has previous attached the hammer head to a mushroom causing it to melt away!!! Is there anything I should do? I have relocate my mushroom and buttons away from it....the nearest to it now is a jewel....sign! Its already just a 2 ft tank and now I have to create ample space for this hammer coral!!!

Wonder the corals like them?? Hahahahaha then can save some money and no need those stupid DT la....Marine Snow la....hahaha Pai say enough already hor Chew

A....why like that....pai say type into wrong place!! Again!! Agree with you...my 2 X 1.5 X 1 has cost me >1k !! and its only 3 month + since I started and its going to climb further with my introduction of sump tank and chiller.....but I must say....SONG AH!! really enjoying this hobby....haha

Agree!

hahaha semens hahahaha

Hi regular guy, Are you using a canister for your filtration? or a sump tank?

ya hor.....never think of that.....thanks for your idea..... Probably commissioning my sump tank tomorrow night!!! hehe will take some pic to post once its pass the FAT (factory acceptance test) hahaha Thanks for your advise!

Very Chiam......my turbo snail nobody want......guess have to throw into the canal behind my house this weekend.....Sayonara Turbo!

Anybody interested to adopt a turbo snail? Have been doing a lot of landscaping for me....Arrhhh!!! Plase call me at 97865606....I stay at Pasir Ris...

Marine Snow!? same same lor....Planktonic food for filter feeding marine invertebrates...I happen to be using.....not bad I should say....my corals are doing pretty fine. Ingredients:Deionized water, phytoplankton (Nannpchloropsos, Tetraselmis, Isochrysis, Spirulina, Schyzochitrium), seaweed meal, zooplankton, fish oil and citric acid......copying from the bottle....hehe

I saw Atman Chiller in Jakarta also.....I think is a 1/2 hp and is cheaper than that!! I nearly bye but was thinking the warranty and resale value! Sunray, may I ask how long is the warranty period when you bought it initially?? Is it electricity efficient?? Looking for my advise and experience with Atman before I get one in Indonesia.

anyone have such experiences and wouldnt mind sharing?? Thanks

Hi everybody I just notice there is a lot of fine thin thread, slimmy slimmy one....flying around my tank....swept by my powerhead and filter inflow current! A lot I must say! I manage to pick a couple up and it looks like it was puke out by my tube anemone previously. (pass away) Currently I still have one tube anemone. Any advise? Are they harmful? Must I net them out?
