[WTS: 2ft Atman MH model MG600]

it can be hang on the 2 hooks..

me currently using this set too

[cannister for SPS]

correction(more politically correct saying)...............

SPS should be avoided by newbie or any reefers who are lacking in the knowledge in the husbandry of the demanding coral.

It should be avoided if the tank and water parameter is not stable enough.........

willing to ask and find out more is already a good start towards keeping SPS

thanks for the advice guys...

[cannister for SPS]

so i think the answer is getting a sump is better....

well going to do so..then.......

[cannister to replace sump?]

yup...since u haven't start & got the budget, better get a proper setup wif sump.

For long term, sump is always the best..

thanks guys for the advice.....

[cannister for SPS]

8 mths??? he must be joking!!! more like once fortnightly or at least once a month.

thanks lightings..

i think the best solution is REDO the tank my way...

i mean the normal way you guys did...

not any extra-ODDdinary way

[cannister to replace sump?]

actually redoing a tank may be cheaper...

some professional help my dad engage recommend me to get 2 cannister

and also 2 skimmers if i don want to redo tank..

but getting a extra cannister and skimmer cost more than the setup

[cannister to replace sump?]

i want to setup a RIGHT tank..

so in the future i can do whatever setup i want...

now to have constraints here and there..

maybe i can just replace my tank..get a new one with proper sump

and can have a ref..

more ideal...

do u guys agreed with redoing the tank..

or spending $$$ on cannister..

both use $$ too

[cannister for SPS]

someone recommend me to use 2 cannister and also 2 skimmers..

he also tell me that cannister need to maintance like every 8 mths..

so cannister just clean every 8 mths to 1 yr can liao??

look risky to me

[cannister for SPS]

well.. due to a poor setup...

i don think i can use sump

btw..me still a newbie.

but just wondering if cannister can use for sps tank?

[cannister to replace sump?]

R u already using sump thinking of converting to cannister?

nope..

just my setup dosent allow sump

[cannister for SPS]

the tank is around 3 ft * 3 ft * 2.6 ft

[cannister for SPS]

Is it possible to use cannister for SPS

[cannister to replace sump?]

well what kind of cannister to use...

any good cannister to recommend....

[cannister to replace sump?]

someone recommend me to use cannister to replace sump tank?

may i know what are the pros and cons???

my tank is around 3ft*3ft*2.6

[newbie tank]

  U mean? Drain from the lowest level?

i mean i use the L bow and other PVC pipes to construct the overflow.

and the pipe will run across the tank (under the DSB ) to the left of the tank, then join with a vertical pipe as the overflow.

please refer to the picture..

the black area refer to the L bow and the pink area represent pipes under the DSB and the blue dot refer to the vertical pipe that is link from the pipes (pink) to the surface of the water as overflow.

....

sorry for my bad phrasing..

any disadvantage for this setup

[newbie tank]

i have a question.

can i use a L Bow and run a pvc pipe under the sand bed (3 inch) across the tank?

will anything bad befall on this setup

[newbie tank]

hook up overflow as in I-box?

can consider that...

hope my wife allows as the overflow box will be seen in her piano room...

[Max tempreture sps can take??]

so if we go beyond the 690 walts, we need a relay for that?

[Max tempreture sps can take??]

I'm using it to run 2 x 150w MH only so it is enough for me.

so u mean if we just more than your current voltage need to use amp?

what is the highest amt of voltage for the fox controller (3AMP) which does not require relay?

me from multimedia in poly not from ENginn or electronics

[newbie tank]

well...

anymore advises and correction welcome...

except for change of tank:(

[newbie tank]

juz adding to marcvelous comments, with the roman water columns without overflow box, it's gonna provide u with superb sound effects 24/7. not trying to discourage u, but juz stating what problems u might be facing in future.

i am aware of this..

however my co partner assure me that this going to be okay..

there is still spaces between the wall and the tank.

we might do a hook up overflow...

.* any disadvantage of a hook-up.

[newbie tank]

Err.... How are you going to scape the LRs. Climb into the tank?

well..i can remove the lighting.

it just hook onto a fixture attached to the wall.

[newbie tank]
