  1. Just keep the chiller as spare in case your current one is not working. 

    Else I think you might really need to lower down the price.

    FYI 2 of the sponsers here is selling at 889 rrp and giving additional 10 to 15% discount depending on how close you are with them. 1 shop at clementi is selling at low 700+ for brand new. 

  2. Selling the following items:

    1. Industrial 20 litre DI unit. Come with brand new 5 litre of nuclear grade resin (still sealed). 

    Original price at 215 selling at 165. 

    2. 2 boxes of 50lbs of BRS reefsaver rock. No leeching of PO4 and no hitchhikers. Safer than bleaching life rocks  

    They are less denser and much lighter than those branded dried rocks or live rocks thus you are getting out out of the 23kg box. After adding water it should be 38 to 40kg worth of rocks. Sufficient for a 322 tank.

    Original price at BRS is USD130 + USD120 shipping by forwarder. Selling at 230 a box of 22-23kg. 

    3. 2 x 322 freshwater tank. 8mm and no scratches. Buyer to arrange for mover. 2 tank for 50  

    4. Used aquabee 2000i for 80

    5. BNIB aquabee 2000i for 140

  3. Upzzz for the items above.

    BRS reefsaver rock sold but I have just received email from Vpost that my other 2 x 50lbs boxes were finally shipped after some custom issue. :chair:

    Rocks will arrive in Singapore around late next month. Total cost I have paid is USD130 + USD73 sea shipping per box (Around 280 to 290 total). FYI, they are much lighter than those branded rocks thus you are getting out of the 23kg box. After absorbing water they should be 38 to 40kg worth of rocks. More than sufficient for a 322 tank.

    Selling at SGD230 per box.

    If you connect directly from tap, assist the flow rate to about 1-2 drops per second. This is to allow longer contact between water and resin. It takes me 24hrs to get 40L water with 0 tds.

    Alternatively you can fill up a bucket with tap water and run a pump circulating the water through the di unit repeatedly until you get 0 tds.

    His is the industrial kind so 1 to 2 drops are too slow.

    Hi, thanks for replying. I actually bought it from another reefer (new, resin is still sealed). It is the industrial kind. 

    Yeah, I was thinking about the flow rate n maximum contact too, I run it quite slow actually, it took about 2.5 hours to fill the bath tub.  Got quite confused now on what to do, did I set up the catridge wrongly...? 

    Is the direction correct? Else I think it might still be too fast flow. Just use the circulating method as it will full utilise the resin. 

  6. What brand is your tank? If it's ADA then it's relatively safe but if its other brand, then it is usually not recommended to use 6mm for reef. Having said that, I have kept a 1.5ft 6mm reef tank for 2 years without issue in the past.

     

    - Canister and lily tube

    In US and Japan, there are many fantastic reef tank which use lily tube. It removed the need for overflow box but you would require additonal effort to soak them in vinegar to clear the aglae every few weeks. 

    Not recommended to use canister but it's better than those hang on filters. 

     

    - flow rate

    2 school of thoughts. One would recommend as much flow as possible using return pump (15 to x0 times). The other finds that the flow can be compensated by using wavemaker. It's really up to you and whixh side you believe in. 

     

    - sand

    Doesn't really matter. Live sand is more expensive and make cycling slightly faster but is more expensive. 

     

    - live rock

    Just get live rocks. Resin rocks could leech chemical in long run and ceramic rocks are super expensive. 

     

    - Fishes

    Stick to a pair of clown and nano fishes. Definately no tang as it is quite cruel to them for squeezing them into such small tank. Imagine staying in a 3 room flat w/o going out for life. Least aggressive fish to be intro first. 

     

    - LPS

    Mushroom. 30 degree is a but too high for the rest. Try using a fan and you can have more options. 

     

    - Wavemaker

    Jebao for the value. Else tunze nano or mp10. Price is from low to high. 

     

    - LED

    Get a 2nd hand AI or Maxspect. around the same price but 1 is from usa and 1 is from China. 

     

    Lastly, do yourself a favor and get a deltec mce300, mce500 or mce600 hang on skimmer. Saw a few mce600 in the marketplace recently. This is more effective than the canister.

    My 2 cent 

  7. Got some items in anticipation to restart a reef tank after getting my new place.

    However, due to the my new born baby I have to stay with my in laws for another year thus selling the below brand new item

    1. Industrial 20 litre DI unit. Come with brand new 5 litre of nuclear grade resin (still sealed). 

    Original price at 215 selling at 165. 

    2. 50lbs of BRS reefsaver rock. No leeching of PO4 and no hitchhikers.

    They are much lighter than those branded rocks thus you are getting out out of the 23kg box. After adding water it should be 38 to 40kg worth of rocks. Sufficient for a 322 tank.

    Original price at USD130 + USD120 shipping. Selling at SGD300.

  8. I take back my words that load rating is low. In fact it is higher than HDB rating of 1.5kN/m2. 

    The load rating is actually for the whole area. So if your balcony is 5m2, then you can place up to 15kN distributed evening around your balcony.

    My condo management got back to my enquiry on the load rating of my balcony...i almost fainted...3kN/m2. Which mean on a 3x2ft foot print, i can only put 170kg. The tank, water, structure and rock will weigh ~650kg.
    Does these load rating ever stopped anyone from putting your aquarium or what countermeasures can be taken.
    If i put a 2sqm plate on the floor, then the tank on it, the weight will be distributed but practically?


    Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

    The loading rating seems a bit low. So does that mean that it is not safe for an adult human to stand on the balcony. Average 70 to 80kg on a 1x1ft print.
