  1. i think if the water is "processed" by the filters, skimmer etc, it should go to sump n pump back to the display tank. If it is unprocessed, then it should go to refugium for the plants to do nutrient exportation. As I have 2 down pipes and 2 sections of my sump for a skimmer zone and refugium zone, I have water from display tank to each of these zone to be processed n back up to display tank.
  2. There's only a cable coming out from the ato controller rite? No power supply. Local 230vac unit is just a 2 pin plug wire from ato controller. If tats the case, just plug in your ac to ac converter and select the 230vac to 110vac. It is best to use a multimeter and probe the voltage of the 2 pins and make sure it's 110vac before u plug in yr ato.
  3. look at the power supply u currently have. Is there any printings such as input volt and output volt? The transformer pic u have seems to have 2 modes u can choose. So u need to have input 230vac and output 110vac. And yr ato's power supply can connect to it. How's yr ato looks like?
  4. I know Home fix got sell the transformer. But the ato should be dc voltage. So once u know the dc specs, u can use a local 230vac transformer and modified the wiring.
  5. I thought heat will just kill the led. So need to self diy water cooled heatsink of led just like the CPU processor? So need to change led every few years liao ah. More ex than mh bulb le.
  6. Hi, u should try toh guan. Know the ying kwang plastics? Next to it is a shop selling all the valves.
  7. Normally when u buy a skimmer, it comes with a pump. So u would use its pump for better efficiency. If u are to ditch its matching pump and use a higher rated pump and do a tee off with a ball valve at the input of a skimmer u can try experimenting it. But if yr skimmer original pump is needle wheel and u want to use a normal water pump. U will need to do some experiment. When u want to servixe yr skimmer, u shut off the ball valve to skimmer, this also stops flow to chiller and all yr water goes to display tank unchilled. I feel it's not worth the trouble as new skimmers now come with efficient dc pumps.
  8. the flow into chiller if too fast, water can't be chilled down properly. U have chiller running all the time.
  9. comparing their 2 sites, lck is no man's land. At least pasir ris is walkable. Hope they move somewhere around farmart area.
  10. I prefer hot toys that have a hot body. ... Not joking. I collect old sg money though. My brother collects them with boxes still intact though. But it needs to be very unique to command a high value.
  11. If all of them use Cree led but performance differ greatly then something fishy. This is sibey sian news.
  12. Just read in RC. Someone pointed out a link. http://hennings-miniriff.jimdo.com/vortrag-sindelfingen-2013/messungen/verluste-von-led-modulen/ Ophek Atlantik loses 80% in 8mths!?! Led may last but not the spectrum n par. Not sure how accurate are these studies and do the corals response negatively to this. So planning to monitor the kessils based on the response of the corals.
  13. if I'm not wrong, the clam in odd position. The clam will have difficulties closing /opening. The base of the clam too far from any structures to hold onto.
  14.

  15. Just went to ah Beng at lck. ... Was told he dun wan sell already. Move back to pasir ris.
  16. left out something. Near view such as 5cm just in front no issue. Far view maybe abt 1.5 ft max?
  17. bring yr bulb to ikea to test out. But I think the bulb must be dim able first. I saw at rapid led, they differentiate between dimmable n non dimmable.
  18. Found this on reef central. Topic regarding people chasing after the test kits results. http://www.reefsmagazine.com/forum/reefs-magazine/159813-skeptical-reefkeeping-ix-test-kits-chasing-numbers-phosphate.html
  19. The 1st video above is kessil a360we with 2x rapid led par38 bulbs. This video below are only kessil only. http://youtu.be/aaMVIRJYmDA
  20. This is the video of the kessil glitters. http://youtu.be/8xLYfPztl3E
  21. awesome light but ugly tank. Still battling green bubble algae so I turn down the intensity of my radion light to slow down the growth and propagation. Some corals start dying. Though they say the light can cover 24x24, I find it dimmer as compared to my radion gen 1. If u read from the RC forum, the par value of this light is low, but coral response is good. Contemplating to get a 2nd unit.
  22. $590. I think slightly more than a360w? I dun know price for a360w.
  23. I got my e series from ecocityhydrophonics. I got mine delivered last nite. You may call Alfred to place an order.
