  1. New tank arrived on Saturday. DT is 90x50x50cm. Will be a sps dominated tank.


    Tank Culture guys fixing up the tank, positioning, piping and glue work and cabinet door.7A13B8DA-FBE8-4654-91FD-590A85434155.jpeg.51364bf1291cbcdf517caf8a1a89ec1e.jpegDone in less than 2hrs.E7D10221-F9A6-4878-AFE0-DB16968512E7.jpeg.7bb18262d2cd801f1f84206e2802ac2b.jpegNext is water test although tank maker assure it oredi been done in their workshop. Just a double assurance.39C735AD-57D0-48F8-A689-A98AD449FFD9.jpeg.a49ac53296d71c9151bdcc46617c56ef.jpeg

    In case u guys are wondering, the small tank beside will be my MP (Multi-Purpose) tank. Probably keeping some of my sps frags and some lps and can be double as a qt tank for my fishes but doubt it will serve much of that function as it is sharing same sump.

    Nice and open rock work!  It will look great once covered by corals! 

    I can't agree with you more! It's a hobby and the enjoyment part is so important. If hobby becomes a source of stress on a daily basis,  then it's really not healthy. 

     

    Look forward to your new updates! 

    Thanks bro. Will update as I progress with the build.

  3. Here’s the start of another new journey and also another new tank thread to keep track of my progress. The allure of the beauty of this hobby is just too great to resist. This is probably the third decent tank build I going to do after 14years in this hobby. My last tank wasn’t that great and encounter quite a lot of challenging problems (tank crashes 3x). The last crash was the last straw I decide to throw in the towel and decom. 
    For this new tank, I decided I want my tank thread to be more fun and less serious/stressful (haha) to look at rather than write about the technical aspects, the new latest gadgets in the market I should be using, how to maintain their parameters... etc etc etc.

    More relax and on a lighter note to enjoy this hobby. People should learn to relax and luv this hobby than to stress abt stuff such as why my KH so high, is my tank going to crash the next day?? Chasing numbers daily and worry abt tank leaking?? But that’s reality in general that we worry abt so much.

    That said, knowledge on Reefing is not build on one day. So take ur time, learn and enjoy this hobby and do ur due diligence and research.

    Nothing to show for now, except a sneak peak of my new scape. New tank not here yet...eagerly anticipating its arrival.

    Will share more photos of my tank build and plans along the way. Hope u guys enjoy this hobby as much as I do. Cheers!!

RIP.

  5. Just Decom my tank hence giving away some unwanted biomedia. They are left out to dry in my toilet though. Anyone keen can pm me and collect by today or tomorrow preferably. If no takers I will dispose by tomorrow evening and it’s no April’s fool joke. Heheheh.image.jpg.7b19ea683d204d8de7a040eba1766574.jpgone big marinepure block and one big plastic bag of siporax >2kg.

    EB91DB37-0CDB-4ED8-BBB2-DDA8FEC9FF88.pngTank was custom made oct 2015. Front glass crystal glass only. 12mm thick for display, sump glass is 8mm. As it’s old tank and display has scratches here and there, not for the fussy buyers definitely. Letting go cheap for any interested party, tank, sump and cabinet as shown in my pictures, not including equipments. $200 for everything, ie. display tank, sump and cabinet including the side cabinet which used to house the chiller compressor. Location in woodlands. Pls pm me if keen.

    Pls read carefully and I will not respond to rhetorical questions eg how much for the lights? Pls arrange own mover at ur own cost. Tank has no leaks and will be at the buyer’s liability to conduct his own leak test as it is a old tank. If no takers, will scrap it during new tank arrival. Thanks for reading.
