  2. This is further proofs that Reefs destruction are not all by hobbyists but also those that condemned us and organize trips to the reefs to watch them.
  3. Claims that "Sea Walking" ventures are destroying the Coral Reefs off Phuket has turned to deaf ears even after proofs has been submitted to the authorities. Source: - http://phuketwan.com/tourism/phuket-region-coral-reefs-wont-saved-idle-island-police-17789/
  4. Biologists at Hanalei has discovered a disease that is spreading rapidly at more than 60 locations in the North Shore of Kauais. Due to speed and persistence of the disease and the lack of funding in studying them, they biologists and named it Coral Aids.

  5. Be it corner back or side overflow, the key to a noise-less overflow is the design. Most of us use Durso pipes and tune the durso to minimize splashing. Another bro - reefer guy uses maggie muffler - http://www.aquacave.com/Maggie-Muffler-Quiet-Overflow-Box-Standpipe-Cap-Fits-any-15-Standpipe-P2818.aspx Hope that helps.
  6. True, basically Aquarama is still a Trade Show thus their focus is not on Hobbyists.
  7. You also need to dip your zoanthid rocks as they will be hiding among them. Truly a pest that we try not to have in our tank. Wrasses are a form of control but will not eliminate them totally. Good luck.
  8. Larry, how's the Abyss? Heard it's lifetime warranty. Unfortunately too ex for me to consider.
  9. For those seeking DC or low wattage pump, there are many available now but my suggestion is to get a spare pump on stand by. Don't be like me, I lost a frag of hoeksemai after my DC pump suddenly stopped and I can't get replacement in time.
  10. Those who have participated previously can attest, you will be going against commercial players during the competition. MASS have tried to suggest to them to separate hobbyists from commercial participants but was told not viable.
  11. If your flat already comes with an aircon ledge, you don't need a permit. If you flat does not comes with an ledge and you need to add an additional bracket to hold your compressor, your air-con contractor can do the necessary documentation.
  12. Don't need HDB license to install aircon unit. Unless you intend to hack down the entire wall or you intend to site your compresssor away from your designated aircon latch.
  13. That's where I placed mine, I too don't like the compressor next to my tank - the heat is terrible and will reduce the efficiency too. That's why I needed a aircon contractor to help me install after I bought all parts.
  14. Yo, how are you? Yes, your SPS is light shocked, this is common if they are exposed to LED for the 1st time. I am using LED too and I usually start my coral slightly lower and move them up. If I have to placed them high up from the start, I will reduce the light intensity by 50%. Hope that helps.
  15. Cuz, it is currently not possible to control a Inverter unit using a external compressor and contactor (relay switch). As for the other option, it is also not possible, but I cannot remember the reasons liao.
  16. Guys, its now available in Singapore. Anyone review locally? http://freshnmarine.com.sg/estore/product_info.php?products_id=4007
  17. You asked for advises and we have given our 2 cents, don't think its fair to asked us to comment on other brand just because you receive some "phantom" advises. Do some googling and make your own judgement. Cheers,
