  1. usibg nano chiller? fit external would be a quick fix.
  2. Go online, get a heatsink, controller and the correct bulbs and you are good to go. remember to check polarity during soldering. Some brand do iffer solderless bulb but at a premium cost.
  3. you can diy with cree led or ither high spectrum led.led par38 effectively is similar, just that the Leds are all circuited together.
  4. The fans will cool down the leds once they get too hot.
  5. Bean animal seems to be real quiet on the overflow.

    Dr evil got the end cap also. plus the reflector. plus the ballast. Aquamarin seems to always run low on end cap. just my 2cent
  7. Bro, you dont need the valve. Just tie a knot on the rubber tubing and tighten as required. Use a clothe peg and clip it to the tank.
  8. Bro, If you need this kind of aluminium frame, can go to to hardware store along kelantan road / Jalan Berseh. They can cut to your measurement.
  9. Most RODI system runs the same way. brand wise most of them are the same. They are canister that allow water to flow through various pre-filter and membrane. What if I tell you I can DIY a set up exactly like crystal pro and its lower than the selling price of available models in market? Whats the diff between different brand then? THE USE OF MEMBRANE. @PowderTang You need to understand the various stages of a RODI unit first. Your existing crystal pro 3 can be turn into a RODI unit with the correct addition. Stage 1: 5 Micron sediment filter that filter out particles bigger than 5 micron. (i.e. acts exactly like the micron filter in your sump) Stage 2: Carbon block that de-chlorine the water and remove any organic compound (smell, contaminant and chemical etc) Stage 3: TFC membrane that removes many other contaminants and this is what restrict the water flow Stage 4: De-Ionization through resin. The only diff is the membranes and pre-filters used in each unit and their capacity. @PowderTang, if you want to add a RO membrane into your existing unit, you need to get this to house the above RO membrane. Cost just a few bucks if you know where to get. And than get this to hold the canister: Set up: So where can you buy all this? Our boleh neighbour have most of the things in their departmental store. The rest? Taobao lo. PS: I can fix up a unit for you at lower than retail price, with USA made membrane. PM to express your interest for a 4 stage unit. Pricing yet to be conclusive.
  10. Bro, I got test kit salifert and api and rodi unit zero ex4 for sale. Whatsapp me. 91862416. Got tunze 6065 x 2
  11. Bro, the RODI will justify the cost eventually over buying distilled water. If you looking for canister, i got 1 to let go, eheim but without quick connector. Need to upgrade the impeller though.
  12. Bro Seacucumber, you might be able to reflow the LED with soldering gun. https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=reflow+Odyssea+Evo+led
  13. Bro, have you thought of upgrading your tank anytime soon? If that thought ever come to your mind, I suggest to hold on first, if not buy liao after awhile need to buy new one again.
  14. Seems to have ease abit. But still monitoring. It's not copper base or melatine green
  15. I got all of the above, what rating pump and wavemaker you looking for. Which test kit you want? Refractor meter not selling though.
  16. I just checked with them this evening. They don't have lei. Ended up diy. With 2 trickle case
  17. Bro, if you confirmed on the tank size and that if fits into your reno, why not only have the tank make, and with heavy duty stand. After that, have the reno id to work around it for the exterior including top cabinet? In this case, if the carpentry work not done well, can have the contractor come over and touch up together with the rest, no need to fix seperate appointment. I think its easier to work around like this. Renovating already so many items to coordinate, just treat this as 1 item more and get the items separately. Just like reno ID like to lump everything together and mark up than overall mark up again. So even give you alot of discount, but in the end still the earning, if no discount than even more YAM GONG. For lighting, i just talked to Dr Evil the week before and he might have some refurbished razor laying around for a super good price, see he can give warranty anot. You can go see his tank, also similar only exterior (front facing,and wooden frame) is done up, behind all naked. Just my 2cents.
  18. i got a quarantine acrylic box that is only big enough for my training mandarin. Just went to East ocean and they dont carry and fish trap also. Haiz. Went to buy their EIHO ICH-EX and try. Non-copper based and was told 1 application is enough too treat the fish. $18 per bottle. Seems like they are the only 1 carrying this product. Maybe i go and get a piece of glass and DIY to replicate the aqua medic fish trap. Not sure in time anot, cos my tang now abit too much white spot. still eating and swimming actively though.
  19. Hi all, any kind soul to borrow fish trap to catch 5" power brown and 4" blue lip? I trying to catch them for couple of days in a 5 feet. and the fish seems to be tricking me. Swim near the net and when i try to fish it it to turbo off....wah biang.. Need to put them into hospital as it seems like they are developing ich. Got the blue lip qt for 6 weeks le. put in suddenly last than 1 week my brown tang go rub rock. Otherwise, if you all know how much a aqua medic fish trap cost would be great. I saw the review online seems quite positive and user friendly. Thanks
  20. I just went to Ah Beng over the weekend and saw them having those as well...
  21. bro James72, dont worry, the young boss very friendly one. If you see the old guy, he will charge, tried twice in the past for other items, never got a chance.... if you need help cutting the box, let me know, i can help cut la.
