  3. Hahah no thanks I want true percula clowns Sent from my POCOPHONE F1 using Tapatalk
  4. This is normal clown right? Ah Beng selling for 3 bucks Sent from my POCOPHONE F1 using Tapatalk
  5. Hi everyone, I'm looking to set up a marine tank. At least around 15 gallons but nothing bigger than a 2ft cube. Do contact me if you are looking to sell yours. Thanks. Sent from my POCOPHONE F1 using Tapatalk
  6. After some consideration, I think I may go up to a 2ft cube tank. Would ATS/refugium be more useful for such a tank? I think it would be around 60 gallon. Sent from my POCOPHONE F1 using Tapatalk
  7. I think I'd go for a sump because it seems better for maintenance and more room to put equipment. Just waiting for a good 2nd hand set to pop up! Sent from my POCOPHONE F1 using Tapatalk
  8. Thanks! I'll read up about the fail safes. Sent from my POCOPHONE F1 using Tapatalk
  9. Yup I'm open to second hand stuff. Should I be concerned with the type of overflow drainage system i.e. Herbie or bean animal? I read about drainage failure causing water to overflow or the drainage causing too much noise. If I buy the main tank and sump separately, is it easy to do the plumbing or is it safer to get someone to do it? Sent from my POCOPHONE F1 using Tapatalk
  10. Hahaha I am prepared for the cost but 1.2k for tank, sump, and cabinet doesn't seem very value for money. I am also looking to get second hand stuff since I'm just starting out. I think I want a sump since it'll be neater and maintenance would be easier in the long run. Sent from my POCOPHONE F1 using Tapatalk
  11. Whoa the red sea reefer looks good but it is out of my budget. Yes I also read that ATS/refugium may not be necessary for smaller set ups. Probably won't be using them then. Sent from my POCOPHONE F1 using Tapatalk
  12. I think I'm leaning towards getting a new tank instead of re-using my current tank. Is it possible to find ready-made tanks (especially a 60x30x36cm one) with overflow and sump system at LFS? Or do I need to custom make one? What should I aim for to be in my sump? I would like the sump to help my water parameters stay stable and reduce maintenance. I guess that means I need a skimmer and auto topoff as a minimum. How about algar turf scrubber? Sent from my POCOPHONE F1 using Tapatalk
  13. Since it's only a 60 litre tank, can I make do with 8mm? Sent from my POCOPHONE F1 using Tapatalk
  14. Hi everyone, After more than a year, I still haven't set up my reef tank. Got busy and also the saltwater stuff got a bit too intimidating. Now I'm revisiting the topic because I think I'm ready to move on from freshwater. I have some questions. I currently have a 60x30x36 (6mm thickness) planted freshwater tank with a canister filter. I'm looking to use the same tank together with a small sump (maybe 45cm?). I'll need to find someone to help me drill drainage holes. Is it better instead to start with a whole new tank instead? If so, then I'd go for a 60x30x36 but 8mm thickness tank. I need it to be the same dimensions because I want to use my existing cabinet. As for plumbing, should I be looking to do a herbie or bean animal drainage? Or is it too complex and require too much space for a 2ft tank? I'm actually leaning towards doing a bean animal drainage (since is most quiet and safe). And how should I design the sump? From what I've read, I think I'll be using a skimmer, an auto top off, and ideally a refugium. Is it possible to put all these in a 45cm sump? Thanks! Sent from my POCOPHONE F1 using Tapatalk
