  1. Hi, can I check with you if it is possible to modify this skimmer to work outside the tank (not hang on, not inside a sump)? I was told by the lady at havelock that I can use gravity to have the water flow into the skimmer and use a pump to pump the water back into the tank.

  3. actually i don't quite understand abt things leaching out of the carbon when it's full. i understand that when things are full, they will just stop absorbing. how can the things that are already in leach out? if they leach out, does it means it's empty again????

    take for example, i pour water into a container, then it's full, the water will just overflow. how can the water which is already in the full container get out????

  4. hi hi, the max wattage should be 20watt since a 2.5watt hood can only take a 2feet FL tube.

    can get cheap at Nature i think, i long time never go there liao. last time the price of 2.5 feet with single PL tube and e-ballast should cost around $60.

  5. hi bluebeard,

    i found a eballast at that same shop in simlim .

    "clipsal eballast model fb601v20s for 58/65w lamp 0.29a 220v 50hz

    selling at $15"

    the owner dun even know its for pl or fl... just wondering u buy any eballast from that shop b4?

    its dirty cheap .. manz

    hi hi,

    i saw those before too, they very at the bottom right?

    they are very very cheap!!!

    it won't make a difference whether it's use for PL or FL, most important is the rating is correct. the brand is actually quite good, maybe they just clearing stock. i never buy those 55watt e-ballast is because so far i have never use 55watt PL tube before. one thing, so not many (maybe there is not) peole use 55watt FL, if there is one, it should be around 5-6 feet long.

    i never buy e-ballast from that shop before.
