Another "Sea Drogan Found in JB Malaysia?".....

Another "Strange fishes after Tsunami"..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vX90r12ANjY&feature=related

Another "Prehistoric shark"..... Rare Dragon/Shark Found In Japan

Also "Prehistoric shark".....

if accidently stir up any media/sand/residual from Sump will add unnecessary shock to your tank... Cheers...

Law.. all the best.. enjoy your trip..... Cheers....

Should be "Green Pocillopora"... Cheers...

Thanks...

Both Pinnacle and Pacific Reef at Pasir Ris Farmway2... Pinnacle is the one turn to the left after T junction from UMC.. (I think formerly called pacific marine, if not mistaken....).. Ya, should be Desmond shop... Pacific Reef.. is located at Plot32... also called "Ah Beng"..... Cheers and Happy Reefing....

Thanks..

Hi, Bro Fuel... Is it DIY or commercial Chiller? Probably shows how the DIY coated copper coil cooling setup for your tank? Any idea what kind of coating?... copper not exposed to water? means protected by coating or off water? I trust your setup... I learn lots from your thread Pls advice ya... Thanks.. But personally I dun suggested uses them as we know their weakness... Pls find some info I searh from web http://www.peteducation.com/article.cfm?c=16+2148&aid=2910 Some chiller used Teflon-coated copper.. which suggested routine Visual Inspection required: In the better models of chillers, the heat exchanger and compressor are held rigidly together, NOT with a flexible connection. The two metals most commonly used in the heat exchanger are titanium, and Teflon-coated copper. Titanium is expensive and is not a good conductor of heat, however, it is impervious to the saltwater that can corrode many other types of metal. When using coated copper, routinely perform a visual inspection of the unit. Any crack in the coating can expose the copper to the saltwater and result in increased copper levels in the water, with possible toxicity and death of the inhabitants. http://aquafind.com/articles/marine.php One of the statement The chiller, which is used for commercial purpose should not be used as it may contain copper and, kill all your fish anytime. http://www.refrigeration-engineer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4273 Some reefer suggested: If it is marine, then you will not be able to use copper or aluminium in direct contact with the aquarium water, as it dissolves into the water and will kill the fish. I would be equally careful with freshwater as well. Cheers and Happy Reefing...

Ya, beside rics.. also see lots of normal green paly at Iwarna and AhBeng today... Blue and Red Mushroom at pinacle...

Thanks bro Sunny for the update.... Any idea how much is the Lineatus in your pics cost? swee... Any more left? :b.... Thanks...

try this... I can't find it locally... but can order from marinedepot online.... or any bros can suggest why to get them locally? cheers... I like the design concept and ergonomic. very slim..... http://www.magfloat.net/telas/pagina.php?id=26 Below pics extract from ReefKeeping Magazine.... Cheers and Happer Reefing....

I think the cons by doing this... the sponge on magnet with out shape easier and getting thinner faster in long run... and eventually scratching glass surface as well.... I think also losing your cleaning power by inducing slip effect... Cheers and Happy Reefing....

Pls find info from Skimmer 101 and Wiki.... beckett skimmer works similar to a downdraft skimmer except it uses a beckett pond injector and a pressure rated pump to make a great deal of foam. http://www.hawkfish.org/snailman/skimmer101.htm Beckett skimmer The Beckett skimmer has some similarities to the downdraft skimmer but introduced a foam nozzle to produce the flow of air bubbles. The name Beckett comes from the patented foam nozzle developed and sold by the Beckett Corporation (United States), although similar foam nozzle designs are sold by other companies outside the United States (e.g. Sicce (Italy)). Instead of using the plastic media that is found in downdraft skimmer designs, the Beckett skimmer uses design concepts from previous generations of skimmers, specifically the downdraft skimmer and the venturi skimmer (the Beckett 1408 Foam Nozzle is a modified 4 port venturi) to produce a hybrid that is capable of using powerful pressure rated water pumps and quickly processing large amounts of aquarium water in a short period of time. Commercial Beckett skimmers come in single Beckett, dual Beckett, and quad Beckett designs. Well engineered Beckett skimmers are quiet and reliable but the powerful pumps used in larger Beckett skimmer designs can take up additional space, introduce additional noise, and use more electricity than less powerful pumps. Unlike the Downdraft and Spray Induction skimmers, Beckett skimmer designs are produced by a number of companies in the United States and elsewhere and are not known to be restricted by patents. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_skimmer#Beckett_skimmer Cheers

Hi, Just share something from my bookshelf... "Introduction to Engineering Material pg 423-425" by Vernon John about Corrosion, Electrode potential (Anodic V Cathodic) and galvanic series in sea water... In summary: for some guideline, do not used material towards anodic (pg 423)... another words whichever, material shows Electrode potential < 1V, anodic material tends exhibited more prone to oxidation... or rust/corroded in layman term.... That is the reason Aluminium, Copper both are not advisable.... the galvanic series in sea water (pg 424).... Titanium shows the best 2nd after gold in cathodic category... Therefore, in general.. titanium corrosion resistance is higher than others.. but they have their own weakness..which doesn't effect us much .. That is also some other terminology... probably we can discuss later.... Hopes above few lines helps explain some of your doubt.... Cheers and Happy Reefing...

Thanks BFG.... Just notice the feedback... Sorry, I didn't address properly what I mean.... I think DUCADOS catch some point..... cause colleage time we r using "Fe" metal base for metal sheet works (it is cheap).... Therefore, I believe it can be fold even easier than normal metal sheet... As compare to "Fe", "Ti" much lower in term of Rockwell performance and also Young's modulus characteritic. and it is slightly harder than "Al" but still far softer than "Fe" in term of numbers..This is why I say "Soft"... Cheers....
