    DIY overflow

    in DIY Forum

    Posted

    Am having some issues w the DIY overflow piping on my tank. Currently at wit's end trying to solve it.

    Anyone willing to help me make a new set of overflow piping? Will be willing to pay a good sum.

    Do post a pic of your overflow system. Its very strange that 30mm down pipe cant handle 4600l/hr flow. I am using just a single 30mm downpipe and i an using 12k + 5k return pumps. My guess is there could be trapped air inside the downpipe which results in the slow flow.

    What do you keep other that marine fish

    Hi all, just asking. Anyone keep juv angel fish?

    Do they transform into adult in our tank?

    Ie emperor juvenile transform into adult emperor in out tank

    These are the fishes that I kept before from juv to Adult colour, French, Grey, Queen, Townsend, Emperor.

    French and grey grow damn fast given the right condition. Mine grew from 2inches to about 10 inches in less than a year. Emperor from 3 inches to 8inches. Sold it within 8 mths. Queen and townsend will be slow, 1.5inches to 4inches about 6 mths.

    feeling shameful myself :(

    Sorry bro

    If u know how to diy pipings, google diy overflow pipe.

    Seriously if u want to come into this hobby, make sure your tank is set up the right way. A sump tank will save u alot of problem in the future.

    I am seriously considering getting Deltec SC1660 after paying a visit to MadPetz today. Likely to get the artificial rocks from MadPetz too.

    I think a sc1660 might be alittle small for a 6ft fowlr. How many L can your tank hold? SC1660 heavy stock for 1100L normal stock 1300L, this make the turnover rate about 1 time nia. If possible go for at least 2 or 3 times.

    regarding using artifical rocks, if u want to know more, pm me, i will tell u something that might change your mind.

    So may I ask u got what type of OHF out there?thks :)

    I dont need to know how many type of OHF is out there. I already mention when ts mention his 6ft 3 tier OHF, I already know the kind of set up he is running on.

    If i know what kind of OHF ts is using, I

    will give my pc of advise, if i have no idea of what ts is using, I will just shut and let other members who have experience with it advise ts

    This is what forum is about, sharing our real life experience, not like some people need to google and give advise. Like that might as well tell ts to google, the answer are all there.

    Ohf ?

    Ok my bad for overly friendly..no offence n flame here..:)

    For those questions, I m asking the TS n hope to help think if any set up is feasible..its up to the TS to do so or not..in here its just advice n experience sharing..so stop asking me questions which expect me how to answer (eg. hahaha = funny?)(hope u get what I mean..if no, nvm, life goes on.. :) )cheers & happy reefing :)

    I dont see how asking for his pic of the ohf and pump rate is helping to think if any set up is feasible.

    If u need to google to know how the ohf look like, what advise and experience u talking about?

    Your answer pretty sum up everything.

    Cheers and happy reefing.

    Need advice on Cleaning Gravel

    Hi all, my FOWLR tank has been up for about 4 months now.. there are some particles of dirt on the sand bed.. the particles include algae.. How do you guys normally clean up the sand bed? I tried those gravel vacuum equipment but it's not strong enough to suck up the dirt..

    Care to share how you guys do it? Thanks.

    Mind sharing your tank Size and how u changing water

    Haha bro..imho, there shd b different types of OHF so interested to see this long OHF.. :) interested to know the pump rate of this big OHF too..hahaha

    Although OHF is not feasible for SW, but there are SW tanks that run without sump or skimmer or chiller or blah blah blah and still ok.. there is really no definate in life yea :) cheers

    When TS mentioned he is using 6ft 3 tier OHF, its already very clearcut what filter he is running? If u want to see can always google or dropby pasir ris farmway. Alot of fw shops selling the filter. At the same time can ask boss what pump to use.

    BTW how is interested to see the OHF and knowing pump rate of the OHF funny? Cos u ended it with hahaha, I abit slow dont get your "joke"

    Last but not least, I only know u as a customer, we not even frens to begin with, so spare me with your bro address. Not used to stranger calling me bro. No offence.

    Yes this tank i had is last time keep arowana 1 ... and just by keeping fw already i don like the Ohf as it looks damn ugly...all the dirt that traps in the tray...

    Ita really head pain for cleaning it if keeping salt water...

    I belive the tray small holes will get blockage by salt ....

    As my main concern is this 2 tank is quite new and in good condition . I wish i could buy new tank but u know the IO in the house making tons of noise due to too many tanks if i get another tank...

    By the way thanks everyone for advise ...i will reconsider should i go into salt water tank:(

    One other concern will be the cabinet for your current tank. Will it be able to withstand the weight of saltwater? Marine tank with salt water, rocks and sand can weight alot heavier than a normal fw setup. Also can it tahan kena saltwater anot.

    u can actually use your current tank if your cabinet has space to place a sump tank. google on diy overflow system, else u can get a overflow box. With some mods, u can have a overflow system in your set up.

    also if your tank is on metal stand, then forget the idea of marine. salt and metal dont mix very well.

    It really depend on what r u gg to keep..any pic of ur OHF? Coz I read that the size is 6ft 3 tier which is quite big in my view..the cons of OHF is unable to house equipment like skimmer, reactor, etc.. what's the pump rate of ur OHF?

    If u dont even know how a HOF look like, u sure u know how it works? Tell u pump rate got use? LOL
