here is the picture of my winch. I got 2 of them for lifting my 4 orphek. However, after testing them...I'm starting to doubt their true capability to hold 50 lbs. I dont even think they are capable o

Wow! absolutely stunning aquascape. Im really impressed by the type of live rock u manage to get, seems very porous with great size and shape. Keep the photos coming!

i bought rocks from a seller who has a lot of rocks selection. bought plenty of rocks, still have plenty unused. im planning to store them for future use

bro, u really take sea water directly ar?? got filter 1st anot??

actually, its kinda normal for nsw here in my place to get so dirty. i do filter them with filter socks, but i think they didnt help that much. but not a problem,since it only take 4 hours for the water to be cleared into crystal clear by my filtration system. beckett skimmer is amazing!

Amazing skimmer. Too bad it is not available here in Singapore

i think there are such skimmer in sg. But not the brand which TS is using. Cos i ever came across big skimmer like what TS is using. NOT common i would say as not many of use has such a big tank which requires such a big skimmer.

Neutral is right. beckett skimmer technology is not a new technology. it is invented before needle wheel technology. It is power hog but certainly way better skimmer than needle wheel IMHO.

Hi guys, sorry for such a delayed post. anyway, last saturday afternoon I received a really amazing gift from an amazing friend of mine. opened later at night and cant stop the urge to assembled it. I assembled it after dinner with family from 11 o clock at night until almost 1 o clock in the morning. cramped inside my small small wet room ( i wish i have bigger wet room like harlequin mania's), I successfully assembled this amazing skimmer. here is the picture of the skimmer

Your equipments everything is over sized lol... Both are calcium media?

Yes, over sized. learnt it from you

yes they are both calcium media. left side is triton dastaco's marble media and right side is ARM xtra course.

the left chamber is the first chamber and the right chamber is the second chamber. i might add one small chamber to help to increase pH a little more by using smaller sized media

woah... ive been revived! thank you he for updating the post. sorry for long time absent. the tank had severe crashed due to heavy job schedule and marine velvet. i decided to wait for the marine velvet parasites to die before refilling the tank with new habitats. change the led with radions to excite me back to the hobby. more pictures will follow
