SRC Member Melvyn Tan Posted July 3, 2004 Author SRC Member Share Posted July 3, 2004 oic Was thinking of loading the canisters with Rowaphos and Carbon. Erm...the flow from the tank to my refugium (bio-sediments), then to my another tank (haven't ordered yet maybe 3 ft) where it'll contain sand bed (either deep sand bed or just 3" with losta live rocks then to the compartment for skimming) before returning it back to the tank. Ideas anyone?

auberon Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 Really like your aquarium stand. . can recomment your maker?

SRC Member Melvyn Tan Posted July 5, 2004 Author SRC Member Share Posted July 5, 2004 Sure no problem !! Ordered from Sealife - tank and stand maker Ah Aik (understand he's been making such for like 18 years since SL started and been with them since).

Ordered from Sealife - tank and stand maker Ah Aik (understand he's been making such for like 18 years since SL started and been with them since). Thanks! The woodwork looks good. Still trying to decide on the size of the tank... Depends on whether can fit budget! Especially with a solid wood stand. By the way, you really having a full height cabinet to cover the stand? Seems such a waste... Sorry, crazy over wood. Looks like it's gonna be a great set-up anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me waiting to get a quote. But most probably wait a few months to make sure on the set up. I had one is the word all right. Well not royal but Brazillian. Haven't seen a Royal Gramma yet. Nice fish. Anyway had the gramma last year. Was doing well until I shifted. It was just before CNY so didn't have time to check on the tank. By the time I came back, ICH! Damage done. COuldn't save so sad Bought another one a few months back but my tank eco started to crash. High PO4 and 700-800 reading on calcium. That's now looking at system with refuge and stuff.
