SRC Member scarab Posted May 16, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted May 16, 2005 Nice tank bro.. Notice your overflow box is in the corner and it is not accessible from the side or back. You might want to think of some contingencies to access to it, in case you have fishes falling into it. You will have problem accessing it to catch the fish.

RAV-65 Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 Bro, suggest you make a taller glass cube for the overflow while maintaining the length of the pipes, if not I tink the splashing of the water coming down pretty heavy and might seep out... Juz my $0.02... but tank looking great! Quote People do not plan to fail; Often they just fail to plan... Wat I do to prevent myself from tearing my hair out... My stress remedy...

RAV-65 Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 bro. ya u r right. find it rather difficult to change the filter. need to change the glass cube. The chamber looks small too, any filter media might clog up soon, make sure you clean it often or you'll find it flooded pretty soon... Juz my $0.02... keep the pics coming, looking forward to another great tank in the making... Quote People do not plan to fail; Often they just fail to plan...

With 75W, not sufficient for SPS... Even the intensity may not be enough to light up your entire tank... : Quote People do not plan to fail; Often they just fail to plan...

Scroll Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 Hi Scroll, Am still deciding what to keep. but for start, maybe with LS/LR. Yes u r right. plan to place the chiller at the next room which is the kitchen. here the pic taken at the kitchen. whoa right through the wall....awesome , great looking tank I must say HaanZii lighting might want to go for bigger watts unless you're going for multiple T5's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
