Have place the order for LED and reflector. It will be better than solarisled. As i am planing to use 10W LED instead of 3W LED by ######. Still trying to figure out the driver.

Yupe the driver and the "computer" is the hard part... I hope you don't spend too much on your 10W LEDs as they can blow easily if not configured properly :) All the best to you bro :D

Nothing much happen today. Still fabricating the stand. Its 50mm X 50mm Hollow galvanised steel. Has finished welding and will be painting it up on Monday and hopefully will be able to move into position by Wednesday.

Bro... looking at your project... it reminds me so much of those huge tanks at RC, you will set a new trend to reefing in Singapore... will definitely follow your progress closely :)

er.. if he ship it here... using a container ... 400+ ? ... aiya he must have done this calculation before.. so i guess taiwan's acrylic is cheaper :lol:

Probably Taiwan can do better acrylic tank too... I'm sure they have the mould there... how often you see such a tank in Singapore? Even so, it will probably be in inches instead of centimetres :)

inches? 240inches?! well, i doubt there are much large fish tank in taiwan, hong kong will most prob have more large tank, as they are even more enthu then us in keeping marine fishes.

What I meant was... even if we can find some existing mould for large acrylic tanks in Singapore, it will probably in inches instead of centimetres. We are so used to inches/footers here :lol: Yes I think there are much more larger tanks over there... they are financially more ready than us :(

Price including the shipping is cheaper as compare to local. But that is the secondary factor. Its seamless joint that I really like. Will take some picture when its ready to move onto the stand. And BTW, I order it here through LFS and make in Taiwan.

The stand is make of Hot Dip Galvanised hollow section. Which is better than powder coat, as hot dip is treating the internal and external. And it cannot be chiped of by knocking.

Finally all welding work has completed. All welded joint are treated with cold galvanise, and has just undercoat with Zinc Chromate. Tomorrow will have it painted with marine epoxy. Hopes all this work will help the stand to be strong for at least the next 10 years.

Yes the LFS is in the East
