what light is good? i thinking to use metalhalite or t5...

It's really up to you bro... depending on how hard you want your chiller to work... T5 will produce much lesser heat but you will not get the shimmering/rippling effect on the sandbed... go to my tank thread... I'm using 6 x ATI T5, bought a 10 x ATI to be installed this week.

Talk to Janet... and try to get a good deal from her :lol: Use my name!

Hi Mr Manir, nice tank u got there :rolleyes: wanna asked whether there is beam in the middle of ur cabinet to help substain the weight of the tank. It will lessen the stress of the cabinet if a beam were to be added to it. Jus my thoughts :)

Since they give u the warranty, u can have a piece of mind.

However, most tank makers still insist on the centre beam to support the tank. Even highly-aclaimed Aquatechnic also use the centre beam.

There are quite a range of skimmers in the market now, why choose the beckett? :)

i fully agree with bro flamey. Beckett is indeed a good skimmer considering that i used to own 3 of it. . the reason for switching to venturi and needlewheel skimmers is the high wattage needed to power these skimmers.

Since u already bought the beckett, might as well just use it. If not, i strongly recommend switching to Deltec.

i have seen the performance of it.

Besides, you don't have to use one to know that its good. Its like telling people that Royal Exclusiv Bubble King is the best, i don't have to own one to say tt.
