Thanks..yeap.. I do agree i've started since back then but recently i am out of this hobby for 6months due to exams etc.. so now i'm back , but abit rusty, not knowing what is what and expecially the equipments market. :blink: You bought your 1262 already? If not,maybe can lend me try it out on my tank :lol:

Is your tank cycling or still in the making?

For the skimmer, no need to test , just leave 2 running and im sure it will produce result for your sps.. :idea:

I tested the eheim 1262 for my 6 footer before, its damn powerful compared to Aquabee 3000 or other pumps. unfortunately i have sold it already.

i am still in the midst of planning the tank man. . . . :lol:

Some updates:

Tank sld be coming very soon.

sump tank build to 2.5-3 ft instead of 2ft so that there is more playing space.

skimmer will be using ATI BM-250, unless can't fit into the sump.

cheers mate!!

Return pump: Eheim 1262 switched to Resun MD40 instead. Any objections?

Capacity,turnover rate wise, much better, but again, eheim is :bow::bow::bow:

When the tank is coming? :upsidedown:

I am hoping the tank will come today, if not latest by next week.

Eheim 1262 is 80 watts, 3600 litres/hr, which is very close to Resun MD40 (80 watts and 3800litres/hr.

For every Eheim1262 i buy, i can get 3 Resun Md40. lol. . . :P

What will be the wavemaker you planing to use for this tank apart form the flow from the return pump :rolleyes:

For the 2ft cube, it will be bare-bottom as i anticipate sandstorms in future.

I will either add a tunze 6060 or tunze nanostream x2 (4500 litres model). Turnover wld be more than sufficent for such a small tank.

Agreed. eheim 1262 + tunze nanostream x2 (4500 litres model) will create 55-75 times of turnover per hour and lots of turbluance perfer by SPS... good choice :lol:

So did u manage to settle the flowrate for ur own reef tank? :)

A few nano streams and a good return pump will do the job.
