Je®vis' Office 800L SPS Tank

Je®vis · #1 04/13/2007, 08:12 AM

Greetings from the tiny island of Singapore!!!

Been reefing for more than a year now (3rd tank... still considered an amateur)... finally gathered enough courage to share with you guys my humble reef tank.

I started this tank last October (6 months ago) and the tank is located at my office (behind my workstation).

Here's a recent FTS as a starter and I promise more to come

Would like to take this opportunity to thank RC (and all its members) for the knowledge and inspirations I've gathered for the past year

I must apologize for the algae-infested back panel

Will try to do something about it...

Will be sharing my tank specifications shortly... appreciate your valuable comments and feedbacks

I see you have an office reef tank too... any thread you could link to?

Here's a better visualization of my tank setup... my office is located in a colonial old shophouses and my work area is at the attic

Getting the main tank across the narrow staircases... entrance ways... is a real challenge... any larger I'll have to lift the tank up using a Crane Lifter

The most difficult task is to get it up the attic

Thanks

Here's how the basic tank, hood and cabinet looks like... looking rather humble compared to most RC's tanks

Yes, it's dominated by pink corals now because they were my largest pieces and they broke up in the move. I have lots of purples and blues and a couple of green pieces that are growing out now. Maybe one day I'll have the beautiful color balance that you have accomplished.

Well... it is quite a distraction I must admit

But it does motivate me to go to work every morning

Here's my external protein skimmer... Hydor Performer 3000... with a De Bary 15W UV on the right

I have a 2ft Juwel tank connected to the whole system

Je®vis · #22 04/15/2007, 05:33 AM

External Red Dragon 6,5m3 as return pump...

Arctica 1/3hp chiller keeping my water at a range of 25ºC to 26.5ºC... controlled by Aquatronica

Je®vis · #23 04/15/2007, 05:40 AM

Will introduce the rest of the equipments later... just downgraded (or upgraded?) from MH to ATI Powermodule 10 tubes using ATI tubes 2 weeks ago... very happy with the result so far

Je®vis · #24 04/15/2007, 07:23 AM

We have an active reefing community here in Singapore and we sometimes pass frags and colonies around... collected these from a fellow reefer this morning
