welcome, i'm glad to help out

Hey eviltrain bro, i'm here to ask you some questions again. Pardon me

1. Did you DIY your rain bar unit? It looks like a PVC pipe with drilled holes And how did you attach it to your tank? (Looks very sturdy)

I'm still trying to figure out how to setup my tank. Need some professional advice from you.

erm... i never attach the pipe to the tank. i remove the rain bar because its making weird noise due to the water pressure and the air. now the pipe just flow to each tank. i will be taking updated photo as soon as i fix in the new canister, move my chiller up and maybe add a pump.

for those who is interested around how much my shrimp rack used to set up, here's the break down.( all in SGD )

3 tier 2 feet rack - ( 2nd hand, with two 5plan : 70 )

2 customised 2 x1 x 1 feet tanks from my tank maker ( 70 )

1 ocean free 2 x 1 x 1 feet tank ( 23 )

3 pieace of long glass 58.5cm x 5cm x 0.5 cm for the soil partition ( 12 )

ADA Amazonia II soil 2 packets ( used 1.5 packets only for volume of 60 x 20 x 5 cm per tank )

Jet 3688 Filter + Resun CL450 from previous setup ( will be adding a Atman 1200 external filter, chiller change to Teco 15 when i fix the problem )

Lights : 3 numbers of T5HO 24 watt for each tank. ( around 100 because the top rack is using magnum lighset )

Undergravel panel ( i used 7 piece for 3 tanks. each 1 dollar )

plastic pipings ( joints and straight pipes ) for the whole shrimp rack over flow system including failed prototype ( 30 dollars )

miscellaneous : tools for all DIY ( around 30-40 dollars )

satisfactory upon completion : Priceless

some ideas after completing :
just need to find the right stuffs at the right time.
stock them up and construct.
don't rush.
if possible, bigger rack will be cheaper over all ( equipment wise )

thanks for viewing

these are the basic calculation. not including livestock and plants.
