    oh yea sorry i was thinking all the pipes are ss (not enough sleep, can't think properly), haha.
    so the pipes that are outside tanks are rubber tubings?

    any idea where can i get all these done? the 8mm tanks with the partition done up, and ss pipes? any recommended tank maker with good pricing and service to intro?
    thought of changing new tanks.
    bro veggie's SS pipe got from Bro Avex30 one. mine too.

    as for the tanks, his partitions are diy. Tanks are custom made.

    Re: project HDB for shrimps

    1 question, can the partition holes be covered by those wire mesh that we use in our kitchen basin to trap big particles?
    i saw daiso sells at $2 but the size of the holes i'm pretty sure shrimplets can pass through leh...

    Re: project HDB for shrimps

    i was looking through, didn't find. the wire mesh can bend easily and the hole size changes when bend. confirm shrimplets can pass thru.
    i was at plaza sing daiso anyway. is it there other other daiso outlets?

    Nah Putting in Lfs defeat the purpose of making the setup a budget one. Althought the pipe don't come cheap bu it beat having 2 to 3 chiller n a high electricity bills. There other budget setup like bro ET overflow n bridging system but those are too much engineering for my brains so the lazy men way is this solution haha.

    Hi Veggie,

    Is there a noticable water temperature difference of the tanks?

    I see, 0.3 is insignificant.

    wah... Very innovative to use the "stainless" tubing. Make me feel like setting up a shrimps rack too. ^.^

    Hi bro btw the SS pipe is not stainless pipe. It a marine steel pipe so it will not rust. For stainless steel pipe it won't work and it can't bend to the shape we want. Hope that you guys don't just anyhow buy the stainless pipe to do cause it will RUST.
