project HDB for shrimps

[Neondagger]

Haha thanks. Still got 6 more months I renovating my room to store a 3ft 2tier


In the process of learning. painful but fun!

You want to keep Sulawesi shrimps hookup with the CRS tanks with chiller? Sulawesi and CRS shrimps water parameter and temperatures to be kept are totally different. You may need to do some homework and research first.

[avex30]

Wow Chiller for sulawesi??

Sorry bro veggie, don't mean to hijack your thread..

But bro neondagger, how come the CPU, TV, PS3 & SCV is in the diagram? Are they in the set up also or some monitoring system which you will be hooking to the set up as I know EHEIM Pro3 series can link to CPU..
Sorry, I am just curious...

Now that you mention isn't it risky to put all those so near to the tanks?? hmm unless he waterproof everything.....

[veggie]

Hey bro veggie,

Are coming to help me out also when i pm you? Lol

You got some solid shrimps there.

Those bio rings, is that powerhouse stuff?

Man, you guys are miles a head in shrimpkeeping.

Haha.... Sure if you are going to going to buy my plane ticket. Those are mr aqua bio ring, I don't have any PH media.

Haha.... You are always welcome to post here, I think bro neondagger is showing his whole room. Ya sorry but I though Sulawesi shrimps need higher ph and higher temp in order to keep them????

[Neondagger]

Ya seen people put the sulawesi on the top and shrimps that need colder temp and lower ph at the bottom with chiller. This way I do not need the chiller to chill 2 tanks ma. The top tank will run a different set of eheim filter from the cabinet to the top tank and back. Thats what I thought. The chiller going through another set of eheim filter that is will be for the second tank. I am aware that sulawesi and crs type need totally different parameter. dun worry not that lousy.
After thinking what alvin said. I think I going to put the monitor and cpu to the other end of the tank so that it that any leak will not affect my computer. Haha I renovating the whole room. so that it could fit a 2tier 3ft tank. still got long, like 6months till I renovating. So this project still got quite long. even 6months might a short time actually. now counting back. I been in this hobby for almost 3-4months already haha. I want to venture to deep end of this hobby sia but $$$$ haha. Student no money. after that go ns even more no $$$. if I get to choose. I would have a room full of tanks for different shrimps haha. alway dreaming of one. I think everyone agree with me. Now thinking how to design the cabinet so that it nice looking le. no offend but I dun like bare rack. for me looks damn plain. Well since I still have a Long time before the set up. I think I hand this thread back to veggie. O ya the PS3 and SCV is not in danger as I think it's at least 4ft away from the tank and same height as the top tank so I dun think water can shoot that far plus covered by a cabinet. Good idea for the EHEIM Pro3 series haha but I think not cpu la. Probably a laptop to set the timing and all, but no cpu near any hoses after thinking haha. potential death when sleeping see the room flooding with electricity water. I alway thought creating a rack would lbe expensive. Lets say I get everything first hand. a big EHEIM filter to 2 eheim 2213/2217 canister for 1 tank, plus a chiller for the first tank. would take at least $1000 LIAO! 2 tank $2000!!! hmm 2 csytal glass tank 3ft. $800? then plus cabinet DAMAGE about 1k? like 4K liao. Then EHEIM Substrates plus High Grade shrimps. OMG bomb sia. this is the most expensive furniture in my room. not my cpu liao haha. Well since my mother dun support my hobby. thinking is a waste of time and effort. Alway tell me, keep play play can liao. I must support myself. Sorry veggie!!!! I got too engross in typing. enjoying chatting with fellow hobbist! I dun think this hobby would not be the same without fellow hobbist too. hehe Peace OUT !!!! XOXO Gossip Girls haha

[avex30]

dude you going to NS soon why do you want to waste or dump all your hard earn crash in there......... If i were you i wouldn't i rather save it for a rainy days for the NSF time. Just do a simple setup for you to ease your training pressure. Unless you confirm you will be those that can stay out.

Well like what bro avex30 said better hold your bullet after your BMT at lest if you really want to setup. If not no one will take care of the shrimps, they will die of hunger. Cause during BMT you can forget about booking out for the 1st 6 weeks, correct me if I am wrong. Cause during my times is like that, so after that then set up would be a better idea. And like I said don't think you would need 5k for all the stuffs. From what you are getting I think I can set up at max 3k if you really know where to find the stuff. 1k for me I can buy 2 tanks & 4 canisters maybe top up bait more only.

heh heh now only the 1st 2 weeks are the confinement period.. after that you can book out for every weekends provided you don't get extras or allocated for guard duty (for the weekends) .. then again for that 2 weeks you probably need someone to look out for you in case anything happens..
It will be advisable for you to start on this project only after you get posted out from bmt to units or training schools as you will have more time on your hand ( can take off/leave and ...........chao keng abit <== just joking but possible..)

good luck for your enlistment neon..because i ord lo hehehe (just this year though..)

[huizhong]

No need confinement. My 1st 2weeks atc C for 4 days. Book in and out every other day. Haha. But very xiong for enhanced batch if keep atc C. Everything also dunno, need to catch up, very Cham(poor thing)

[veggie]

Here is some new stuff as I reset

[stormhawk]

I'm curious on your tank layout, especially the uppermost one. The Hailea chiller comes with an external probe?

When I go back I will take a pic and show you. Btw it does not come with external probe.

[darrentyl]

Tony, seems like the same after my last visit to your place leh.

Only difference is the upgrade of your chiller.

Haha

[veggie]

Lol.... Darren Please check my 1st post. Different la. When you came the last time it already reset liao. Haha....

[jas crs]

Veggie, you still using the ss pipe system? if using haliea 150a for 2 tanks of 2ft in ss pipe, whether enough power to chill both tanks?

[alvinchan80]

I am using Hailea 28A (150A equivalent) on 2 tanks of 2ft (60x30x36cm)... It is enough with a difference of 0.5deg between the 2 tanks...
