DSPS tank from Thailand (1000 gallon+)

Ching, I am an audiophile and am very interested in your setup. Do you participate in any audio or video forums where you describe your equipment?

Thanks again for taking the time to post the photos of your tank build. I'll never be able to build such a system, so I and many others are living vicariously through your thread.

Hi ChingChai,
Your rocks look so tiny in your big tank, you going to put in coral farm rocks later?

What is the mesh under the rock for? You adding sand too?

Also i wonder how you going to place your corals later. Really difficult to scape such a big tank. I think you ought to install a oxygen pipe for you to scuba later. :0

HAHAHa...looking at those huge water reservatories at the street, i wonder what your neighborhood talk about all that move in and out your home...Those reservatories call more attention than that elephant who came there once...
You must bee kind of superhero of the children around there...
Chingchai....the Aquaman....King of Atlantis....The ReefKing......hahahahaha

Of all the things to marvel at in this thread, it's funny that I am wondering the same thing

 

[Haksar]

I think they are using a ladder as per the video.

I spent the last 4hrs reading this post, and all I have to say is WOW. If imitation is the best form of flattery, then one day I wish I can replicate this masterpiece in my home.

Keep the pics coming.

Hal. Thanks.
I know what you mean for your question.
I also am the videophile.


But the problem is I can't buy the house next to mine.
They are not for sale.
People here love to stay in their old house rather than moving to the new one.

everything you made is always great even with limited space

Niceeeeeeee! I wish I was this creative

Just wondering... Why you using eggcrates? Doesn't it trap detritus?

I use eggcrate in the purpose of making base rock firm. Not easy to move back and forth.
Then I will pour live sand on it after finishing aquascape.
So no need to worry about detritus.

Pedro. Thanks.
Portuguese wine sounds very interesting. But I seldom see it in store.
Anyway, I will try to find it.

BKK is better than 8 years ago. Still in a rush but traffic is not as bad as before.

Yes, I will put in Coral farm rocks later.
I will add live sand when I finish this aquascape.

Of course, I have to scuba to place corals. Tough but must be fun.

Yes, it can use to stick coral.
You are right. I am clam-lover.
