Ballast cabinet with no ventilation? That will be awesomely hot!
 
ChingChai,

This is the best tank thread ever! Congratulations!.

The journey so far has been sweet.

Thanks for sharing it with the world.

Hope to see the fishes soon.
 
Are you going to keep the tank at this temperature? Seems a bit low compared to what I'm used to. (24C = 75 Fahrenheit)

Yes, I am.
I also keep my old tank in this level.
Some fishes can't do well in higher temperature. That is the reason.
 
The main return pump issue should not be a problem for short time (time to repair or replace) with the lot of flow you still have in the tank.

I will more worry about power cut, did you have an alternative power supply in this case?

Just like I mentioned before, this area never has power cut problem.
 
Amazing tank Ching. If it is not too much trouble when is the Camera usually available for viewing on the East Coast USA? I have been trying to see the camera but I think I always miss it.

My two webcams are always on.
But yesterday something's wrong with one of them and also my 3 MH bulbs.
They will come to fix it today.
 
Ditto on the web cam issue, I haven't been able to see it either. I was thinking it was because I was running some program that needed updated or IE8, maybe java? I get totally jelouse when I hear about what others are watching that I am missing :(. As far as the scrathes go, I would like to observe or see what kind of technique chingchai uses to clean that acrylic. However I'm pretty sure that most of the large aquariums around the U.S. use acrylic panes in their gigantic displays. I think I remember seeing divers in those tanks cleaning the window with a soft cloth. Of course they don't have the sand to contend with which could be a concern here. I wonder if you could modify a powerhead into a little hand held buffer.
Awesome tank by the way, I can't wait to get one!

matthewdmueller. Thanks.
My fish guy will take care of tank cleaning. He is the expert.:D

You are right. All big aquarium use acrylic panes.
