That one massive setup....how i wish i got so much space

Any preview of what type of monster we be expecting

Ok, let cont with the 12fgt setting up process..

Doing piping for the 2 overflow pipes

The overflow pipes controlled by 2 stopper valves separately. 24hrs water dripping in and water will go out from here

The new installed outdoor electric sockets and the water taps. One is normal tap water that we use at home, the other is underground water

mudskippy · 17-07-2012, 05:05 PM

Adding in tap water for the 1st time, to clean up the residual fiber glass or any possible chemicals within. Water will keep for 2 days then drained up

It takes me 4.5 hrs to fill up this 12 footer

DIY dividers adding in to make sure they nicely fit in. You can notice that the bottom concrete base has also tiled beautifully

2pcs 4x1.5x1.5ft fgt filter box arrive. The original filter dividers have been re-cut & custom made as my request. Thus the resin paint looks differently at the joints

LFS has made a mistake and provides too much bioballs. Request them to take them out and only keep 10% of the bioballs..

1st FGT filter box in place on the left

2nd FGT filter box in place at the right

Probably u guys will ask again what is that blue rack thing doing on top the fgt. It is used as the basement to hold the 4x3x2ft glass tank

4x3x2ft 10mm glass tank

mudskippy · 17-07-2012, 05:12 PM

3 water pumps will be using for this 12 footer. 1 x Eheim 1264 4500l/hr, 2 x Jebao 6500l/hr Eco water pumps

Piping in process

The white marble tiles are measured and cut to fit in the fgt nicely. They will be used at the bottom of the 12ft fgt

mudskippy · 17-07-2012, 05:15 PM

Eheim pump has been used on the 1st filter box

1st Jebao pump is used for the 2nd filter box & OHF. The 2nd piece will be used as water current maker

From here you can notice the overflow pipe coming down from the glass tank above
