Hi Guys Since not getting any responses in MAC, I guess I post them here. Hopefully the sifus here pulak can guide:
1) I got a new 2213, it came with 5xBlue filter pad, 1xWhite pad and 1xBlack AC pad. Need to know the order to put them in. Since there is 5xBlue pad, can I order them this way, from bottom: a) 1 x Blue b) Ceramic Rings c) 1 X Blue d) Bio Rio or Subtract Pro e) 1 x White f) 1 X Black
Is the order correct?
Also If I get a box of 2L Bio Rio (since it is may economical) can I fit all 2L in the 2213? probably need to remove the blue pads?
2) I got also a ISTA Multi function CO2 diffuser, should it go before or after the filter? Is there a logic if it is going before the filter?
3) I have taken out the branches from my nano tank, remove the mini pelia as I don't like to see the white gel glue residue on the branches. Now whats the best way to keep the mini pelia outside the tank? Currently I just soaked them in some tank water, hopefully they will survive.
Thanks guys!

Thanks guys for the prompt replies @kenneth - here's the picture:  @bishop - my tank is 60cm x 30cm x 40cm. Got the 2213 from NA at RM300. Comes with all filter pads and double tap valves! @sweetpuff - Now I am worried if the 2213 is underpowered This post has been edited by crewmy: May 24 2010, 12:33 PM

My brass splitter came in set of 2 splitters like these, and it costs me 70++. Those selling at 40++ only have one splitter. With these I have 2 outputs which I can control the flow into 2 separate bubble counters.  Added on May 25, 2010, 9:38 pmMy HC seems to be unhealthy, unlike the first night it was pearling! My tank details: Size: 30cm(L)x20cm(W)x26cm(H) abt 16L CO2: 1bps Lighting: 1x11W FL, 2x8W T5 Fertilizers: None  Any advises? This post has been edited by crewmy: May 25 2010, 09:38 PM

I saw there are also AC fans sold in Low Yat, the wind flow is greater but I have also read discussions that it is dangerous if it dropped into the water....so DC supposed to be safer la....

Tomorrow (Sunday) is the last day. Nothing much on the warehouse sales unless you are looking for EHEIM HOBs or EHEIM Internal filters. Yes got 2224 (about 400++) and the ECCO series.

Is that fan on the left side of the tank effective? How much lower can the temp go?

My CO2 tank no more gas but the solenoid gauge not pointing to zero on both the gauges, what could be the problem?
Where in Klang Valley I can get a refill done instantly? Do I need to leave it for a few days?
