QUOTE(Malformed @ May 8 2012, 11:13 PM) Is it easy to setup the computers fan for the aquarium? quite easy also , but need see the voltage ,
Added on May 8, 2012, 11:31 pmQUOTE(yweising @ May 8 2012, 11:21 PM) i believe every1 also can make it if the tank is kept in the middle room of a big house without any direct sunlight to any part of the room, eg. like the underground room, even with a single fan u will feel like an aircond room  my tank is at living room This post has been edited by deric79k: May 8 2012, 11:31 PM |

QUOTE(kurangak @ May 8 2012, 11:36 PM) ac/dc power supply/converter , n if u fancy it, a switch to switch it on n off.. wiring is pretty much direct... even a primary schooler can do it...  dont need so susah lah , just buy this type of fan , DC fan size is 120mm x120mm x35mm ball bearing type, new one , min can last u for 2-3 years
Added on May 8, 2012, 11:41 pmQUOTE(beer8bottles @ May 8 2012, 11:39 PM) Errr.. typical Malaysian homes don't have underground rooms. Mine is also in the living room, that's why I found it strange. How can the temperature drop to 25C just by fan. Usually, fan only reduces the temperature 1 -2 C only. Is it aquarium fan + living room fan, or just living room fan alone? living room fan is about 3 meter from tank , than i add one fan on top of aquarium , which is 120mm x 120mm x35mm This post has been edited by deric79k: May 8 2012, 11:41 PM Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE(Malformed @ May 8 2012, 11:43 PM) DC? Tomorrow go lfs check see got sell or not  this is i buy n diy myself , LFS sell really make one is around RM80++. i DIY only less than RM 50
Added on May 8, 2012, 11:45 pmQUOTE(kurangak @ May 8 2012, 11:43 PM) yep... can use that too... but i dont like the idea of having 240v live wire on top of water surface... wont have wire on top lah
Added on May 8, 2012, 11:46 pmQUOTE(melodyworm @ May 8 2012, 11:44 PM) yes actually the DIY is the easy part. the hard part is how to make the stand for the fan so that it stands next to your tank and not fall inside and cause tragedy instead... imagine a full force fan going inside ur planted tank... fish plants and soil all will be upside down already... i totally agree wit u bro This post has been edited by deric79k: May 8 2012, 11:46 PM |

QUOTE(LuQEE @ May 9 2012, 06:27 AM) bro radver,
youre fan looks so clean 
mine already dusty, too lazy to clean
btw, if using high lighting, does the water evaporation rate increases? notice water level droping a lot today yes, using high lighting will make the water more fast to evaporation rate increases |

QUOTE(Malformed @ May 9 2012, 06:55 PM) Came home to find out the temperature in my aquarium is 30.7, lowest seen was 28.7.. Is this a big difference? Is it possible to set up a tank under the ceiling, but side exposed to the sun, without algae?
Added on May 9, 2012, 7:02 pmIf sifu tak tau, beginner like me impossible will tau... but Google tells it is possible, just that it is not so popular for aquariums. Maybe this link may help http://saltaquarium.about.com/od/emergency...oweroutages.htmhttp://www.everything-aquatic.com/2010/03/...e-ups-test.htmlMaybe if someone get suppliers on this, a new business product will be sold  how can the temp so high ? |
