Any experience with those power heads previously?
I was actually looking at just that exact model to upgrade to one day.
Let me know how it goes when your tank is all set up

I have had experience with jebao's previous powerheads but not this one. I will keep this thread updated with its performance

Well I finally got the tank and its so puny that I shall call it the "punyquarium"

I am yet to get the skimmer, the live rocks and the RODI unit. Will start building a wood frame tomorrow. Nothing fancy, just plain frame and will cover it with carbon fiber 3M (to match with the black silicon of the tank). Here are some pictures:

Well I finally got the skimmer

2016-01-04 16.46.41 by M Raied Hasan, on Flickr

Haven't seen a lot of skimmer but this is the most beautiful skimmer I have seen to date

2016-01-04 16.47.06 by M Raied Hasan, on Flickr

2016-01-04 17.42.33 by M Raied Hasan, on Flickr

I encountered two issues with the skimmer:

1. The small piece of pipe connecting the pump and the bubble plate is loose (seems like they didn't put in enough glue) so I will have to use some superglue to fix that thing. No big deal.

2. The skimmer chamber barely fits the skimmer (no space between the inlet and the glass so this will have to be resolved in this weekend.

Will get the superglue, fix the pipe and will put it into vinegar bath. Probably won't be able to get the tank going for another two weeks
