Sorry, can anyone advise how a 3 pin plug able to resolve the issue of stray current. Beside the original two cable for appliance (live and neutral), do we need to add another cable (earth)? Connected from the plug to where?

My intention is to use it to feed clown fish larva. Try frozen rotifer, survive rate about 1 percent only.

Where can we buy Roti-feast?

By the way, can kindly let us know whether Roti-feast can replace 'live' rotifer after your experiment?

Just call reborn. Stock is avaliable but no live one.

Hi all, Anybody use this to feed clownfish fry? How is the outcome?

Called Petmart and Reborn, both also say the former supplier had stopped providing them stock. Just wonder any LFS sell the 'eggs' so that try to culture them?

Hi all, Anyone can advise where can I get live rotifer?

According to the instruction, extract from Jireh's web page; This product is "natural nutritional marine animal of the ocean food web for feeding wide varieties of Corals, shellfishes, fish fry, filter feeders and invertebrates. Readily taken by acropora, montipora, pocillopora, favia, lobophillia, fungia, galaxea, blastomusa, trychyphyllidae, cynarina, cataphyllia,euphyllia hammer, bubble coral, sun coral and invertebrates eg. feather duster worm, sea anemone, mushroom, coral barnacle, clams, small shrimp, seafan, feather star and colonial tuicates." So just wonder can this be used to replace 'Live' Rotifer?

Hi, any body try this product for clownfish larva? Or can this be used as a replacement for 'Live" rotifer?

Please advise whether this product is still available in LFS

Hi FuEl, Thanks for the offer. If I really can't get it, can I approach you? By the way, which part of the East are you talking about?

Hi all, Please advise which LFS in North or Western side of Singapore have carried the live rotifer. Had tried Reborn but told stock will be only avaliable in two weeks time. Anyone can advise?

In the North or Western area in S'pore, where can we get live Rotifer and the starter kit for culturing them. For feeding of clownfish fry, beside live rotifer, any alternative?

Thanks Wilson, May take a trip down.

What type of starfish they have. Have those red, orange or blue type? And if these difficult to keep?

Do they have stock of starfish and cleaner shrimp?

Are this safe in tank?

Beside the adding of AZNO3, will a carbon cause oxygen starvation or any other possible reason. By the way, I had been aerating the tanks from day one of my set-up.

Thanks for all comments and the reading taken from by hydrometer is 1.022. I doubt the sg is the problem as this reading is quite normal for my past year. I would like to monitor a bit longer as I still have tube worms, tube anemone, turbo snails and zoo in my tanks. If they can make it, then I would just add in new fishes or else restart the cycle again. The test kits I usually is definitely less than 1 year old but not sure about the validity date. Do they marked on the box?

For your information, in the past I used a type of solution using a brand with pH 7.0 in blue and pH 4.0 in pink (sorry forget the brand) and it is costing about $7~8. I used this solution to calibrate my pen to a reading of pH7.0 But recently, this brand is running out (not sure what is the reason) for couple of months so had to change to another brand in white container (no brand name) for about $6. After finishing the blue solution with a calibration of pH 7.0 on the pen, I use the white container solution to test but the pen give me a reading of pH 7.4. Please note that I never re-use this type of solution by pouring back.

Thanks for all the advices. My last fire clown also gone. Had throw away the 'chemipure' and shall observe what happened next.

That's possible as I had changed a new brand of 'chemipure'. Don't agreed it is dued to losing of good bacteria as I had still old ceramic rings, Biohome and the bio-matt (green wired type of sponge by Qian..) which claim to develop good bacteria inside my filtration system. During the changing of the chemipure, I washed the other filtration media with tank water. Another possiblility is that I had added some dried blood worm in their daily diet but I still feed them alternatively with frozen brine shrimp, live brine shrimp and specially packed marine pellet food.
