  1. Oops, didn't realise the link is broken. Here is a pic for reference. Thanks Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
  2. You can go to the general forums and intro yourself and post some pics of your tank etc and ask questions or share advice. Not too difficult actually. Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
  3. Hi i'm looking for Macropharyngodon negrosensis AKA Yellow-spotted Wrasse, google pic below for reference. Please pm me with a pic and your asking price. Or if you have any wrasse you're thinking of selling/giving up can also ping me, but no promises as i need to consider size and temperament also. Thanks.
  4. Sold, please close thread, thanks Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
  5. Bump! Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
  6. Sorry only the pump left. PS: For your hospital tank, usually a big sponge filter with air pump is good enough. Fish is already stressed and i find the lesser flow, plus some hiding spots, seems to lower stress levels.
  7. Hi all, looking for either a yellow canary wrasse (Halichoeres Chrysus) or a Canarytop Wrasse (Halichoeres Leucoxanthus). Or please let me know if you've seen any recently. Not sure why I haven't seen usually this affordable and common wrasse at the few LFS i frequent. Pm me location and price please! Thanks
  8. Used Seio M1100 pump. Turns 4400 liters per hour, should be good for 3-4 feet tanks. comes with all pictured accessories. $20 Brand new Gex Slim filter M size. Box a bit damaged but item inside is fine. $20 Deal at Pasir Panjang, pm me for more details!
  9. Hi, putting up my rainbow wolf fish (erythrinus erythrinus sp Peru) for adoption. He's quite shy and is currently recovering from an eye infection in the left eye (there's a small air bubble in his eye) and colour is not the best. He also jumps when scared, so make sure your tank is covered. I recommend at least a 2ft tank with floating plants and some pipes for hiding. Eats anything (worms, frozen seafood, pellets etc) and MAY be aggressive, I'm not sure as I've always kept him alone. Also note he's a Peru variant so the colour is not the same as the usual rainbow wolf fish. Unfortunately he's very fast so I can't really take pics of him, can only show video and provide a Google image of his colour scheme. Click the YouTube link to see him in action. Please note this is a freshwater fish and he cannot tolerate salt at all. Collection at Pasir Panjang, pm me for more details! Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

  12. Hi all. Have a strange situation to deal with. I have a 4ft tank FOWLR with fish below 4" size for about 3 years. It contains the following livestock: 1. Red banded shrimp 2. Cleaner shrimp 3 tailspot blenny 4. Yellow coral goby 5. Pincushion urchin 6. Freckled hawkfish 7. Six line wrasse 8. Narcissus Snail x 3 9. Some random brittle stars (10 cent sized body) Over the last 2 months, I have tried adding different fish into the tank but all have been mysteriously attacked. I will sometimes observe the fish looking stressed and having fin or scale damage one day, then next day they are missing. So far I have the following fish issues in sequence: 1. Laboutei wrasse 3" (missing) 2. Mcosker flasher wrasse 2" (missing) 3. Lubbock's wrasse 3" (rescued) 4. Firefish 3" (missing) 5. Naoko wrasse 3" (rescued) So far it seems like I am unable to add more fish unless I isolate the problem. The 2 wrasse I rescued are housed in a separate partition with a dwarf lion, no problems so far as they are same size. Any idea who the culprit is? I only observed the 6 line wrasse (only 1.5") bullying the wrasses so I isolated it, but the attacks continued. The tank is loosely covered with plastic mesh, at least 90%. So chance of them jumping out is also low. I tried spying on the tank at night with a red light bit so far didn't see anything weird. The only strange thing I observed is the Naoko wrasse sleeping on the sand and the narcissus snails where crawling on top of it. I'm really running out of ideas what it could be. Hope all sifus can advise. Thanks! Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
  13. Didn't own it long enough to advise you, but the thing i learnt the hard way is to never never ever let it come into contact with air. Made the mistake of transporting mine between office and home tank years ago, netted it out of the water, put it in a small container with an airstone... ended up even the airstone's current was too much and the frogfish was spinning around like in a washing machine. after that it couldn't really walk on the floor, floated about weirdly and died within 1 night. Read up online later that they can easily get air stuck in their stomach and have to be manually "burped" or they will die swiftly. It was a bad day
  14. Selling off this tiny 1.5" bad boy who is capable of bullying all other wrasses 3 times his size. However, he is peaceful with all other fish. Eats anything and prefers a sand bed to sleep in. $6. Pm me! Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
  15. Selling off my huge spider decorator crab as well as his 2 hermit crab sidekicks. The decorator is the size of an adult hand (body alone is maybe 2 inch across, with legs is easily 6 inches) and the 2 hermits are medium sized, currently living in 2-2.5 inch shells. One is orange and the other is blue (Clibanarius infraspinatus and Clibanarius longitarsus) Warning, these 3 buggers will kill and eat fish up to 3 inches long. They can ambush sleeping fish at night and eat the whole thing by morning. The decorator will also rip out your corals to wear like a hat. Definitely NOT SUITABLE for nano reef/fish, but should be very safe in a FOWLR with bigger fish. Just $10 for all. Or trade for a peaceful firefish / wrasse / goby. PM me to discuss! Collection in the south west. Thanks. Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
  16. Depends what's your objective of having a refugium. If you research online, there's a lot of debate whether a small refugium is even worth it vs a big one. I recommend watching the below youtube video for more info on refugiums. According to my own experience, i tried using a small HOB breeding box as a refugium for nutrient export on my nano tank (1.5 x 1.2 x 1ft) and growing a small bunch of chaeto inside. Perhaps due to my lighting (just a small LED light), the chaeto grew very slowly and hence didn't create much impact on nutrient export. However, it was a great place for me to grow pods and other micro life. I also used it to acclimatise new livestock or use as temporary storage for corals so i could feed them easier. So to me it did have its uses, just not that great for nutrient export.
