  1. Hi bro, just to feedback that there's too many fish in a tank that size, so the risk of fish getting sick is very high as they will feel stressed. I would say 5 small fish is the max number you can go. Also, ribbon eels are notorious for being very difficult to care for. You may wish to use this site to reference how many fish to keep for your tank size. It helps calculate compatibility etc. http://www.marinecompatibilityguide.com Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk
  2. It's a good idea but only for people who need to see and test equipment before buying. Sometimes you can't do that when buying off others because everyone has a different style. Some treat other hobbyist as customers, some treat as friends, others don't have time to entertain. But tanks will be a problem due to storage issues. Maybe just limit to portable equipment Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

    Wtg live rocks

    Many fast hand fast leg bros. Apologies to those who i didn't reply. Will update again if any left over. Thanks
  5. Planning a major overhaul of my tanks, so giving away live rocks to clear space. Have enough to fill 2 x 2ft tanks. Sample below. Also have some sand if you want. Deal either in woodlands area or clementi area, or nearby these places. Pm for details please. Thanks! Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk

  7. Wah very nice gesture bro. Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk
  8. Thanks bro, I hope so too! Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk
  9. Haha, I think most of is are guilty of this. My most unnecessary purchase was a rotary wave making device (I don't even know what it's called!) from one of the friendly bros here. Basically I was very enthusiastic to ensure my tank had lots of irregular flow like the real ocean, so I bought this device that is supposed to attach to your pump, then it would swing left to right in an arc to ensure your pump blows in many different directions. But in the end, alamak! It's so big and my tank so small that I couldn't deploy it at all. Just settled for an rw4 with alternating mode to create water current instead lol.

  10. Make sure you cover the tank, they like to jump if scared, especially during the first few days. If belly was fat at time of purchase it should be able to last about a week without food so give it time to get used to its new home Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
  11. Can't really tell from the pic. Do you have a pic under normal light? Looks like green star polyps but I can't be sure Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk
  12. Hi all, saying knows of this cute macroalgae? It came out of nowhere. Thanks Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk
  13. Another thing to note, I do all my seeding/transfers etc with rock fully submerged in current tank water to minimise die off of bacteria. I try to use minimal new water in the new tank as I'm unsure of the change in water chemistry will shock the bacteria. Also I do it as fast as possible. I have 2 battery operated air pumps in my car at all times to circulate water in such events. Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk
  14. As a lazy reefer, I actually regularly use my live rock to seed other rock, media and sand and use as backup for the few times that I set up new tanks or transfered tanks. So far I haven't had any disasters EXCEPT nitrate spikes due to disturbance of the sand bed. The anaerobic bacteria will die immediately upon being exposed to oxygen.

  16. Forgot to mention that I also target feed Reef Roids so that the very tiny polyps have a chance to eat... Mysis too big for them and plankton just washes away, cannot tell if they ate it. Just keep feeding and hope for the best. Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk
  17. Hi bro, I'm ashamed to say that I didn't manage to keep my suns that healthy for long. The normal suns eventually disintegrated no matter what I did. The Super suns are faring much better, but not as fat as before. I keep dosing plankton and also target feed with mysis every few days, but don't see much growth and not all polyps stay open. I suspect they really need A LOT of food and good water parameters to be really healthy. Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk
  18. Hi bro, I got mine from q0010, about 40 plus depending on what accessories you add on. Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk
  19. Wah bro, I bought the same ip cam for the same reason but haven't set it up cos dunno where to place it for a good angle. You bought from the online December sales right?? Haha Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk
  20. Hi bro, that sounds ok already in my opinion. I use a small 5 gallon for quarantine also. I don't use cooling as well, so far it seems ok. Ambient temperature is about 29 degrees. Some reefers recommend at least a 2 feet tank but if your fish are small, should be no issue. Try to house at least 2 months, most parasites will show themselves within that period. I have copper medication on standby but so far never needed to use it Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
  21. Yup, I dosed seachem straight into the tank. So far no issues, my inverts doing OK I think. My fish don't care. Thanks for the advice, people Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
  22. Hi bros, I just did 10% water change with tap water and salt mix and blur blur forgot to dechlorinate the water before i dumped it into my tank. Panicking now. I actually made this mistake with my freshwater tanks before but nothing bad happened. Not so sure for my reef tank though. Should i be worried??
  23. Hi bro, I think you replied to the wrong thread, I'm not offering leather coral Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk
  24. Hi all, in my continuing effort to downsize, want to let go of my ocellaris clown pair plus one yellow tail damsel. They get along quite well and eat anything. Please pm me if you have anything to trade for them, like some other cheap livestock or something. Thanks. Disclaimer: I need to catch them first so might not be able to deal immediately. http://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/584698b3ba8ae/_20161206_185325.JPG Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk
  25. Wah. Quite bad condition. You can try to save but I don't know how, my open brain also looked like that before it up lorry. I only saved bleached corals before Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk
