  1. i do do fresh water bath to my regal angel .

    she can stand until 5 ~ 10 " ( sorryi forgat the actual time ) but surely for her can stand more than 5 " , of'coz the time r more depend on fish and size .

    even some people will do fo 10~15 " for some big fish.

    for blue tang i have no idea :paiseh:

    but what is yours specification of freshwater bath ??

    i mixe 1 saltwater + 9 freshwater = fresh water bath .

    and adjust PH > 8.0 .

    than only proceed freshwater bath :P

  2. Regal

    i bought it at penang ( koay Ent near BJ court ) :D

    RM 65 :P

    sorry i had confuse that r u from penang ??

    jason

    " my regal also got itch before... but after my treatment .......... "

    can u tell me how u do the treatment ? :D

    i heard that regal r sensitive with medicine ???

  3. i do try before, it take time to train for eating .

    i use tetrabits and spectrum ( maker : newlife )

    keep at 2' QT tank with a pcs of LR and a clown fish .

    i just continue using this 2 type of fish food. for the first few days she never eat. i just let the food sink at bottom. but few days later i notice that the fish food sink at bottom r missing. and i just continue do this action. few days later she start eating directly when i put in the fish food :D

    for the begining stage u can try put some macro algae ( look like grape shape ) she will eat the grape ,maybe this action also can help to make her start eating more easy :P

    ps: i heard somebody commend that better to choice the regal angel <4" aboyt 3" is better , more easy to start eating :lol:

    my regal angel r about 4.5 " it total take about 1 week plus only start eating :D

    ps: but finaly due to my tank water quality ( i think due to i just start my QT and only cycle by a clownfish (2" ). >> can not support regal (4.5" ) ) she was sick and finaly sayonara. :angel:

    i keep her about 3~4 months :cry:

  5. for my case.

    tank size 36"x24"x24" 2 hole(1 in, 1 out )

    1" flow out ( hole should be more than 1" for pipe thickness about 1.5" ,depend your conector size )

    1/2 " return (actual size >1/2 " as above mentioned )

    as dr evil san mentioned more bigger surface r better , ;)

    but personaly not prefer DSB for FOT main tank due to big fish may cause DSB problems :D DSB for RT should be better :D

    i would like to suggest u keep 2' high . the view r big diferent compare to 1.5' high.

    u can try to visit any 2' high tank u will feel that like 21" TV compare to 29" TV :D

    2 ' hight r much much better view :P

    ps: but of'coz if for RT u need to consider your lighting system can support for the 2' high or not :angel:

  6. some time ago i do saw a tank runing by this system. but that is RT. and i forgot whether it keep any fish or not.

    personal feeling for this system u can only keep few small small fish only.

    and of'coz u need air pump :P

    but why u want to change your filter system ???

    ps: i am thinking to set up this system for my RT also :P

    to change my sump tank to QT B)

  7. sorry ianjy san,

    can u double confirm the data again. realy

    " salt level still shows between 1.010-1.021.... " ?? :shock:

    1.01 ~ 1.021 r big diferent :ooh:

    if stable at 1.021 i think is OK for FOT. no problems lar.no adjust also ok lar. :P

    if RT better adjust it to 1.022~1.024

  8. sorry not realy know what is leather finger.

    for leather it will do some self cleaning process by generate a milky stuffs. and the stuff will peel off from it after few days. this process can help them do cleaning to itself. for me i won't do anything for it. just let it be. just make sure it have current flow through the leather. :D

    pls double check with others commend ,

    better post some photo see see lar :yeah:

    my original query is that most sites that i researched says that DSB, LR and Skimmers are all I need for FOWLR.

    sorry i am new at here :)

    just information sharing that i heard somebody will not recommend to use DSB for FOT. due to if u keep big fish, may effect the DSB function and cause problems :sick:

    just information sharing. if i am mistake pls correct me :P
