  1. I'm currently experimenting with this product to supplement my live rotifer - because unable to increase the volume of my live rotifers.

    Its size seem quite big compared to Reef Nutrition's Roti-feast. So I plan to use Roti-feast for the first few days, then use frozen rotifers when the clown fry grows bigger.

    The other problem is that it is difficult to come by. Does Reborn have the stock now?

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

  2. 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?

  3. 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?

  4. 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.

    :eyebrow:

  5. 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.
