  2. Anyone seen yellow wrasse, around 2 to 2.5 inche? Looking for one to protect my zoas......hopefully.... Gotten a green wrasse but think with another yellow wrasse, it will be better. Any recommendation for useful wrasse apart from yellow(got a 6 line but a terror, caught him and quarantine him. Lol). Thanks inadvance.

  6. Hi Bro, Is there any budget? Maybe you can check with the shop where you bought the tank. If not, really must get experience from reefers here. Nevertheless, you may wish to buy a chiller that is slightly overkill. Reason being it will definitely cool your tank faster, hence may contribute to saving electricity. Also, it may allow future upgrade of tank. For the pump, it will tie to the chiller. The specification of the chiller will state the recommended flow rate. Too fast not effective and too slow no efficient. Also, just make sure the return does not create turbulent in your tank. All the best.
  7. Hi Tagie, Sorry for the late reply. I dont have internet access at home, so cannot revert to you. I stay in sengkang. North East is also near East. Lol. I certainly hope i can help you but beware of my advice as i am a newbie. Hehe. Think it is good to meet up senior reefers to understand more from them. If you need help, can always pm me or arrange to meet at fish shops. However, as a married man....time is not within my control....wahahaha....Nevertheless, i will usually cycle to pasir ris farm on sunday or saturday morning, say around 8 am. Hehe....think ppl will think i am crazy....hehe. Anyway, i will pm you my number. Later, i might drop by reef depot at shunfu side(thomson area) or go Aquamarin side for dinner. Do inform me if you are interested. : )
  8. usually place in the sump with light and flow to allow the chaeto to reduce NO level in the water. Hope i am right. Never try before but you must have the space. Seek for correction. Thanks.
  9. Ops....open from 12 to 8pm but not everyday the same timing. Hence, call to check. : )
  10. U new meh....lol...joined longer than me....lol....u stay at simei right....still searching for your tank huh.... For ML, the boss is henry. Opens around 2 pm but at times due to assignment, he might open slightly later. The address is 178 Hong Leong Garden SC, West Coast way. The number to call is 6777 4047. The boss is henry. The shop is a small setup but he does have the knowledge. However, so far i have not seen any tank for sale there. If you going by MRT, can visit clement 328(hope i get the blk right) and from there, you can walk to Jireh(got tank for sale there) and from there to ML.....for me...no car but got ka...just walk....hehehe.....All the best.
  11. U working tomorrow? Me on leave. Might go farm. U interested........err..but i might be going pasir ris side.....you can. Alternatively, you can go to Marine Life near clementi and chat with him....hehe...
  12. Hi Bro, Welcome on board. 2 ways to see things. Agrees that it is good if you have the budget to spend on high end equipment initially rather than upgrade in future. However, the other side is, if the interest is short - span, money always wasted. Lol. Since you have a budget, do lookout for second-hand setup. Think there are a number of sellers trying to sell off 2ft tank with setup. Please note the thickness and dimension of the tank. The thicker, the better...lol....dimension will depend on your space - 2ft by 2ft by 2ft is good. Other than that, it might have space constraint and lack of depth. Also look out for canister or sump filter setup(sump filter better). Then look for lighting, skimmer, chiller(if you intend to keep corals), test kit - parameters such as pH, NO, PO, SG, etc. Big tank is more stable as compared to small tank but if you are hardworking, no problem. hehe. The other option is go for nano tank setup. All in one small tank, except for the chiller. One popular tank is the Red Sea Max but there are always positive vs negative feedback. In a nutshell, you have to decide the following: Keep Fish only or Mixed Tank Size Decoration - Rock and sand or just rock(types also) Filter System - sump, canister, bio, etc Skimmer - Type Lighting Test Kit Chiller? Power Points Cabinet FR - PO or Carbon, UV, Ozoniser - Good to have Accessories.. Food Shopping for fishes and coral.... err...based on my experience....may have omitted some.....just went through....lol....sometime it is good to find someone to talk rather than reading ...just cant seem to get into brain or understand them...wahahaha....where do you stay....maybe can help you and invite to go fish farm shopping....lol...then u will understand more....hehe
  13. Dear reefers, Had a thought to create a directory to gather all reefers in Northeast or east area. As i am a newbie, not sure if there is an existing directory, if yes, please enlighten me. With this directory, hope it can help fellow reefer who is in trouble due to faulty equipment to temporarily seek help from nearby reefers or temporarily seek FOC "hotel" to house their LS. Of course, there are many helpful reefers who are not staying nearby but willing to help also but there is a chinese saying "Far Water Cannot Put Off Near Fire".....lol.... Just my funny idea. Might not work. Anyway, to start the list rolling: Solo77(Likely to shift to Punggol, Coralinus by end of this year or early to mid next year) Sengkang Rivervale Drive Blk 188C
  14. Currently has 2 DIY and a type 2 Solite. Looking to get one set with 4 tubes. Might consider DIYing. If you have the parts like endcap, etc, do pm me. Thanks.
  15. Upz for the seller. Rocks are in nice shape and fishes are healthy and eating, especially the neon gobies....hehe.
  16. Support. $60 for a nice octo. : )
  17. Forgot to add...adding new fish....there are also recommended ways to prevent bringing exiting diseases from the fish u bought to your tank.....read thr the forum. One method is fresh water dip.....but at your own risk....hehe....also...the water that comes with the fish, some will advice not to pour into the main tank....as the water might contain copper when fish shop treated the fish......
