oh.. ok... ya.. i know a lot of fellow reefers using those energy saving lamp... but i wan2 try juz running a small LED into the sump... mine is a nanocube... thus.. i dun wan2 make things look too messy... there's also too little space...

hi all, i juz wan2 ask if any bro is able to keep cheatos using juz those small submersible LED lights? is 5W sufficient? thks

oh... ok thks alot bro... i'll try to source for it...

hi... thks for the advice... do u hav any idea where can i get the ballast n bulbs??

hi all, i was thinking of changin my 13W PL lights in the hood to higher wattage such as 36W... i dont think i can juz buy a 36Wbulb to replace it right? i was wondering how to do this modification and where can i get those lighting equipments... any experts can give me some advices? thks...

hi, hav u run any test of the water? like NH4, NO2, NO3... these r the main tests needed i believed.. the smell of the water is probably caused by large amt of die-off on the lr... juz my opinions.. still learning though..

thks bro for the advice... so i only need this 2 testkits? another question is wat is the required range or level for the Ca n Mg?

hi all, i hav been running a fowlr tank for abt 6 mths... tinking of addin in some mushrooms n zoa... but firstly i wan2 know wat r the tests i need to run? i already hav the NH4, NO2, NO3 and pH testkits.. wat other test kits do i need? thks

hi... its abt 1 ft i guess... i hav some lr in there which i can stack any corals onto them... this would make them shallower..

hi all... do u guys think a 11W PL is sufficient for keepin hammers, bubbles n zoos? tank is v small... a 35L... 1 ft cube...

erm... anyone can help??

hi all, as i'm having a small nano cube.. the lighting provided is only a PL 11W... my tank is 35L... is this light sufficient to keep corals such as zoa, hammer, bubble? seems a little too weak but i hav no experience in changing to another lamp...

yup bro... i hav remove it n stuff the outlet with the black sponge... but will probably change the sponge to filter wool cos its ineffective in preventing bubbles from coming out... anyway... do u i can remove the pump and replace with an airstone? but im not sure if it'll work and dunno the air stone to use..

hi bro.. thks for the advice... actually im already using it... but the space in the sump is so limited...i can only put it on my last compartment... juz above the return pump...this is very inconvenient when i need to take out the cup n discard the skimmate... i was looking for something even smaller to fit into the 2nd compartment nicely... but i cant seems to find any till now...

hi all, i would like to know if anyone is using skimmer for a 12 gal nanocube?(muz be able to close the hood) has been lookin for one for sometime but cant seems to find any... can any experts or users pls give some recommendations? thks..

hi bros... can anyone recommend a small chiller for a nano tank of abt 35 L? was wondering if those TEM type r good enough? was tinking of the dolphin mini chiller... but cant find any reviews on it... hope someone can shed some light on it... thks....

hi bro... i read from an article that the type of starfish prey on prawns? http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/prod_di...&pcatid=572 how true is it? come to tink of it... my cleaner shrimp has gone missing for a day... wonder if its been eaten...

hi bro... thks for the advice... its finally moving abt... after 2 days at the same spot... good to know that it can keep the sand bed clean... that's the main reason im getting it upon recommendation by the lfs...

hi all, can any experts provide me with some info on sand sifter starfish? 1) is it good for keeping sand bed clean? 2) does it move abt or does it stay mostly in one spot? ( mine jus stay at the same spot for 2 days..) 3) is it hardy? can tolerate nitrate between 15-20mg/l? thks....

thks for the advice... anyway... i got the following now... cleaner shrimp x 1 hermit crab x 1 sand shifter star x 1 royal gramma x 1 ( i dun tink its the true royal gramma) currently i hav abt 4 kg of lr in the tank... ya... space is very limited.. but there r still a little space in the sump tank... is it advisable to put some small lr in there? there will be no light in the sump... so is there any goby that u can reccommend? the fire goby? is it good?

thks bros for the reminder.... ya.. i am aware of the water instability in small tank... im trying to fight this prob with WC... currently i change every wk.. does having more lr help to stabilise the water parameters more? also... wat r the goby that i can get? are gobies agressive? i wan2 keep the sand clean...

hi all, i have decided to get the following for my clean up crew... 1) cleaner shrimp x 1 2) hermit crab x 2 3) one of the gobies..x1 4)probably brittle star fish ( will it hurt small fishes?) x 1 any opinion on this set up? can they work tgt or any rivalry amg them? thks...

hi all... thks for the input... first of all i tink i cant use a hang on fuge without throwing the hood rite? secondly, i saw those few links posted by u guys... the idea was great... but i hav no idea how to modify them to be suitable for my nano cube... the main thing is the overflow system.. i dun tink i hav much space to accomodate that rite? i was also tinking of jus growing some chaeto in the sump tank as a form of nitrate export... but im not sure if its feasible... the amt of chaeto i can house in that compartment could be too little.. moreover, its difficult to provide light into those compartment... any more advice from u guys? thanks alot anyway..

hi all, i was tinkin of creating an external refugium for my 35L nano cube... any expert can give me some pointers? heard of ppl using 2 pumps for such purposes... but it doesnt seem feasible as one of the pumps may break down... resulting in flood... any advices?? thks..

no... i dun mean the product itself... i juz wan2 c if there is any product reviews on it...
