Marine Life Hobbielist at Hong Leong Garden shopping centre. Exact address is found at the sponsors website. Open from 12pm to 8pm. Owner is Henry. Last visit yesterday, i see only 3 mandarins left. One sick. Not all will eat the henry's gourmet but worth a try. My yellow target mandarin still do not want to eat yet. Good luck!

Foam needs to come out of the chamber into the collection cup. That is correct. But if the collection cup spills over, that is wrong. Either u skimmer is placed too low or otherwise. The wheel is likely the air valve to control level.

Is it true coral banded kills cleaner?? I heard some say they are ok some say they are devils. I have just added a coral banded to a tank with cleaner... Getting worried. It was smaller than cleaner but just moulted and now about the same size.

Just for your info, u can get a lot of info on nano tank without skimmer on nanoreef.com An amazing example is linked here. http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=133238 Their nano reef of the month is also without skimmer. Not sure if anyone have replicated the success here. The trick seems to be constant water change, top up and keeping hardy stuff. Getting natural sea water is cheap and convenient for water change if u have transport. Iwarna (pasir ris farmway) sells it for $1 per 10 litre bag. Pacific Reef for $1.5. Have checked on reef depot sea water. Cheaper than buying distilled water and mixing marine salt which i did when i set up my RSM. Pacific reef recently has really cool stuff like nudibranch, frogfish, beautiful mantis, coral catshark, pom pom crab etc etc. Worth a visit. AM got interesting live sand u can consider. ML just leong some corals. Good luck and keep us updated.

Hi, I am totally new to marine aquarium setup. I intend to have a marine tank of dimension of 1m x 45cm x 45 cm built into a full height cabinet. What essentials, recommendations and cost am I looking at assuming that the cabinet is already taken care by the ID. I would like to consider anemone, anemone fish, clams, blue surgeon fish, cleaner shrimp and some soft corals in mid term for the tank. Importantly, I would the experts here to recommend the most cost effective setup and with emphasis on low maintenance. I have a 3-4k budget excluding the cabinet cost. Thanks guys.
