Hi guys, Is it suitable to place in a Hydor Wave Maker into my 2FT Tank (with mild sand bed)? I have placed this guy since yesterday night and found two casulties this morning, sticking to the side of the wavemaker. Is it due to the initial wave-making process, these casualties died? Also I notice, other 3 fishes (mainly are clowns) are not eating as per normal....just wondering, is it due to this wave maker? Content of my 2FT Tank:- 1 x clearnr shrimp 4 x anemones 3 x clowns 1 x yellow watchman gorby 2 x fire gorby (just put in yesterday) 2 x tube worms 2 x turbo snails 4kg of live rock Hopefully tonight the rest of fishes are still alive..I will post a picture over here tomorrow too..but now, I need to know is, is it not advisable to have a wave-maker to be placed in a 2FT marine tank???? Thanks...

Just get this brand "LIFE" from NTUC...each 1.5litre of di water only costs you 87 cents and during last month, they were selling 2 bottles for 97 cents

Bro, why not? I think it only opened at 130pm..I shall see you at around 1.45pm? Ok for you? I be wearing black polo Tee... By the way, those water which is in my tank are salt water liao which I bought from one of the fish farm...only thing now I think I am lacking are live rocks ba..and my water slight low, cos not up to the filter outflow marking...that's why it created lots of air bubbles... See you!

Bro, Yes, he do. In fact he is one of the pioneer in this forum. In fact he did tell me, try out with these 6 fishes and observe for a while... What u mean by SG level ar? Btw, u have msn or skype? My msn: raylinea@msn.com

Hi guys, Thanks lot for your advice...in fact I have just upgraded to a 2FT Tank over the weekend. My cousin brought me to Pasir Ris Farmway for an orientation trip and indeed, it was an eye-opener for me, as a noob.... I bought 6 fishes but as of today, it only left with three...it seems that my anemone is the culprit to cause their death..or is it still water problem (which I bought salt water directly from the famr)? Haiz.... I also realise some fishes are tend to act like commando and they really "Cheong" for the food..and my purple fish seems to be bit slower..and since this morning, he is feeling not well and lying on the sand bed...i really wonder what went wrong...

Bro, Yes..that's the only filter which I am using....I am thinking to get one small hanging type to put it at the left side of the tank...is it advisable?

Bro, Yup, our office is located at Temple Street. Me and my kakis will have lunch everyday at the Chinatown hawker and 101% will definitely walk over to Wong Lai Kee (that fishshop across the hawker center) and you will see us between 1.45pm to 2.15pm..everyday...think we shld get a vIP card liao Nop, I stay at Redhill..why I landed at Jireh is after one full day of marine fish hunting (From LCK to PCK to qianhu) on one particular sat afternoon..until too shak liao...then also dun wish to waste the trip (imagine after 3 hours and u still empty handed), so i just grab the 2 sea horses.. Hope to see u soon at the Fish Shop...

Think the Chinatown one still alright...the one which I felt is selling on the high side is from Clementi Blk 505 (Jireh Aquarium), which sold me one sea horse for $35

The one I normally go is near to Chinatown Hawker Center as my office sis just opposite Chinatown. But I bought sea-horses from Jireh..thats why I felt that I kena "ko tok"...

Hi solo77 bro, Thanks for your advice...ya, definitely I need to hear all the senior advices..this is one main reason why I join this forum...I guess for now, the only option left for me is to let the water cycle with some live rocks. But again, what should I take note and when is the right time to place in the fishes... Btw, when u guys mentioned live stocks..is it referring to fishes? Paiseh...another noob question... Thanks

Hi Bro, Is it advisable to get a pump for such a small tank? My lamp are pretty small..I wonder where can I get such blue or marine bulb? How often I need to do a water change? Thanks..

Hi Bro, Ya, I fully agree and it was my mistake that without proper education and I just jump into it. Because there was one day I walked into an aquarium shop and I did see some small nano setup and it was pretty impressive. So I just asked the owner and she told me the procedure in setting up. As for sea-horses, I never really know that they behave in this way...haiz...heart pain is not so much on the 70 bucks..but it was a pity that they died in my hand (without proper caring) I don't have a skimmer as my tank is pretty small. Although it is 35cm in length, but the depth is only approx 17cm. If I am going to intro in a skimmer, i might face with a space contraint issue... Sad to say, I never did any measure on NO2, NO3, Amonia... As for Anemone, it moves away from the rock (this morning) and landed on the sea-bed. Do we need to feed the anemone? One noob question, will Hermit crab kill any of my fishes? Reason is my mum keep blaming me by putting in the hermit crab and killed all the fishes..she demand me to smash the shell and kill the crab. But, I believe when the crab trying to "chew" on the clown fish, it was already dying..and lying on the sand bed (as I never witness how it died actually)...pardon me if I am wrong?

Hi everyone, I am very new to this club and consider myself a noob. All this while, I thought that by having good level of salt water and some fishes in a tank, it should work..but i was wrong... I have just set up my small marine tank (35cm x 14cm) 2 weeks ago. Initially there was some live rocks. Then I started to put in two sea horses ( 1 week ago), 2 clown fishes, 1 blue tang, 1 yellow fin, 1 hermit crab, 1 cleaner shrimp & 1 anemone (Last Friday). Sad to say, all of them has died this evening except hermit crab and cleaner shrimp (anemone still surviving).... I am really puzzled..what went wrong? The fishes did eat and was swimming pretty lively over the weeknd and they just RIP at the same time...not to mention the high cost which I paid for the two sea horses ($70 bucks bot at Jireh Clementi) Is it because of I have never cycle long enough for my tank? If so, how should I make sure that my water is stable enough before putting in the fishes? Note: What you are seeing here...is already history..all fishes have R.I.P...:-( Regards, Andy
