  1. i know of one reefer who have very stunning sps uses only those cheapo skimmer but his overall husbandry is good thus his sps still flourish like wild fire.
  2. Wait for the result http://glassbox-design.com/2010/acropora-c...w-led-aquarium/
  3. wow nice wrasse leh.. looking at this and googling wrasse makes me want to start a wrasse tank just like my evil twn...
  4. debelius fairy wrasse?Cirrhilabrus Adornatus.
  5. Pseudocheilinus ocellatus,Cirrhilabrus spp
  6. my view on skimmer. tried the few skimmer - beckett its a work horse and definitely can churn out lots of skimmate but on the down side, its consume lots of electricity. Please be green and change to a energy efficient skimmer deltec 851 which is consider a very decent skimmer and its very user friendly. Cons.. nosiy. Hns my 2 aquabee pump its consider one of the best skimmer i got but its an unfair comparison with deltec, its meant for 1600L tank and yes, its become very noisy and i got it replace with Reef octupus xp2000 cone. Yes i love the controls for the finner bubbles for my hns skimmer. allow u to control the bubbles, water flow and yes i can get very nice skimmate. Xp2000 reef octopus cone, its not as quiet as the vendor claim, fairly cheap but maybe too much turbulence and the skimmate wise.. well cant comment much as my tank only have one cardinal. If you really want to know what is a good skimmer. u can try to google or read up mojo skimmer review @ rc. In SG, we have very limited skimmer brand around, no i-tec, no atb and no alpha cone. my humble conclusion for skimmer is long reacton time for the bubbles and YES same wth jack, the finer bubbles the better.
  7. My xp2000 cone from Reef octopus is performing well so far.. srry to dilute..
  8. with a dedicated area for WC and maintenance, reefing can be a breeze.
  9. keep for me first lah. my chiller not ready and don know if water okay for my coral.will play with some cheap coral first... my friend rics is like ten cent coin in my tank loh. see liao also heart pain
  10. i am starting to wonder are we gay or what. cabinet same color, tank maker same...skimmer also say manufacturer. mine is reef oct xp2000 yours is 5000. and now your wavemaker also same orientation. did u spy on me or not? any dry fish on the floor?
  11. i don think we should worry abt gas exchange as our skimmer will provide sufficient aeration to the water but yes the ripple effect is good but 2 of my tunze is non directional de. 6100 (old generation) and my tank is rimless thus don want water spilling out from my tank.
  12. Bare buttom is very Nice and maintenance friendly for SPS. However i think i am not into this too clean concept as it look abit too fake for me. i rather do my bi weekly maintenance of cleaning the crushed coral bed with ehiem substrate cleaner..
  13. yes its crushed coral. how i hope i got bigger grains as my tunze still open up holes on the substrate bed. i cant use those fine sand as the tunzes and waver maker will create a sand storm.
  14. this is a gift from someone.. so used loh.. well i find that the diff between the is +/1 0.001. i got 1.021 from refractometer.
  15. Not big business lah. infact i am too lazy to do much.. too lazy to test the nitrate... here the salinity reading 1.020 the suitable salinity should be 1.025 but i failed to plan well thus used up my salt in the WC and thus to wait till my h20 evaporate and get myself new bucket of salt for the next wc.
  16. further update new aquascape to test the flow of the wavemaker 6105 and two 6100 I have a flow problem. too much flow. Flow with 3 tunze and ehiem 1262 A turbulence caused by 3 tunzes, 1262 and Ocean Runner 6500. The water is just 1/2 inch away the rim And yes, i have to look into cable management. Can get a separate shelve to house the wire hoping to change this into this And yes, my toy.. unsetup toy.. And my first member of the tank, potter angel whom is not eating.
