  1. Yes the DIY Chaetofuge worked quite well, I definitely recommend it for anyone who is running sumpless, or if you want to free up more space in your sump.

    There were only 2 small problems with my build.

    It would have worked better with more light, I reckon a 1.5ft PL or an LED arrangement would have worked much better.

    The second small problem is its quite a hassle to disconnect the FR to harvest chaeto from the FR, so you might want to provision

    for on/off valves when you do this.

  2. Its been an educational 8 months for this tank.

    I don't have the confidence to attempt SPS with this tank, so I will be decommissioning it before I move to something bigger!

    Been dreaming of a shallow rimless tank for the last few months, I think I will sell off everything then start planning shortly! :pirate:

  3. yah can give them a call, if I recall correctly it was around $10 for a bag (by my estimation about 300 - 500g of resin) More than enough to refill 1 Crystal Pro DI cartridge.

    Seems like they superglued the cartridge shut to prevent refilling though, and I don't think using solvents on the cartridge would be a good idea.

    Any bros have managed to refill their crystal pro DI Cartridges care to share how you did it?

  4. Can try Nature Aquarium in Balestier also.

    I've been staring at my expended Crystal pro cartridges to figure out how I can open it non-destructively.

    What system are you using for DI?

  5. The only real issue with using NSW aside from possible pathogens or contamination, is you need to lug it around, for larger tanks its really not practical.

    You need to make sure you maintain water change discipline, which can be a lot harder when you have to

    lug potentially 50kg - 100kg of water around every few weeks or month.

  6. On a really long shot for this forum, anyone want to touch up their fish pictures and tank shots? hehehe

  7. Joes Juice works very well, the aiptasia die and melt within 30 seconds of application.

    I bought mine from AM in Paya Lebar. I did experience some seemingly coincidental coral fatalities in the weeks after I first used it though.

    (Strawberry Coral and Tree branch coral both died mysteriously)

  8. Two prawns were swimming around in the sea. One called Justin and the other called Kristian. The prawns were constantly being harassed and threatened by sharks that inhabited the area. Finally one day Justin said to Kristian, 'I'm fed up with being a prawn; I wish I was a shark, and then I wouldn't have any worries about being eaten.' A large mysterious cod appeared and said, 'Your wish is granted'

    Lo and behold, Justin turned into a shark. Horrified, Kristian immediately swam away, afraid of being eaten by his old mate. Time passed (as it does) and Justin found life as a shark boring and lonely. All his old mates simply swam away whenever he came close to them. Justin didn't realize that his new menacing appearance was the cause of his sad plight. While swimming alone one day he saw the mysterious cod again and he thought perhaps the mysterious fish could change him back into a prawn. He approached the cod and begged to be changed back, and, lo and behold, he found himself turned back into a prawn.

    With tears of joy in his tiny little eyes Justin swam back to his friends and bought them all a cocktail. Looking around the gathering at the reef he realized he couldn't see his old pal. 'Where's Kristian?' he asked.

    'He's at home, still distraught that his best friend changed sides to the enemy & became a shark', came the reply.

    Eager to put things right again and end the mutual pain and torture, he set off to Kristian's abode. As he opened the coral gate, memories came flooding back.

    He banged on the door and shouted, 'It's me, Justin, your old friend, come out and see me again.'

    Kristian replied, 'No way man, you'll eat me. You're now a shark, the enemy, and I'll not be tricked into being your dinner.'

    Justin cried back 'No, I'm not. That was the old me. I've changed..'.........
