  7. placing the condenser in the cabinet is not the most ideal.. however, its the only option for me. my home renovations done about 2 years ago did not accomodate aircon piping for the tank. and adding another condenser on our roof is a big add on job. the cooling coils are in the last compartment..and space is the same with or without the presence of condenser. without the condenser would've been extra storage for me. but shorter cooling coils will mean condenser to cooling coils work faster to cool, thus saves time which means save electricity.
  8. does your cleaner shrimp do this? so cute..
  9. thanks bro even in quarantine tank they swim on top. can it be stressed? sure hope its a growing up phase
  10. thank you very much for your comments.. actually i provided a host RBTA but they ignored it in their first 2 months of betta tank. they are eating very well.. will leave them alone then..
  11. thanks vinccc2009.. they are beautiful fishes except for their weird fetish for water surface. they have been bobbing for quite a while. they are other tank mates but none disturb them leh. how to see if the fish is swimming properly or not? tank size is 5 X 2.5 X 1.8 feet tank mates include: archilles tang : about 4 inch chevron tang : about 3.5inch 2 x black tangs: about 6 inch and 3 inch 2 x mandarin fish 2 x hielfrich goby 1 x orchid dotty back 1 x cleaner wrass 1 x cleaner shrimp none of them disturb the clown fishes leh.. i purchased the clown fishes separately but within 2 weeks of each other. due to their small size, i kept them in the betta area (still part of the main tank) for 2 months. but still they usually stay in the surface of water. sometimes they will go down for a while and come up again. they sleep on the surface water every night. on 6th feb 12, i released them into the main tank but they kept staying at the betta area so i chased them out to the other side. and there they stayed. sigh... i tried to use encourage them to go deeper towards the rocks like feeding etc but they rather let the mysis and pellet drop than chase them to the bottom. everynight they will sleep at the corner of the tank at water surface. yes, that is where the return pump is. but they can move.. i tried to chase them downwards towards the rocks but within seconds they are at the surface again. even when feeding time when i lower the wave maker and off the main tank, they also dont want to chase the pellet when they drop to the floor. they still prefer the upper part area. are juvenile clownfishes behaviour like that? these are around 1inch big.
  12. 2 X helfrichi goby from recent shipment.. beautiful fishes :kiss:
  13. i have had this pair of clownfish for about 3 months. the problem is that they do not swim to the rocks and explore the rest of the tank but keep to the surface area all the time. is there a reason? will they swim downwards in time?
  14. this post dedicated to the good people from Iwarna. great people with great service! :friends: :friends: the laminate of one side of the cabinet started to crack from the side one evening. heard a large crackling sound and thought the glass gave way. then realized that the laminate had a hairline crack from where the ventilation hole is.. this is the right side. left side only a bit on same night... then the next night... YIAKS!! :poster_oops: the 2 sides cracks almost symmetrically.. this happened about 10pm at night and victor was on it immediately. he arranged heng to attend to our problem before lunch the next day. we speculated that the hot air from compressor could have expanded the aluminium mesh. however, at the point of time when the crack occured, the compressor wasnt turning and had stopped for sometime already (half hour) cos the water temp was 25.3 and mesh wasnt warm to touch. few days later, heng changed the laminte and made a bigger opening for better ventilation. :goodjob: thank you!
  15. according to reef depot, the skimmer had to 'run in' for 7 ~ 10 days. not sure what to expect from 'running in'... so during the first few days, didnt see much dirt .. began to feel the product is overrated.. then about 2 weeks later.. i getting this everyday.. yucks..
