    Problems with keeping sps

    in SPS and Advanced Reefkeepers Forum

    Posted

    keep a log of the parameters and identify which one is fluctuating and try to keep them constant. one reading is just a snapshot of the parameters at one single point of time. what i learnt about sps is that they do not like big swings and changes in parameters. If you want to raise Mg, raise it slowly. I prefer to do it with a dosing pump so that I won't forget to dose. Realise your calcium level is a bit low too.

    you can feed them the marine algae if the brown diatom ever runs out. but i would take care of water quality first to keep the corals happy. at that kind of levels I might start worrying for the fish too actually. the copepods are thriving in there because you have essentially created a refugium. i wouldn't worry about their survival. they seem to thrive wherever they are isolated from predators (fish).

    WTS: Homemade frozen food

    in Sell off/Pasar Malam Shop

    Made some homemade food over the weekend and realised I've made too much. It's taking too much space in the freezer, so im putting the excess on sale. So far it has got my picky Majestic Angel eating, the rest of the fishes grab whatever their mouth can fit. So I guess the response is pretty good.

    I believe you should know what you put in your tank, so here's the ingredient list.

    1. Fresh fish

    2. Fresh prawns

    3. Fresh squids

    4. Fresh mussels

    5. BSD arctic copepods

    6. AlgaGen coral smoothie (Oyster delight)

    7. Nori

    8. Spirulina

    9. Selcon

    10. Garlic

    Sand dollars in reef tank?

    in General Reefkeeping_

    Posted

    Hi all. Want to find out if anyone kept sand dollars in their reef tank for extended period of time? Im looking at getting one to stir and clean my sandbed a bit. But search online and find that many people do not recommend that as theres lack of food in our sand bed for them. Additonally, they also eats beneficial organisms in the sand bed. What's ur experience witg them?
