  3. My anemone that host a maroon clownfish is dying

    n I have no choice but to throw it away before it becomes poisonous.

    Now my clownfish is furious. It refused to eat,behaves

    eratically n even uproot a small toadstool that I placed

    near the place where the anemone reside.

    Anyone know where can I find a small fake anemone

    that is realistically enough to appease him?

  4. Hi Bro Cedricang,

    My filefish passed away 2 days ago as I expected.The only cheap acropora coral that i have is not enough to feed

    it and it refused to take any other food i i gave. LFS said it is an ok fish to keep. Next time cannot believe them.

    Have to read up first.

    Thanks for the reservation. Pls pm me the location to collect.

  5. if you have yellow wrasse, no issue to add 6 lines....but once your six line added and established itself....adding other wrasse and small fishes might be a problem....event some tame big fish can stress and attack by it....nevertheless, a police in 24 hrs patrol to control nudi, etc.

    Cool, will take that in mind when getting the 6 line. Just afraid that sometimes i may like other

    small peaceful fishes and add in after 6 line.

  6. I'm not sure if LFS have them in stock, coz demand for it is low. you can always call to check. If they don't carry them, can always place an order with them. Should arrive within 1 month. Check out our sponsors :) Up to you which LFS you support.

    price available online.

    Read somewhere down this forum that a skimmer

    is useless for 2 ft n smaller tank. A weekly

    10% water change suffice. Now I m confuse . Shod

    I really need a skimmer if I do a weekly

    water change. If I use a skimmer, how long

    can I delay the 10% water change?

  7. You're probably looking at the Tunze 9000 series DOC skimmers as these are in tank skimmers. I would actually prefer the HOB skimmers as they are usually much more efficient than the in tank skimmers. Also, most in tank skimmers need a very constant water level which you may not be able to achieve. Another thing to take note of is the filter that comes with your nano tank. Does it have sufficient space for you to put in at least bio rings and Pura Complete? If not, you might have to consider getting another filter too.

    Thks a lot. If the boyu does not work well, i probably look at those skimmer u recommend. Hopefully,

    it is not too expensive.

  8. Not too sure how your Baoyu (Boyu???) skimmer works. I did see a Boyu protein skimmer at C328 but was really not impressed by it. A $20 protein skimmer to be very frank will not be able to skim anything much from your tank.

    Water level should be above the pump because the pump needs to pump water into the reaction chamber of the skimmer. The foam should flow into the collection cup. You will have to monitor the collection cup to make sure that the skim mate does not overflow into your tank.

    Thanks Peter. Yup, its Boyu (typo error). What skimmer would you recommend for JBJ 24 nano tank with tank hood?

    If the foam keep flowing into the cup all the time, it would definitely overflow into the tank in no time at all. Does it mean

    that the foam only flow into the cup once a while and not most of the time so that you have time a least once a day to

    empty yr cup?

  9. What is your budget for the skimmer? As you might already know, a skimmer is one of the core components of a reef tank and you should not skimp on it; so don't go for the really cheap ones like boyu. FYI, the weipro range of skimmers need to be paired up with high end pumps like aquabee to perform at their best.

    Aquamarin and www.freshnmarine.com.sg stocks the high end brands like tzune, deltec and skimz. (~$600?)

    If you are looking at a lower price range (~$150- 300), you can try brands such as reef octopus and dymax. Reborn stocks reef octopus and dymax is sold in C328.

    There are various models of protein skimmers within each brand; you will want to consider an in-sump skimmer if you have a sump. If you don't, you can get a recirculating one or hang on back. You will also need to consider what you are keeping in your tank and if space (for a recirculating skimmer) is an issue. None of us can advise you if we don't know what is in your tank!

    The people at the fish shop should also be able to tell you what skimmer would be the best for your tank.

    Hi, I would like to get some advice too.My tank is currently a JBJ 24 g nano cube. What is the good protein skimmer for this tank.I just bought a Baoyu skimmer (about $20) and am not sure how it work. I was told the water level shld

    be anywhere above the pump but below the collection cup

    Just a question-Should the foam flow out to the collection cup. If it flow out, won't it flood the collection cup and overflow

    out of the cup?

    If it doesn't flow into the cup,how does the waste get collected? Maybe it's a silly question.
