  1. Another attempt at RBTA !!

    It was moving around initially when i first introduced it into the tank and was pretty annoyed by the fact that it has not found a place to rest its footing. And from the looks of it, it seems pretty comfortable with its current position. :yahoo: :yahoo:

    Always wanted to have an anemone because I like to see the special relationship it hase with the clowns. And am also tired of seeing my clown hosting on my goniopora and when the lights are off, the silly fish has a dome shape rock as bed.

    Introduced this anemone for 6 days already. And today this was what I saw...

  2. Was considering whether to get myself a denitrator and was doing a bit of research. Many has claimed it can reduce nitrate significantly but there are also minority mentioning the "difficulty" of kicking it start and the risk of it choking and not forgetting the stability of pH.

    Wanna know who else is also using it and how this equipment is able to improve the water quality. If I were to get a denitrator, what else must i do in order to do it right ?

    People who had given up on a denitrator please share your views and opinions as well.

    What about comparing NP biopellets with denitrator ?

  3. u ever try rolled a plastic netting in to a cylindrical shape n cupped it on it?

    have not... never seen or heard before.

    maybe i shall try it but what kind of netting are u referring to ?

    if i can get a netting. roll it up into a cone shape and attach it to the outflow pipe using cable tie . it might helps ?

  4. u mention the noisy overflow box i am sure can solve this prob..

    maybe u can take a pic of it..

    is a some prob tht can be solve with durso pipes?

    This is how my overflow looks like.

    Washing machine pipe was used to channel the water to sump. outflow diameter is i think 1" each. x 2 .

    I don't think i've enough space for a durso pipe bro. Probably one outflow would suffice but i was kiasu when i was making this tank. Opted for 2 outflows and now the noise is x 2 . lol. any idea on how to improve on it ?

  5. Your overflow piping looks interesting bro. It looks like having 2 outlets. Can share a little on:

    (1) Where do they lead to?

    (2) Any noise problem?

    it is a small box with 2 holes drilled and leads to the sump. noise is unbearable. lol. i will not do this in future !!

    emmanuel!! you have a PBT!!! Beautiful!! :)))) Did I meet you @ Thairun's place the other day or am I mistaken? what a lovely little tank.. and I agree with you.. midas blennies love to belly dance!

    Yeah. I'm the one at thairun's place. The day after i got the zoas from thairun, i went down to CF and got this PBT.Am really happy with this healthy fish and indeed i love this PBT(very handsome). wish it will stay small forever =)

    wasn't feeding for the first 3 days and thankfully, it is feeding happily now =)

    u need to increase the flow on your bottom left.. or u can get a sand bed dweller...

    u broke your urge for rbta ytd lolx.. dun worry its a gd catch.. just becareful of it stunning other corals.

    post #25 is a yuma...

    Bro, the RBTA decided to move !! gosh.. move to a spot where i can't really see it. I thought it was missing this morning. But luckily it resurfaced just now when i came back home. i was really worried where it was when i was at work during the day . heng ah, everything is ok . just that i don't like the position the RBTA is at now.

    I will post a pics of the RBTA later on.
