    Algae-like substance in the tubes that connects my tank and the chiller

    Hi Superio,

    I have a 1/5HP Artica chiller and usually servicing is done by the service engineer provided by them.

    I think it is about S$45. Previously I have two free maintenance but now it is charged.

    Anyway for the tubing with black brown algae, it can be ignored as I don't think it is harmful to your tank occupant.

    But if you like to clean them, then I would suggest stuffing some tissue that can be inserted into the tube,

    and push it out by using a stiff hard stick - long enough to push out the tissue from the other end.

    As for the chiller service, if I am not wrong, what the service person did was to take out the cover, and vacuum what ever

    visible cotton like dust out of it, and this make your chiller last longer. Well he suggested every 6 months to do such vacuuming,

    but as for me, likely to be more than that or whenever I am not comfortable with the sight of cotton dust hanging around the chiller

    cover or any opening/ lourves.

    By the way Franklin, I used the email address customerservice@reefdepot.com.sg to communicate with Seet about the problem I have.

    Mine broke it on a Friday nite, and written to them on Saturday and Sunday, Seet got back to me to see him after that on Monday.

    Problem solve by Monday. So in between that time, I can use super glue and glue it back the broken piece.

    Skimmer still works but doesn't look effective.

    Franklin, have you gotten your spare part?

    I had the same situation just two weeks back and I got my replacement done in Reef Depot.

    Look for Mr Seet.

    The spare part is 81140700 if you look into the instruction manual of this Deltec website.

    However, one thing to note is that the Deltec Skimmer has to have the reef depot sticker I think.

    Nonetheless, you can approach Seet and see what he said.

    U just have to keep monitoring and remove all these pest and eggs when you see it. Unfortunately there is currently no dip available in the market that can remove eggs

    Thanks for the reply. I have been doing clearing ever since. Will try some Coral Dip to see how much more combat I have to do.

    Do monitor that pcs of zoas again as it might have eggs and nudis will appear again.

    If I cannot get rid of the eggs what else can I do? I have the same problem with a few bunch of zoas. RODI them for five minutes and wash the zoas under running water already. And find out after a few weeks those nudis still appear.
