Leave the skimmer on. You don't want to end up with a phosphate laden tank.

bro thanks for the fast reply. i will start my skimmer now than. but turning on the skimmer will it cause my biological filtration to failed? currently my ammonia is 0.25 , nitrite 0.

[Am i on the right track?]

Hi guys are skimmer to be on during cycle ?? cos i read up alot of different opinion on whether to have the skimmer on.

[NSW can keep for how long???]

Wat do u mean by oxygen ball?

Catch no ball...

If u r refering to those air stone that connect to air tube then air pump,the answer is Yes.(like wat lemon said)

but if u r refering to those oxygen tank then answer is No No.

im talking abt those colourful ball which usually they use it for fresh water fishes. heres a link http://www.watergelball.com/ProductShow.asp?ArticleID=123

[NSW can keep for how long???]

Ya min must have air pump. Notice reborn shop their water drum inside sure got air stone for the water

just curious can we put in those oxygen ball for the NSW ? other than a pump??

[Am i on the right track?]

yah i have used bacteria start up to help with my cycling process

now my ammonia level is actually 0.25 and nitrite is 0 hope can be ready by this wed.

[Chaeto giveaway]

pmed you

[Am i on the right track?]

Giesemann t5 is a good choice as it offers an option to add corals if you so decide at a later stage. Only setback is that it is of higher wattage.

icic still cant make up my mind should i get a better light due to budget constrain .

Anyway the prawn have decomposed and i also have added Top Up from iwarna to stimulate my caroline algae growth. i also discovered there are white hairy stuff that actually sticking on my LR . Are those hair Algae??

[Am i on the right track?]

Hi abit off track here

i'm thinking of getting a light set for my tank but with about 100 dollars of budget which light set u guys recommend ?? i'll be doing a FWOLR tank.

saw a reefer bro selling Giesemann t5 at $1x0 . is it ok to buy it ? need advise....

[Am i on the right track?]

yup

i dont think i will be adding any coral for my tank as myp lan for this tank will be Fish with live rock only tank.

i read up a bit on adding fishes into the tank.they were saying max of 2 fishes is advisable to add into the tank due to not to upset the bio load too sudden what you guys think??

for me i think i'll be adding a boxer shrimp and a yellow watchman goby into the tank first.

[Am i on the right track?]

Woah 3 months?! Haha its gonna be a long wait but it'll be all worth while if you know all the fishes living in a heathy n happy environment....

[Am i on the right track?]

woot Cool . was wondering am i on the right track. now all i need to do is wait.

Thank you guys!!!

[Am i on the right track?]

You can wait for the prawn to decompose fully. And be patient, you're only at the initial cycling stage.

so basically i can say that im on the right track ?? all i need to do is wait till the amonnia n nitrate turns 0 isnt it?

[Am i on the right track?]

Hi reefer bros,

i just tested my water with Red sea marine Lab test kit and my ammonia (NH3) was at 1.0 and my Nitrite (NO2) is at 0.2 and my Nitrate (NO3) was at 10ppm

my market prawn has not been totally decomposed do i remove it now or i will wait for the prawn to be decomposed totally???

am i on the right track of cycling ??

[SG 1.019 is it ok?]

Oops.. typo

Should be High Temp = Low SG

Sorry...

hi CFoh bro

currently im in my 3rd day of cycling process so there isnt any live stock in my tank now. i just added the salt mix slowly increasing my SG now curretnly its at 1.020.

Thank you all for the advise. Really appreciate it.

[SG 1.019 is it ok?]

During cycling if your SG is low, just top up with salt water to bring it back to normal specific gravity of 1.025

No need to re-cycle your tank. Cycling is the period where errors are better of made than when cycling is over.

how low is low exactly?

its at 1.018 . or is it consider ok?

[SG 1.019 is it ok?]

Hi all ,

i am also very new here , if let say in the event of cycling i discover that my SG are low if i do a water change will it be ok or i actually need to recycle it again/?

[Proper Cycling]

yah i have just switch from charcoal to activated carbon . so i hope my cycling will be done soon .. lol read up a lot on fishes super eager to put them in to my tank... but have to wait...
