  1. my new flame angel has contracted finrot and some fungus growing on the "face". initially it can't swim properly and looks like it's on the way up the lorry. i desperately did 2 FW dips. now it can swim properly but the finrot never get better. the fungus is also still there. i dosed half the recommended dosage of melafix. it says continue dosing everyday for 7 days then WC. i'm wondering if it is too strong and did you dose it one off to cure your gramma?
  2. i got attacked yesterday when i was doing some maintenance.
  3. mind sharing what's the temp like? my tank is about 28 degrees celcuis with a dymax fan, wonder if can do better
  4. finally start to swim, curious and active little fella
  5. yes it is alone. the first fish after months of cycling. my misus told me if the fish die i'm dead, so its quite a nervous time will SOS if anything not right, thanks for the advise bro! cheers!
  6. yeah...i place it directly into my tank. total change of environment for the poor fella, from 622 to 211 wonder if i add more rock will make it feel more at home
  7. sorry for resurrectting this old post. recently my in law passed me his clownfish that he kept for 4 years. it host in this anemone since the day he got it. now it's in my 2 feet tank with a LR. it's hanging out between the overflow box and the tank glass. it hardly swim few inches away from its comfort zone even during feeding. is it a normal behavior? it's eating and have no obvious signs of stress, just not swimming around.
  8. u are right bro, i changed to a from the 1250 to 1262 problem solved. thanks all for the inputs!
  9. my tank is just around 50 litres...so i suppose it should be adequate. i found the exact problem on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yLqdQIo4Zw i was fiddling around the box last evening...i tried to direct the return pipe downwards to reduce the movement on the water surface. overnight the bubbles still build up...but at a slower rate
  10. 1200 l/h how about yours? are you using this skimz overflow box too? or other makes?
  11. my return pump is half of what they recommended anyhow, the LFS also ask me to save money for a drilled tank, i was just stubborn ic...so i'm not alone. any luck in finding this tom aquatics aqua lifter? will it draw air as well as water out of the overflow box?
  12. Hi all, I'm in the midst of setting up my first marine tank. i encountered a problem with my overflow box. i realised when the water flow into the overflow box, small air bubbles were created and trapped in the middle section. everyday i will have to draw out the air via a tube. otherwise the water level in the tank will keep rising. question: is it due to my return pump from the sump is too slow? any innovative ideas to solve this problem? this is how it looks like http://www.skimz.sg/overflow_box/om2500.html Thanks in advance!
