  1. the 8W bulb seems ok if promising can go for 12W, the highest for E14
  2. actually besides its color, I also hope that it can stay in the open so that true clown can find a house can share how much is one?
  3. very colourful and small enough anyone keeping this? will it become a headache like stinging others or keep moving around? what's the biggest problem in keeping typically how much does it cost?
  4. sump design a bit wrong..sigh... flow is at the bottom... dunoe the chaeto on top can get sufficient nutrient boh
  5. noticed you also put the coco worm upright wonder is this the natural posture i noticed from my tubeworm that if the positioning they no shiok, they will come out from the tube but coco worm usually tube is straight so put horizontal also kinda weird
  6. is unlikely to forgo phos removal for the sake of chaeto ... cos removal helps to remove silicate as well not using nitrate removal yet so far the chaeto still holding ..no pale-ing or rotting or breaking up ... just that growth seems slow..or perhaps too kangcheong now just let it be and see how it goes
  7. gona get intoxicated again with coco but scare to see its crown drop off
  8. sounds like coco if it is hard tube then $10 sound very CHEAP can share where did you get it last time coco used to be ard at least more than $20
  9. this diatom thingy really is endless fight thought it was kept at bay then comes green alage but for the sake of a nice tank .. worth the trouble for regular maintenance
  10. maybe can add one turbo or astrea snail to ease your itch that's what I did. ... may not be a recommended practice liverock already in? dose bacteria additives to boost bacteria growth to control phosphate and silicate that support your brown alage growth, for a simple quick fix, you can get seachem phosguard and put in a filter bag at a high flow area ... e.g. can get from AM, phosgauard 250ml + bag ard $12 or less. If you ok with fluidized reactor with rowaphos, then by all means.
  11. size with tube? ....can show pic? most expensive last time bought is $8 ... now manage to get at $4 but slightly smaller
  12. cool white after change to shinning from top .... saw 1 break-off 1cm keep fingers cross just changed to 8W
  13. $10??? which lfs? carrot head liao $1 - normal white/brown/black $4 - mix of purple/off white/light yellow ... nicer got smaller yellow and pink and tiger stripe (?) .. also a few $ nia
  14. bought a yellow tubeworm but it a a very long tube behind half seems "expired" liao Can I cut it away?
  15. true clown kinda short of a few black stripe
  16. looks like my $6.90 5W Philis bulb may be ok chaeto is holding well .... maybe should increase to 8W
  17. throw in a market prawn or frozen mysis and wait for nitrate to increase get a bottle of brightwell microbacter7 to speed up cycling read the cycling thread .... try to do the bare minimum ba understand the eager-ness to start adding fish and coral ASAP but learn to be patience ba while waiting can research into what good stuff/equipment to buy ... time will pass very fast you can start adding the first fish on Christmas eve :lol:
  18. just attach the file direct to the Reply attachment or simply cut & paste with paint brush and save as jpg can liao ma ... then attach
  19. dont expect BLACK teh-O color good enough
  20. remember to handle melafix with care... wear glove and wash hand after use ... as a precaution I dose only half the required amount
  21. dont know how harmful to LS but definitely harmful to the look of a clean tank
