our SEA confirm better than BKK's ... different league

with long algae cleared, time to move out the urchin and let snail do the routine maintenance moved urchin to the sump and fed it with 紫菜 bought from wet market $2 a big pack the urchin accepted .. ha, the tape mark water level

I'm using this. Need low flow to work.

seasoned as in get from supermarket?

besides Madpetz, where else can I get AI prime? better price? pls PM me if got good lobang... thanks

AI prime looks ok ,,, can up another $100 for it .... shortlisted! ... now to look for funding

currently using a budget 6x3W (4 white 3 blue, ard $70) led and 1 blue led (less thann $50) for my slightly larger than 1ft cube nano any recommendation for an upgrade? budget within $200 corals are mushroom, frogspawn, lobo, bubble and richodia. thanks

Can I know where did you get the HS28 and the price of it? have been using the HC100a for few years at first was quite concerned about the electrical cost ... how long it runs and how often it kicks in but over time can't be bothered and electrical bill din really shoot up did not really track the bill different, but if you don't feel pain means is ok

it probably realize the silicon is not for consumption after those little bit

ha, season with sea salt but the urchin maybe more salt-ish

if I want to keep the urchin in the sump... since the algae is now under control, what should I feed it with?

Anyone bought from Eshine store direct?

nano tank,maybe not suitable these fishes

eat into silicon? ... how how how? clean really deep is very true

to those who are desperate with hair algae... try the urchin .

The hermit crab is cute and beautiful but it likes to carve .. yes, carve, on the branch of the frogspawn ... and the cut is deep till the branch turn very weak and break easily so cannot get more of it to help with the cleaning

I think I really is lazy many times wanted to measure the phosphate also never do it just tried to reduce the light on period. I only "target" feed 1 flame goby a few small round ball dry fish food once everyday but I guess is best to have these cleaning crew around to keep the algae in check round the clock

About 1 year back, hair algae problem started in my tank and was having hard time battling Astro snails and hermit crabs could only do a half-hearted job slowly these cleaning crews died and I also giving up. And the hair algae also spread to most of the rocks and even on the glass. one month ago I decided to give another try and got a few Turbo snails and 1 urchin from Ah Beng, plus a small snail from aquamarin. Miracle happened.These guys managed to cleaned up most of the algae and now my tank has a much tidy look with the algae down to an acceptable level. Luckily the urchin did not attack my coralline algae ... for now. In the picture with the hermit crab, the rock on the right was later cover with short green algae. Somehow the cleaning crews love it .. this rock was first to be cleaned up.

will hairy algae turn into turtle weed? Hermit at work ... but this home grown vegetation not very welcome leh ....

if hair algae is a bit long, will snails still eat them?

Is there any aquarium in the east that sell a large varieties of equipment like 328? best is good price and functional, brand not important

not sure if it is a nuisance algae but it does look good I take it as decoration

something like that ... so is called crustose_coralline_algae

yes

is not mushroom cos it is hard and fixed will take another picture with a proper camera and zoom in. in my previous tank, the coralline grow like a rose to the size of a grown man fist after I decom that tank, that coralline "flower" is the only thing I kept ... as usual, after out of water it turned into white
