  1. So to say, cannister is not a good form of filtering tools for a.marine tank?

    What if a tank i have does not have any holes for piping to sump? How to do this?

    U can find a tank maker to do this or u can find someone who knows plumbing to do it. But the easier way to go to Tank maker to custom make your own design or purchase a ready made model thats comes with cabinet and sump.

  2. hi,just bought my tank after three months of saving, researching, and waiting for my PSLE to end from the pasar malam(very cheap and only 8 months old! :) )pictures will post later, so stay tuned! :)

    Wow, what a young reefer? Will be waiting to see your tank pics. :phone:

  3. Bro, I got the same experience like u! I brought 3 pratas from GO also like your case. First it opened very heathly for two weeks then stressed like yours, two of it died and one of it manage to survie till now( 4mths). I brought numbers of pratas from them won't last. And it not cheap

    Mine is only recently after i changed to LED lights and also due to insufficient calcium. These pratas think with me for 1-2 years liao. Sad leh. :(

  4. What is your nitrate level???........... u have fishes in the tank???.........I would move the pratas temporarily on the rocks first.........

    My experience with prara is :-

    1) it is pretty sensitive to nitrates..........my prata used to not open when Nitrates is high........

    2) My prata died when my chiller broke down while I am in Taiwan.........temperature shot from 25 Deg C to 31.4 Deg C.........it literally melt........anyway I saw sand in the mouth also, it happens when the prata is dying and not able to close up to prevent sand from entering........

    Anyway, your prata is expensive stuff!!!............ from Golden Octopus???............

    My nitrates ard 0.2mg/L, yeah they r from G.O. But this prata i've kept for quite some time before it become like that.

    Dunno why?

  5. 3 of my LPS, namely 2 pratas and 1 trachy are showing signs of stress (spider web like strings growing on top of the flesh near mouth areas) Can anyone tell what's the cause of it? My Ca is around 420mg/l and KH approx 10.2-10.6dkh. Before that I'm having some problem with one brand of test kit telling me my Ca 450mg/l til I used Salifert's which is showing me my calcium is actually 300mg/l. Dunno if this is the cause of it? Of the 3 LPS, 2 of it is badly stressed while the 3rd one is just starting to show little threads on its flesh.
