Hi all,
Latest update, I believ e after all the fresh water dip I think i get rid of all the hitchhiker. 10 days past and seems ok. thanks to all for the advise.
-
hi sir,
thanks for the advise, as already install bio pellet running for 3 weeks. can i still plant cheato?
-
Any Life stocks?
-
I believe they can whereas crabs can only grab those fishes that sleep between rocks gap. like Blue tang etc...So far my 2 clown fish still around. As they hover mid water when sleeping. Touch wood...
-
No....that why I have no clue. Even my 4inch Clam was tear apart left only on side which I believe will not survive as well. I did a fresh water dip for everything in the tank to get rid of all the hitchhikers. but like I mentioned only a few miserable small hairy crab which is less than 1/2 inches. My Flame is 2.5 inch and I don't think the small crab are the culprit. No remain nothing at all when I take down my whole tank. Septicle to buy any more fish....Sian.
Anyway, thanks for all the advise.

Hi snr,
Anyone can advise why healthy fish missing one after another, I suspected Crabs and started to trap them. So far caught a few small hairy crab not bigger than 1/2 inch. However still have fish missing. First is my 1" Blue Tang, Next was my 2" Flame Angel. And another 3 smaller fishes. All eating and very healthy fishes. No trace of their remain etc....I suspect some BIG hitchhiker
Yesterday, I took out every pcs of LF and dip into Fresh Water, again manage to catch 3 small hairy crab. I hope that the end of my era. Pray hard....
Or anyone have similar experience and can share your removal method....thks

If you don't mind branded. I recently bought New Boyu brand from Ah Beng LFS.at $30 plus and a pump for $12. My biopellet is running effectively for my 3ft tank.

Are you only looking for above specific brand?

Hi Sir,
This morning the water resume back to clear stage, however, the nitrates is still at 50mg/l. Is this the right sympton. Or I still need few days to check nitrates?
Appreciate those who have pass experience to share....thks

My DIY setup as exactly copy from the above and the Tap water will run thru the ION exchange than follow into the Activated carbon. So it is like 2 stage purifying.
However, the question here is which stage to run first. Madpet advise was to run Carbon before the ION. But I did the reverse and the results still measuring as zero.
Hopefully, I am doing the right way...thks
-
Hi Sir,
Thanks for the advise, will wait few days to see whether the biopellet is running. If not will heed your advise on "Its clear".
Once again, thanks
At least, I am glad to know the live stocks can take it at the moment and hope the system kick in to resume back to normal operation.

Hi Senoir
Need advise on below:
1) Water start to get cloudy after installing bio pellet reactor ..3day start to get cloudy
Will nitrate drop once water get clear. Can add livestocks or coral after nitrate drop?
2)Do we need to change water after water clear?
3) Will the livestocks able to ride thru the nitrate export transit period?
Usually how long does it takes to get over the cloudy period?

Hi Sir,
Thanks for the advise, I extended by adding another bottle of Activated carbon. With this combination, can I forgo adding Anti Chlorine. Appreciate so much ...thks

I have a DI unit brand NSW, going cheap. Just sms you.

Hi Senoir,
I have try using your above DIY DI water method and result is immediate and within an hour, my TDS meter from 6 to 0. Does that mean I have successfully filter my tap water to DI water. Do I need to add Anti Chlorine. I also follow your recommended media. Do I need to run thru additional other media purification before I can use the water as Top up.
Appreciate your valuable advise...thks
