    Finally decided to give away the carpet anemone after my fire dartfish went missing. Been searching around my tank for since Thursday to confirmed that it did not jump out. Got a Bubble Coral and Torch Coral (I think) from Iwarna over the weekend. Also got a pair of Kaudern's Cardinal from Ah Beng.

    LemonLemon,

    Beng say Geo Hawk should be available on Friday :)

    Yeh.. It is quiet heavy, I think so.. But arent all cabinet base is hollow?

    There is usually some braces. Anyway, I do not think its possible to move the pump.....

    Let's think harder.... having some liquid below might be able to damp the vibrations... any ideas?

    After the lights off for about 2 hrs, I went hunting again with my torch. I noticed many tiny white spots on the glass wall. They are so tiny I couldn't made up how they look like. Their actions are like "jumping" on the glass, swim out, swim back to the glass again..... jump around....

    Are these pods?

    Mine has a foam below... I only on my pump others are not on at all..

    Is it becos my cabinet is not against the wall so the noise is escaping from there? I will push the cabinet against the wall and bring the sump a bit out by next week.. Hope it works...

    Make no sense. Mine is not against the wall and have 3 pumps running in the sump. I suspect the "base" of your cabinet is hollow, which is amplifying the sound.

    Edit: I just realized you pump is humongous.... lol.... is it heavy?

    That could mean the sump is vibrating and the closeness of the rear cabinet wall is amplifying the vibration noise. With all equipment in the sump switch on, is the sump vibrating when you touch it? If it does, you might need to add a sound absorbing material to be placed between the sump and the rear cabinet wall. You might have to check all the equipment in the sump to see if they are vibrating. Chances are, they may need to be raised and have something placed below that item to reduce the vibrational impact.

    Just a theory to help.

    BFG had got me thinking. You mean you do not have a foam under your sump tank? Or I am the only one to put a foam under sump tank? biggrin.gif

    How many times do you feed your fishes daily?

    well said bro. i agree on this. that's why when an imbalance happens (whether too much predators or too less down the food chain), catastrophe strikes. and man also plays a big role on possibly causing such imbalance.

    Thanks poomoon,

    It is really sad human indeed defies the nature order.

    Anyway, I went Redang recently with my family and we went snorkeling. Laguna shipped us to different locations of the island and tourists were encourage to buy bread from them to feed the fishes (I am guilty of this but I koped from breakfast :P). There are indeed a lot of fishes everywhere and the "life guards" even dived down to feed the Anemone with bread. It is obvious there were lots of corals especially SPS, but what I witness is pure white scape of dead corals. The ignorant tourists were even complementing how pretty it was.......

    The next day, we decided to explore the island ourself. We rented a kayak and scuba around. We witness healthy corals in places that tourist do not visit.

    I don't know what give you guys the impression and food are easy to find in the wild.

    From my personal observation, food are never easy to find in the wild. Even during seasons when there are (such as breeding season), their predator will be lurking around.

    You would understand if you are a seasoned diver.

    Just look at places that allow feeding of fishes, the water are always infested with algae and most corals struggling, bleached or dead.

    There are a balance in Mother Nature to keep everything in a correct proportion and food/water is always the biggest challenge and many lost their life to satisfy this equation.
