  1. Hi Scarab, do you use carbon at the output of the skimmer ? Is it nec ? According to Julian Sprung's book pg 131 ( don't know has it been proven wrong yet) "Ozone was originally suggested to increase skimmer efficiency, but when larger amount is used, many of the organics usually extracted become oxidized into other forms that are more resistant to removal. Common symptoms of excessive ozone use are a dramatic drop in skimmer output, much lighter coloured effluent."
  2. is that a new skimmer ? new skimmer need a few days to run in before it can skim so as to remove substances such as oil from manufacting...

  10. education, increase the awareness of the beauty and how delicate it is so even people whom don't go underwater can appreciate and understand the need to protect the reef, yeah discovery channel is doing the job well, but nothing compares seeing the real thing
  11. started off with intention of sharing the beauty of the reef with folks and friends that don't enjoy sun and sea as much after my first diving trip , and it turns out to be much more
  12. Thank you giantbicycle what did you vote for? how did you get rid of them ? can't find them in your thread ,,,
  13. hi nLeong, Please do let me know, I wait for your posts till I make the booking, plan to go most probably in August
  14. I think your skimmer is probably removing the chemical you just added, and will stop once all the chemical is remove, by tuning your skimmer now will reduce its efficiency, so its your call if you wan the coating to be there any longer, or you want the skimmer to run properly... same thing happen to my skimmer when i change water with too much chlorine removal that has coating for fish.... my two cents.
  15. Anyone winning the battle with Byropsis ?
  16. Thank you dradtg, guess will try to plan at least one nights at lembeh... how is barracuda dive resort ? is it more 'dive' or 'resort'
  17. Where is Wakai ? ... Ok.. did a search and quote AlvinTan " wakai is at : 67 Sungei Tengah Rd Unit 33 & 34 ( Farmart Centre) Singapore 699008.. The one with the big Blue Signboard.. "
  18. Have not book any resort yet, any reccomendation ? You would say stay on the west coast and make day trip to lembeh would be an option ? Yeah lor, after last year sipadan trip, and the trip to Kuantan is sigh.... Thanks !
  19. planning to go for a trip in manado, but cannot decide how to divide the time between “Bunaken National Park” and “Lembeh Straits”, we got eight days... anyone been there before ? can share your view ? thanks !
  20. If it is cyano, my guess is it probably will hurt the lie stocks... If it grows on on your coral, it might irritates them , some fish will lost apetite after accidently feed on them and starve to die.. my two cents...
  21. i am using the above CR, but recently, the water level inside the chamber falls low...much lower than before where the level almost occuped the while chamber... I am wondering if it is the problem with the eheim pumps? the medium ? I am running the jet stream at a bubble every 2 seconds.. thank you in advance !
  22. tried using a sponge or foam at the output ? it should work to reduce the turbulence and foam.. my two cents...
  23. Thank you all for the response, all units reserved.
