  1. $100 deal at pasir ris. Sms 96601140. Seldom login. Dont pm
  2. Selling my 6ft tank as I no longer keeping fish. Built by N30, age about 2 yrs. Front panel is crystal glass. 12mm all sides with 15mm base. View at pasir ris st 72. Tank is very wellkept. View to believe. Going for only 2.5k. Interested buyers pls pm me your contact. Have issue uploading pics.
  3. I will remove the lighting next to the skimmer. With lighting that strong, the skimmer n sump will grow algea. That small area will not help much for your tank.
  4. Treatment of ich takes about 4 to 8 weeks depending on your treatment method. If u catch your flame angel out from display tank to treat and put it back to the display tank after treatment, it will get ich again cos your display tank is already infected.

    DIY overflow

    Do post a pic of your overflow system. Its very strange that 30mm down pipe cant handle 4600l/hr flow. I am using just a single 30mm downpipe and i an using 12k + 5k return pumps. My guess is there could be trapped air inside the downpipe which results in the slow flow.
  6. Dont say bo jio. Tips from the "src advisor"
  7. The trend is to change it once a mth. If it overflow, its ok. Changing a new sock 3 to 5 days is very costly n waste of money.
  8. A queen in a reef tank is always beautiful to look at.
  9. These are the fishes that I kept before from juv to Adult colour, French, Grey, Queen, Townsend, Emperor. French and grey grow damn fast given the right condition. Mine grew from 2inches to about 10 inches in less than a year. Emperor from 3 inches to 8inches. Sold it within 8 mths. Queen and townsend will be slow, 1.5inches to 4inches about 6 mths.
  10. Empty vessels make most noise

  11. What's the point of using a filter if u let it overflow? Might as well dont use filter this way. No wonder sump tank so dirty. LOL
  12. 222 will be a good start. Big enough to house these small fishes.
  13. If u know how to diy pipings, google diy overflow pipe. Seriously if u want to come into this hobby, make sure your tank is set up the right way. A sump tank will save u alot of problem in the future.
  14. very long never spoonfeed liao, http://skimz.sg/index.php?route=product/product&path=59&product_id=74
  15. I think a sc1660 might be alittle small for a 6ft fowlr. How many L can your tank hold? SC1660 heavy stock for 1100L normal stock 1300L, this make the turnover rate about 1 time nia. If possible go for at least 2 or 3 times. regarding using artifical rocks, if u want to know more, pm me, i will tell u something that might change your mind.
  16. Bro do take note u need to off the skimmer during the treatment period.
  17. I dont need to know how many type of OHF is out there. I already mention when ts mention his 6ft 3 tier OHF, I already know the kind of set up he is running on. If i know what kind of OHF ts is using, I will give my pc of advise, if i have no idea of what ts is using, I will just shut and let other members who have experience with it advise ts This is what forum is about, sharing our real life experience, not like some people need to google and give advise. Like that might as well tell ts to google, the answer are all there.
  18. I dont see how asking for his pic of the ohf and pump rate is helping to think if any set up is feasible. If u need to google to know how the ohf look like, what advise and experience u talking about? Your answer pretty sum up everything. Cheers and happy reefing.
  19. Mind sharing your tank Size and how u changing water
  20. When TS mentioned he is using 6ft 3 tier OHF, its already very clearcut what filter he is running? If u want to see can always google or dropby pasir ris farmway. Alot of fw shops selling the filter. At the same time can ask boss what pump to use. BTW how is interested to see the OHF and knowing pump rate of the OHF funny? Cos u ended it with hahaha, I abit slow dont get your "joke" Last but not least, I only know u as a customer, we not even frens to begin with, so spare me with your bro address. Not used to stranger calling me bro. No offence.
  21. One other concern will be the cabinet for your current tank. Will it be able to withstand the weight of saltwater? Marine tank with salt water, rocks and sand can weight alot heavier than a normal fw setup. Also can it tahan kena saltwater anot. u can actually use your current tank if your cabinet has space to place a sump tank. google on diy overflow system, else u can get a overflow box. With some mods, u can have a overflow system in your set up. also if your tank is on metal stand, then forget the idea of marine. salt and metal dont mix very well.
