That crab looks cool but I'll recommend you take them out

Also take the mantis out too, you'll regret not doing so when it starts killing your fishes.

And the debris is detritus from the rock. Try to siphon them out during water change :lol:

And BTW, nice view you got there :lol:

But if you tame me, we shall need each other.

If you have sunshine then may have algae problems at a latter stage. Yes staining of marble flooring will be quite tricky in removal at a later stage especially when you have chengai stands.

Nice tank.

Looks like its Kembangan MRT? or MRT around the region?

Haha. I actually made a cover for the tank during weekdays when I go to work. (To block off sunlight.) It is only in the weekend when I am at home that i remove the covers. A bit silly but not much choice.

hey pal, nice tank and scaping...some suggestions:

Nuke all your live rocks. Esp removing the mantis shrimp and all other pests. So when u stock up, you will feel safe and no worries.

And overall looks nature and nice to me. But guess that you going to have a hard times reaching the bottom...i guess so!

Keep us updated! :D

2. There are a lot of debris at the bottom of my tank. Is this normal during the cycling stage? How long will it last?

:sick::sick:

Hi Bro,

I dont think you have enough flow at the front of your tank. I see that one of your Seio is pointing down. I would suggest you point to the front or move it to the overflow box and point it to the front.

If this Seio is strong enough, the flow will be defract down by the glass and the detrius will be gone.

I would definitely suggest putting in more powerhead/Seio now. The more the flow the faster your tank cycle.

Gotta get earplugs first as my wife will grumble at me!!! :( This is the 3rd time i am moving the rocks out of the tank.

Hi jacky, the lightings seem sufficent for your tank. 4 tubes of Aqualight T5. . can consider adding two more tubes, or if you like the ripple effect on the water, 150watt MH will be good as well.

looking for 2nd hand MH.

If anyone is selling (150W or 250W), pls pm me :)

Thanks for the tip.will look for more powerheads for the tank.

I currently have a powerhead and a seio 820 inside the tank.

Think i need to get my tunze 6060 earlier than i thought.

I have face my seio downwards so that the detrius will be blown towards the tank which i could easily siphon out. If i face them towards the tank, the detrius will be blown under the rocks which will then be inaccessible right?

logical???? :huh:
