jervismun Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Now No3 is in the 3 level from 5 level. try to change the 80% water this weekend Sis, looking real good (and real packed)... it's sad to see a tank fully packed actually... no more LFS shopping Changing of water may not be the long term solution for controlling NO3 effectively in my opinion. And changing 80% is way too extreme, you may want to reconsider that. Perhaps 20% weekly. Personally, I try not to rely solely on water change to control nutrients reason being... I might get lazier next time, busy at times and I do travel more often towards year end. And water change is both expensive and time consuming. Perhaps you want to consider introducing a Nitrate Reductor (Denitrator) into the system. A reliable working Denitrator can help maintain NO3 at almost undetectable level at all time. But the most effective "weapon" of all is a good efficient skimmer. I am confident that your NO3 will be much lesser if you are to run a more efficient/powerful protein skimmer. Since you can't add much corals to your tank now... perhaps focus on hardware It's a cycle... with better equipments... you can add in more corals!!! Note: My last sentence was meant to be a joke. It can be true... but too controversial a statement Quote Tank 60x40x40 Optiwhite Glass Tank Sump Elos 500 w/ Tunze Overflow Protein Skimmer Skimz Kone SK1 Return Pump Hydor Seltz L30 Wavemaker Hydor K1 Illumination 150W + 2 T5 Chiller Arctica 1/5hp w/ Aquabee 1000 Water Top-up Tunze Osmolator Dosing Pumps Grotech 3-Channels Calcium Reactor Deltec PF 501 Computer Aquatronica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member kelstorm Posted August 25, 2006 SRC Member Share Posted August 25, 2006 Nice purple anemone. I might be wrong but i'm afraid the anemone might be artificially dyed.

jervismun Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Nice purple anemone. I might be wrong but i'm afraid the anemone might be artificially dyed. I initially thought so too... but that Anemone has been with Sis for a couple of weeks now... so I take it as its natural colour Quote Tank 60x40x40 Optiwhite Glass Tank Sump Elos 500 w/ Tunze Overflow Protein Skimmer Skimz Kone SK1 Return Pump Hydor Seltz L30 Wavemaker Hydor K1 Illumination 150W + 2 T5 Chiller Arctica 1/5hp w/ Aquabee 1000 Water Top-up Tunze Osmolator Dosing Pumps Grotech 3-Channels Calcium Reactor Deltec PF 501 Computer Aquatronica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
