bro from ur tank thread..i believe your tank is not ready for sps..no point throwing money down the drain just like that.. like bro tunicate mentions, water parameters plays a major part in sps husbandary. not just lighting alone..do you know your ca, mg, sr, kh, ph, temp levels? most of the bros who are sps keepers keen a keen eye on water parameters. protein skimmer helps to keep a good water quality unless one can do water changes regularly, HOB does not quite cut it...water must be clean for sps. and for such a small tank like yours, very hard to control water parameters. like you, i want to start SPS too, but i find myself flipping through my chemistry text book checking if NaHO3 precipitates CACl2 and what is a desirable result i want to achieve. i check water perimeters every 3 days, dose once a week. if i can keep my water perimeter up to par, then i will start learning about the SPS for beginners. but time is not ready... start slow, enjoy the learning process, enjoy the friendship and live a gd life!

Through my own experience, I find it is important to have a mature tank and of course regular maintenance/water change etc, to ensure the survivability of certain type of fish. I personally feel some fish will not be able to adapt/survive in tanks that are too newly set up. There are some bros here who keep many types of angel fish, perhaps you can see their previous postings. I believe a tank that is too "new" may not be suitable for angels.

Have a skimmer body to give away, unfortunately, the nossle was damaged when i brought out of the car, need to glue back etc. Also, found 4 unused air stone. All items are FOC but on the condition of no reselling and also self collect at Sembawang today before 8 pm. Else, will be 'recycled'. Please sms 9624 5824 if interested. Thank you
