Fellow Reefers... I believe most of you have already battle Ich at some point during your reefing life. Great interest has been shown in a new product from NLS, ICK-SHIELD http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=30016 . And it was recently made available in LFS here. I have just purchased a tub of 1mm one to try it out. It only comes in a big tub so... I don't think I will be able to finish it before it expires. Hence, I'm offering anyone who wish to try it out before you buy it(its not cheap!)... I will give you some sample of it to try it out. Its free... no need frag, no need coke, no need 100plus... all I ask in return is to share your experience here with this new fish food, its effectiveness... so that it will benefit the whole reefing community. Im not sure if this food is reef safe or not, do your research beforehand. So, drop me a PM if you are still interested, collection will be at Simei after 11pm weekdays and bring your own container or baggy. Have fun... PS. Do support local LFS and buy a tub if you like it

Great gesture bro slayer.. I have used this pellet too for my FOWLR tank..I would feed them occasionally..not all my fishes feed (shd b reason stated by bro tang sohal)..I treat this as a precaution..so far no ill effect..I do feed my fishes the HEX shield occasionally too..I have a lot left too..Reefer who want to try n get some from me too..Ick & HEX shield both r 1mm pellet..I live in woodlands

Lucky u are alive please be more cautious in using US pumps . Better to choose those 220v pumps.

one of your motor might be leaking current.. you can use a test pen to test the water for electric current. try to off all of them and them one by one and use a test pen to test for leakage, once you identify which one, you can replace that pump with a new one or or repair it. most of the time, this pump with 2 pin plug will have this problem... other method is using a ground prode and connect to the Earth of our electric socket... doing this only if you know that it it not a defective pump or equipment.. normally for me , when I choose a pump, I check if the power plug is 3pin or at least it is a 3 cable type, (u can see a grounding metal on the plug). then I will convert them to local 3pin plug type

Great pic! Perculas?

I am using Kamoer 3 channels. Despite being a second hand set, it still works very well in terms of precision dosing. Brand is in the pharmceutical industry. Had some minor hiccups when I bought over but it was immediately rectified thanks to Ken's excellent after sales service. Good mid range product and easy to use too

Hey guys, Just got back from madpetz, and got myself two boxes of HW Marinemix - reefer. Just tested it out, and I'm really happy with the results. Just sharing with everyone here. I first saw this salt appear on Bulkreefsupply. Heres a video of it. Never thought of using it as it was not available in sg back than. One of the first synthetic salt mixes ever produced No anti-caking agents No chemical or environmental pollutants, no nitrates, phosphates or silicates Natural, stable pH and optimal alkalinity Contains no EDTA which can chelate many necessary trace elements Optimized with amino acids and organically stabilized iodine - great for the reef hobbyist Heres the box of salt : Its small and portable, easy to carry, box weights 20kg. I transfered it over to a container for dry seal: Salt is very powdery Mixing in the salt @ 1.0255 sg: After 10 Mins of mixing After 15 Mins water is perfectly clear Water Parameters: Heres what bulk reef supply claims: "Upon BRS analysis - hw-Marinemix Reefer contained Calcium at 445-450 ppm, Alk of 9.0 dKH, Magnesium at 1380 ppm." My own test with salifert (upon water clearing, 15mins from first mix) : SG 1.0255. KH 8.6 (purplish pink) 8.9 (full pink). CA 440. Mg: 1410 My own honest review: German salt is really awesome!The salt parameters are impressive, they are very similar to BRS analysis, the MG is perfect for me which means I won't have to dose magnesium, just regular water change should do the trick. I keep my tan's KH between 7.3 to 7.5....so I probably have to wait for it to mix awhile longer. Will test again 6hrs time and share the info here. Salt looks really high grade, and since theres is no anti caking agent, im hoping there wont be leftover brown crude / residue / sediments as i get with other salt mixes in my container any longer. Excited to see how my corals react to the new salt mix. Will keep everyone updated. If anyone has tried this salt, pls share your own review.

Hi, Any bro visiting LCK tomorrow? I don't drive, wish to tag along. Thank you.
