  4. The Algae Algae is one of the "pest" reefers tries to control. How to deal with excessive algal growth in the aquarium? This is one of the challenges which many reefers face. The conventional wisdom (if you read through my posts, you will know I'm not a fan of blinding believing in them)is that, one must tackle the algae problem at its source. By addressing the underlying nutrient problem, we can overcome the algae problem. To many, this means reducing nitrate and phosphate in the water. I, however, think that this view is missing out on the bigger picture. Algae in the Reef Just like the corals, algae evolves to take advantage of the sun light, and produce their energy supply through photosynthesis. At the same time, they require inorganic nutrients such as nitrate and phosphate in order to build its biomass. So, suppose if we can deny the algae of these nutrients, by lower the nitrate and phosphate to very low levels, surely we can control the aglae growth, right? It's not that simple. Unfortunately, algae evolved to take advantage of the environment where coral thrives. They can survive, and thrive, even under very low level of nutrients, such as that of a coral reef. So in the blind rush to drive down the nutrients, one often realise that the first to suffer is corals, not algae. Therefore, dealing with algae by driving down nutrients, is probably not the best direction. Algae NOT on the Reef Having said all these, we are face with another interesting fact: natural reefs are not overrun with algae. This is not because algae cannot grow in the reef, but because herbivores residing in the reef place a grazing pressure on those growth. Tangs, foxface, angelfish and various inverts continuously prey on the algae, and keeps the population from overrunning the reef. Therefore, the key to algae control is having a sufficient population of herbivores. And that's the natures' way to keep algae in check.

  5. Best to go for sump and avoid IOS, very space limited to put equipment and makes it very cluttered. I had both and never going IOS route again Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

  7. Personally my advice is to have a very clear idea of the asthetic you want to achieve and simply copy that. A well set up and carefully stocked 60cm cube, is way better than a half setup large tank! That said, if your dream is to have a larger tank, then try not to compromise, go with the biggest tank and setup you can afford. Strangely it will save money in the long run as you won't be re-buying things). The tank bundles you get in shops are actually are a great starting point. But... do set yourself a budget. If you want to save some money look out for someone decommissioning their tank & setup. You can also save money by being smart on what you buy as you dont need that much gear. (Although I have found that cheap comes at the cost of needing to invest more time). And yes do get a chiller (I used to be more diplomatic when answering 'do I need a chiller' questions, but now I simply say its essential). Basically it increases your chances of success (plus adds loads of other benefits like increase disolved oxygen which promote bacterial growth) and anything else in Singapore is honestly an unrealistic compromise. If you really need help/guidance PM me and I would be most happy to walk you through step by step. Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

  8. Actually I have no clue yet what to get. Was hoping if someone can guide me or point me to some shops that I can go ask around. I was told some beginner's corals do not need chiller so at first I was looking at IOS tank. However, IOS means next time I want to add things like chiller, etc, there is a limited space. Given that the tank is already small due to the internal sump. So if the price difference is not that much, I am open to external sump also.
