  1. TTboy, Kalk paste is just simply kalkwasser powder mixed with a little water... so it's pasty. Just suck it up with a syringe.. and inject right into the open mouth of any pest anemone, majano or aiptasia. Just don't overdo it and make sure the kalk paste doesn't get into any other coral.
  2. What do you think? *hands spade a bathing kong* Now go do a water change at underwater world with this!!
  3. Actually, I would very much like a trip to you know where but the weather sux now.... i hate to be wet cold and miserable especially in that place, unless we pitch a tent... lol!
  4. A solenoid is useful to shut off CO2 flow to your reactor... and into your tank, should there be a power failure. Without which... unless your calcium reactor allows bleedoff of CO2 or a shut-off mechanism... your tank's PH could drop a lot or your livestock would be dying from CO2 poisoning.
  5. The report from US reefers who tried mangroves have mostly come back as negative. 1. They take too long to grow and most importantly, 2. They don't create enought impact in nutrient uptake. A lot of them have switched back to using macroalgae.
  6. Where does this leave the 'oldies'? LOL! Anyway.... this show won't get be excited this!!!!! THIS IS WHAT EXCITES ME! hmm... it doesn't work... so try this!
  7. Ok... now you know! Anyway... if you have brown algae on the glass, it's probably a form of cyanobacteria. Usually harmless, just ugly. Just don't get the red thick matty kind!
  8. Hi Kais... Welcome to SRC! Uhhh... your posted pix is too big... I will edit your post and repost your resized pix. In future, try to keep your photo width within 700 pixels. Nice tank... but you may want to consider that sea apple as it's extremely toxic should it die or get terribly stressed.
  9. We could use his input on reefkeeping and have him share his experiences etc! Robe... did you tell him to join SRC?
  10. You know what, Pospeh? You're rite! We just welcomed member 276!! The no. of members shown at the bottom of the board includes non-validated members! Now whose 300??? Guys... who is the one who mis-id'ed member 300?!
  11. Only get the black ones which are reef-safe. I haven't seen tigertail cukes in Singapore yet. The rest are risky. A hint in nature observation: the more colourful the species, the more there is a good reason why it is so: To warn off potential predators... ie. I AM POISONOUS!!! The black cukes are sand-sifters so they are good. The rest will climb glass walls and rocks and feed off drifting detritus etc. Don't get too many cukes as your sand bed may not support all the food they require. And don't worry... they won't harm your pods either. AT
  12. Pix 1 looks like a Blastomusa. Pix 2 is a rock anemone... a pest... kill it before it spreads.
  13. Hi Platax!! Welcome to the Singapore Reef Club! You're No. 300!!! WELCOME!!!!!!!!!!!! Can we have an introduction from you? AT
  14. AARRGGGHH!!! My eyes! The pain!!! Yeeurgh! Ehh... that tank looks strangely familiar.... izzn't that yours, Phang?? LOL!!!
  15. Hmmm... you're right!! Where's my Chinese New Year mandarin hat?
  16. Ahh... there are worse things that happen in this hobby. Trust me.
  17. Not interested in profit. Just to get rid of the unit and cover my cost at least. My new lighting plan is gonna cost a bomb though.. 150 watts is not enough for me... looking at min 250watts... and 400watts would be ideal. If my dad runs PUB, I'll get 1000watters...
  18. Hah? I kelong for what?? To take a dive in Wisma Atria tank? No thanks! Tell you what... since you have insulted me one too many times.... I hereby reward the 300th member with a free one-year tank maintenance contract done by none other than *drum-roll*..... SPADE!!!!
  19. The moment of truth: 299 members!! WHO IS GONNA BE THE 300th???
  20. Did you manage to spot Osama Bin Laden? Anyway... nice shots... how come the flight path to UK passes over Afghanistan??
  21. Morgan! That is so farnie!! lol!! It's THE TRUTH!!!!!! And Rumour has the scar to prove it! Morale of the story: Leave animals alone!
  22. Be careful of those pendant which sit above your tank on 4 legs... it's a major accident waiting to happen. Also very prone to water splashes. I think TTboy has those Taiwanese made ones and still regrets it to this day. You can ask him.
  23. Urrgghh!! My eyes! My eyes!!!!!! NooooooooooOOOOoooooooOOO!!!! Ouch.. my eyes hurt just looking at your pix! j/k... i have seen Tanzy's tank.... and it's sweet!
  24. Spade and Dodo... I hold you two wholly responsible if the membership count stops at 299!!! You are scaring away the 300th member!!
