But there are some midnight angel that totally ignore corals... lol.. Depends...

Bro Max... Which beach do you catch all these stuffs... looks cool...

You might need to get a tank dedicated for it... no dangerous powerhead, overflow... And it only feeds on Sponges.. But Bro, no offends, but it is best that you read up more about the livestock that you are going to buy...

Midnight angel is whole body black one... i think you bought the Yellow-fin pygmy or the key hole bah...

i see wakai selling needle wheel pump not those by macro...... but i dunno how efficient it is... You can go and take a look...

Midnight angel is not reef safe... so it is not surprising that it is nipping at your corals..

Not only taiwan, japan but hong kong too... It is difficult to convince the authorities... And normally will fail one... Not only with reptiles, it is really difficult to get the ava to approve keeping of dog above 10kg in HDB... And dogs lover are sort of keeping dogs unlicensed and it is illegal, dog will be taken away if caught... Although they loosen the restriction abit... The authorities always ###### up one lar... Bring the wrong info to the public and the public just "Orh.........."

I think the flowrate recommended is supposed to be print on the box or manual... btw is it necessary to fit the FR up with so much Carbon/Rowa... I think about half can already right..

Although i really wish that the animal trade in Singapore can loosen up... But i think singaporean are not really ready to keep these animals as pets... I dunno why but it seems like we are not as matured as other countries ppl of the same ages... And our attitudes towards pets in not really matured, parents buy dogs, cats, hamsters when their kids like it.. And just abandoned those animals when their children get bore of it...This is a serious problem with most parents in Singapore... Most ppl also buy on impluse,(I admit i do buy on impulse at times)... They dun read much about the animal they are going to buy and just buy... And den panick later... I am not saying i am not a singaporean but i dunno why, i feel i cannot stand some singaporean actions and character... Or the problem lies with me???

Becos of the recent incident about the posting of racisim on forums... So must be careful... But i seriously feel that not all singaporean can accept ppl keeping potentially dangerous animals, like blue-ring, snakes and etc... And some singaporean really treat animals like toy... you imagine if a person keeping a snake and he got bored of it and released it... It might cause a big hoha to the public... Although it can be controlled like license or so... But i doubt AVA will go to such extent as it is increasing their work...

I just feel that some of the restrictions that AVA carry out is somewhat unreasonable... Like cannot have a dog weighing more than 10kg in a HDB apartment... And can hand carry 30 fish in SG but cannot have water more than 3 litres... Weird.. Will get sued anot huh... lol...

My dream tank... Hope my tank will be like yours in time to come... lol...

I tot reborn got LPS and SPS shipment today...

Seems like galaxy coral aka durian to me...

It is just the wattage and intensity of the light that is different if i am not wrong... lol... Actually it is quite easy to DIY a T5 set... just that it will not be as nice as commercial set... lol...

The Dymax is Normal-Output (NO) tube if i am not wrong... To use the High-Output(HO), you will need to change the ballast as the wattage is different..

Okaie... I learn something new about how to perform Hyposalinity...

Could it be that the male might display a brighter color to attract the female... Just guessing... lol..

lol... Or should say optimal temperature... lol..

To perform Hyposalinity... You must make sure you have no corals in your tank... And reduce the Salinity of the tank bit by bit... Can replace 5% of the saltwter with freshwater, every few days... Untill it reaches 1.018-1.020... Must slowly reduce the salinity.. After you feel that the ich is gone, increase the salinity bit by bit... HTH...

If the worms are relatively safe... But i personally will leave the small ones alone but i will try to catch out the big ones... Find them disgusting... But due to personal preference... As for countering Ich, there are several ways... Using UV... Get a UV steriliser, which is available at most LFS... Brand includes Coralife, Atman, UV-C etc... It will kill ich to a certain extent and keep the infestation low... Using Ozone... This, you will need to buy a ozonizer and a ORP Controller... Need to moniter the ORP in your tank... Have limited experience in this... Never quite research in detail... This will kill ich for sure if iam not wrong... Even the good bacteria will be killed too... Feeding food soaked in garlic juice... This is to boost the immunity of the fish... So that they wun get ich so easily.. But it will not kill the existing ich in your tank... My 0.02 cent worth... HTH...

QuietOne maybe...

Why ler... The sump is only half full... So can hold a lot water...

Busy with school and new tank lor... lol...

Cool.... Cant wait to see it...
