  1. Joe interested in this??? Just fragged it got two frags...
  2. Bro... Still got anot... Exchange with a pink shroom...
  3. Cool Colors... What is it elephant ear huh...
  4. I believe hydrogen sulfide is the black patches in the DSB... Actually hydrogen sulfide will not form in the DSB if the DSB does not exceed 4 inch... From what i experience... The reason why a plenum system will prevent the formation of hydrogen sulfide is becos the gravel is being sandwiched between the highly oxygenated aquarium water circulating above it and below it the plenum water, which maintains a low but generally stable level of dissolved oxygen... So being sandwiched between these oxygenated zones tends to prevent the formation of hydrogen sulfide... My 2cent...
  5. Might not have enough spread... Maybe can supplement with T5s...
  6. Quite hardy if you managed to get it to eat...
  7. Actually, I quite disagree on this statement... Plenum will actually prevent the formation of Hydrogen Sulphide... And Plenum also require a considerable amount of Sand although less than DSB... I think you got the whole plenum thingy wrong... It seems i have gone off-topic too... Pai seh... Pai seh...
  8. Cute fellow... lol... But will grow big hor...
  9. Anybody got experience with plenum... Going for a plenum system in my next setup...
  10. You bought a Juv Harlequin Tuskfish huh...
  11. It is becos hydrogen sulphide is produced due to the anaerobic condition in the sandbed, if i am not wrong... So when you introduce air into the setup, it increase the O2 concentration in the tank, so the hydrogen sulphide will decrease abit...
  12. It is a small one huh... you enlarge untill like very big.. Hehe... If you ever frag the red mushie, let me know... Exchange with you a pink mushie... lol...
  13. Chio mushies... Even more red than mine... Love your teardrop clam too.. Assume you spend alot on it huh...
  14. The chevy so cute but dun think ever gonna own one... So ex... lvcap, your abt so popular... lol...
  15. Got a species called Zebrasoma ichriddled meh... Or a ich-riddled black tang...
  16. Dan... Tot the water outlet of the power filter will cause the water to splash and make a lot of micro bubbles in the water... How you managed to solve that prob or you dun have that problem... Thankz...
  17. Too bad... Me, die hard fans of sly... Agreed that he sang quite badly last nite... But will still support him... Hehe... Maybe i am prejudiced against Taufik... Dun quite like him but i admit he sings very well...
  18. Truly Awesome... Vincent, Hand ich-ing huh...
  19. Maybe you could refrain from adding any livestock for the time being... Let the water parameter stablise first... Maybe for a week or two... When you add your fishes... Try to acclimatize them... Will have a better chance of survival in your tank... The best method is to use the dripping method... You will need a air tube, a air tube control valve(those green color one) and (of course!!!) a suitable size container or plastic tank... And a air pump to provide circulation during the acclimatization... Step 1: Pour all the fishes together with the water into the container... Step 2: Fix the control valve to the air tube ... And start the siphon by ###### the water from your tank to the container...(be careful not to drink some of the tank water) Step 3: Den just control the drip rate...(i normally do 1-3 drops/sec) Step 4: Pump air into the container to provide some circulation... Step 5: Wait untill the water is 200% of the intial level in the container... If you wan to drip longer by all means... Step 6: Pour the fishes and some of the water in the container into your tank... Want to pour all or some water, up to you...I normally dun pour all... This will ensure that the fishes will slowly get used to the water para in your tank... Will have a better survival rate... Hope it helps...
  20. The flowrate is high... but the heat give out is very high too..
  21. OR pumps are very ex all along... But i personally dun think OR6500 is reliable... Heard some bad reviews about it liao...
