  1. Looks good and healthy so wats there to slam u abt How abt some spec bro.
  2. Surperb growth until the maxi behd have been "kicked out of it spot"
  3. To keep them for 30 yrs is abit far-fetched. Even i, find it hard to believe fishes tat can live tat long. I have seen my uncle's tank the first time over at his new house when he did his housewarmin many yrs back (married and move out of my grandparent place). Hmm.....didn't really take note of the LS in there then. But couple of yrs backs due to this hobby have started takin note of the LS in his tank. Infact 2 eels he kept has been with him for yrs, very easily regonised due to some marking found on their body. To him is, anythin tat he added and survived the first 3 days will survive. Of coz he went thru the proper cycling tat was dn so many yrs ago...and whether he had any casualities durin the initial pharse> tat i dun knw but i believe his tank has oreadi matured until cannot mature. And tats may explain y he nvr use skimmer or is there a skimmer to start off with 15yrs back. Btw....durin his time dun think there is PS in the market yet. Seen him havin salt mix over at his place but how often he change water, i also dunno but i highly doubt he did it oftenly coz he still got his birds, planted tank, freshwater fishes and dogs to look after OR mayb its the maid tat do all these . Its a small little pet shop to me Btw its not surprising tat ur uncle's fishes died due to the fact tat he juz mixed water and salt and tats it. 30yrs back and pple r keepin marine w/o all these hi-tech equipments and the LS last so we cannot commend tat a PS is a must. Juz like we can survive w/o Internet 30yrs back coz there isn't such a thing then doesn't mean we cannot survive w/o it now rite
  4. One Iwasaki DE 150W 6500k bulb for sale at $30. One mth old, still holdin receipt. Sellin coz got no use for it. Got left 1. Sun coral -$10 2. Branching Hammer coral -$20 3. Croceas -$25 up Pls pm me.
  5. Its definitely a good buy for a CL650 at $250. Sure sell in no time. So bro, gonna use the $250 to get more sps huh
  6. IMO any anemone would be so much better off acting as host for clown rather than carpet anemone coz small fishes r very likely ended up being their food
  7. Yup, no joke. Uncle of mine has been keepin marine for 30 over yrs. Remember seein them over at my grandma place donkey yrs back when i m 5...floatin glass hrdrometer, lionfish, starfish....etc. Tat time got skimmer? Dun remember seein anythin of tat sort His current tank tat had been with him, think abt 15yrs. System runnin as mentioned above. No skimmer, infact no filtration at all. Juz topup water to cover evaporation. Even offered me bottles of addictives which i rejected... think they must have expired long time . Dun feed fish? i highly doubt so, how they gonna survive w/o food.
  8. As i mentioned before, my uncle's tank runnin w/o skimmer, filtration, basically nuthin....juz LRs, lots of fishes, MH, two powerhead in tank. cannot remember got corals ornt. And tank is older tat src stubborn boy.
  9. So Macro have launched their needle wheel skimmer
  10. Addin LS will cause a slight increase in N02...but will be counter by ur system shortly if u have started off properly (proper cycling etc). Chemical warfare among corals r pretty common so it may take a while for ur corals to get use to one another. Since u have shifted ur old corals location...they will nd to get use to the new location (change in flow, lightin,.....) or they may juz not do well due to the factors i juz mentioned too. Juz note certain corals r not to be placed close to other species and do read up on their requirments.
  11. Hi Marineman, i dunno tat u enjoy tokin to cow
  12. stunning...look so much better than my tank
  13. Not surprising, u shd knw well wat butterfly fish can do to some of ur corals and inverts...
  14. miz gettin wet Have a good trip bro, post pix when return
  15. I would say the 55W PL would give better penetration than the 40W T5 but have to take the heat produce by the PL into consideration. T5 generally produce less heat and can u can squueze in more tube on top of the tank than PL.
  16. Updates. Torch coral still available...5 branches (green tip) $20 Monti plate frag (big piece) $10 sold Sun coral $10 sold Couple of croceas $25-$35
  17. Updates. Torch coral still available...5 branches (green tip) $20 Monti plate frag (big piece) $10 Sun coral $10 Couple of crocea $25-$35

  19. Aiyah...come up to be abt the same also. 55W + 40W =95W liao....more than a 70W MH . But since i got a 150W so used it lor
  20. Both T5 and PL are a set (with casing, eballast.....) not tubes only
