  1. ssshhhh cedric....... dont say that.. otherwise i'd be tempted to convert to SPS system sooner than I should... sshhh!!!!!
  2. terryz, I used to use the 1.5L coke bottle to cover my old super suns and then squirt in the mysis.. But at the time I only had like 2 colonies of super suns.. but you have LOTS... so ... good luck there!
  3. I added it in December courtsey of a fellow office reefer. it was a small branching frag but now become a very very big mao mao colony. Got a small bicolor birdsnest from a fellow reefer Ahlee which has also grown but not as big as the pink one. It's already 3.40pm but where is the rain!! AARRGGHH!
  4. worse comes to worse, get a cheap glass tank or... when in desperation last time, I used a pail, put in an air stone,.. and depending on how much lifestock is left, change about 10% of water every few days since there is no filtration system in the pail. If you feed more to boost up your fishes health, then change more water. That's the best I can think up at the moment. Or you can Call up the LFS that you got your fish from and ask whether they can hold your remaining healthy livestock for you whilst you give your current setup an overhaul and recyle all over again? where do you get your water from? Have you even tested your water parameters as what the above bros have been suggesting you to do? Unforutnately you're not telilng us allot of detail other than your fish dying so we don't have a good perspective of the scale of your situation. good luck.. we have all been there so we know how it feels.
  5. digibee,, good one... That is also another good consideration!! FUTURE UPGRADES!
  6. 1/3 is better but honestly compressor is better! If you can install the compressor, GO FOR IT
  7. nice suns,,, but somehow I am still trying to appreciate normal suns ... still far prefer fat fat super suns. LOL
  8. wilson, we're getting SPS Poisoned ... slowly..... next tank la.. now... no $$$.
  9. yeah put an exhaust fan which does look a bit like those toilet ones... i'm not sure about sizes but there should be a small decent size one. My initial setup was exactly like yours... and it was so hot ( also 1/4 Arctica) that I ended up putting it outside beside the tank cabinet but take note that whether your chiller is in the cabinet ( with exhaust fan) or outside next to the tank, it will make your room very warm unless your exhaust fan is somehow getting the warm air OUTSIDE of the space where your tank is Or your space is well ventilated. good luck with your setup.
  10. lol time to queue for the good stuff! LOL
  11. wow terryz, many MANY MANY seafans!
  12. I'm sorry but this is plain cruel... live fish key ring??? WT FFFFFFF.
  13. ehiems the best! very solid... and GF piping is fantastic.. very smooth and not rough at all.... Way to go!
  14. On really warm days like today ( though raining, the weather is nutty and so #$#$ hot), I realise it takes an extra 10 mins or so to chill down from 27 to 26 so it takes about 25 mins to 30 mins but the whole system temperature sometimes goes down to 25.8 degrees since the water in the sump is allot colder than the water in the display tank. The time it takes for the temp to go up back to 27 is about 1.5 hours or so with full daylight on. ( I'm using LED). Anyway some pics taken using Iphone 4 cause stuck at home next 2 weeks so boredom has set in : Zoos and Elegence (this was from Milch) BT and AT crossing paths Red Prata.. finally found a spot which seems to suit it's needs with low flow RICS!! The Survivor SPS in our tank which is the easy to keep Pink Birdsnest and the Octo Picture of the Taihitian butterfly.. hard to catch fella... Some of our common zoos and Cats eye bubble
  15. google for the win... you can find lots of websites that sell zoos, rics and other corals.. it's just a question of whether they are willing to ship to singapore and if they are, as a buyer are you willing to accept a high risk of DOA. Of course if you're lucky, all survive, if you're not, then be prepared to loose a couple of hundred bucks.
  16. LOL is that your island of BTAs? Nice.... next time next time....
  17. wah Jeremy... they are right man.. you silent killer... swee... VERY SWEe.. I love your pics!!! I am beginning to get SPS poison liow... ddiieeee
  18. if your tank is big enough, it will not be the violent one. I have one in my 4 footer and all the rest of my fishes except for a few ( 1 filamented, wrasse, and 2 yellow wrasses) are bigger than the 6 line so my 6 line is relatively docile compared to all the rest.
  19. love kate perry's new song ET!

  20. I LOVE Henry's anemones That is one beaut of a specimen
  21. I so want to have a space for little things in my next sump design.
  22. moral of story for all newbies ( though we all fall into the trap at one time or another) is.. to read read READ up on a fish before you buy. Hope for the best but be prepared for the worst. at least you saw them swimming out. so they ARE alive.
