  1. Spare some prata and I take for you with my macro lens
  2. Am I color blind? I just started on my 2nd bottle of KZ AAHC.
  3. testkit also need to borrow? Maybe it's out-of-stock everywhere?
  4. Possible to get them on prepared food one. Oh ya your reef should be big enough to house one. Want to try or not?
  5. Iron based are dark brown while Al based are white
  6. Another one I considering. See the photos from the net always showing them with SPS in the background, they are SPS predator so stricty no no for reef tank unless you have a very large SPS tank
  7. Stanley, Alfa referring to Al-based media like Biophos 3. Don't get the wrong one as Biophos 2 are Iron Based.
  8. elevating the pump could cause restriction in the inlet and that will shorten the lifespan of the pump.
  9. Lol.... I forgot about the Harlequin one. In case pple think i very cheapo keep free prata here free kopi there, all these meant as joke one hor. But then meet outside for prata and kopi and no problem one lar... wu lai wu ke (got come got go) one then everything also easy. Yeap if you got design to show even better so everyone chip in idea to help you.
  10. You talking to me? If the bubbles don't merge to form bigger bubbles and eventually burst then how is it going to extract out of the proteins? Been using RO/DI for almost 1.5yrs
  11. Isn't that the way skimmers supposed to work? slowly merge and form into larger bubbles at the neck and then burst and push the proteins up and out into the collection cup?
  12. you could always tune the skimmate slightly wetter and that will solve the problem of the skimmate collecting on the neck.
  13. Aiya that day you see me at SL you just keep quiet and sit there smile smile only. Another time lar lol. Sometimes you come to think about those silly incident also quite funny right. Anyway what's over is over already and I guess we all learn from those incidents.
  14. haha..... we still not yet lim kopi at SL yet ah Like I always said, chat over internet too dangerous and too many times miscomm and end up so much problem, so better just take those comments with a pinch of salt. I've at mant times guilty of that too.
  15. You still keeping SPS? welcome back to the money pit
  16. got cartoon called lego? Hmm... maybe that is before I am born lol.
  17. Stop all the return pump then use a tubing and suck it out. At the same time use one ###### end of the tubing (while it is ###### water) to scrap it off from the baffle wall.
  18. No lei, to get dwell time in one step calculation. Take your example, turn over rate = 5000 l/h, volume of skimmer = 50 L Dwell time = Volume of skimmer / turn over rate. L / (L/hr) = 50 / 5000 = 0.01 hrs = 0.01*3600 = 36sec. So you will know the exact skimmer turnover rate as well as dwell time in 1 single calculation. Yours requires 2 step lol... actually both of us are right lar just yours 1 step more.
  19. There were some issues with the BK during that time. Despite the BK having overall better specs on paper we still decided to go with the deltec and we never look back after that.
  20. Must send you back to secondary school liao. Should be Volume of skimmer / turn over rate. L / (L/hr)
  21. Dwell time = contact time. Volume of water in skimmer main body divide by turn over rate. Talking about these then reminds me of the days when I was discussing on my skimmer to replace my ex-beckett and talking to Alfa about all those stuffs. You don't need to extend the height, just increase the overall volume in the skimmer will do. Too high skimmer also not easy for maintenance. You want to climb a ladder just to remove the collection cup?
