  1. ADA tanks are known for their quality and build, so it has been tried and tested to be able to withstand the pressure from saltwater. If you are getting it custom made, it will still be safer to go for tanks with a thicker glass.
  2. IME, mine moved from the rock I placed it on to the sand bed and stayed there for months even till now. My small fishes (Eviota) hangs around but no harm done thus far (keeping my fingers crossed). Marine hobby is a strange world. There is a certain level of un-predictability .
  3. Link to the article doesn't work. Very interesting concept and tank!
  4. Any good methods to scare stray dogs away while you're cycling in the night? :oP

      Simple la, just wear AVA uniform will do the trick ^^

  5. Lol... I just view it that it is about to kiss another gorilla with its lips extended.
  6. Check out the dry dock in this thread.
  7. You can always put it on the opposite side if space permits. That way, the wire will be hidden.
  8. Lol... I doubt so, since it looks like its meant for sliding sideways and not upwards.
  9. It will be pretty cool if this is what you will be getting.
  10. Without tarot cards or dices, I'm pretty sure once target post count is achieved, sales thread will start.
  11. Nice find. I like the cappuccino colours...
  12. As long as there is flow to reach the corner, it should be fine.
  13. Have you read through the pinned topics on this section? There's one on
  14. Pls don't feel discouraged. I believe it is not our intention to be a wet blanket to you, but to provide an ideal solution to the current problems that you face. First of all, the health of your livestock and corals are utmost importance at this point of time, and most of us feel that they would be better off sold to experience reefers with stable reef systems to take care of them, while you do plenty of research to understand why things have to be done in certain ways (ie proper cycling, no shortcut) to ensure the survivability of your livestock and corals. I must say that the learning curve in this hobby is a lot steeper than other hobbies, and you need to thoroughly understand them before embarking on this reefing journey. Most of us have been through this stage, and we try to prevent others from following our mistakes. Your answer to the following question would tell us if you truly understood the necessity of cycling... do you know why your fishes died and your corals are not opening up?
  15. I did that previously, but it took like forever and they still won't fall. I thought they would dry up and die before dropping off the rock.
  16. Still considering... no concrete plans atm. Looking at your mini carpets, it reminds me that I need to shift mine to another rock. Any bright ideas on how to go about it? Use frozen distilled ice cubes? These guys can be really stubborn when they have their grip on the rocks...
  17. Interesting concept. However, the gaps are not wide enough, so instead of better circulation, it might end up being dead spots. It really depends on how you place your wave makers though...
  18. Fast & Furious man! All that extra real estate as compared to your previous setup sure adds up to the fun for ya!
  19. I like the blue coral beauty. That dash of orange at the bottom is perfect.
  20. Welcome back! You might wanna consider raising the height of the light set. It can actually be quite bright, so you have to give your corals some time to adapt to the strong lighting. I'm curious... why did you ask the tank maker to construct the overflow box slightly off the left side? Just for the return piping?
  21. Not gonna add one more PAR38? The spotlight effect is still present.One more in the middle will be perfect.
  22. Precisely. Hence my initial advice to sell everything away, do research before re-starting again. Why would you want to use these fishes and corals, which can still be saved (while they are still alive, of course), as a learning experience?
  23. While cleaning the tank, my blue neon goby pair came to "clean" my hands. Looking on the bright side, they are really bold now! On the other hand, my hands are probably dirty or with dead skin, in which they are interested in...
