Are they eating well? I think you need to test your water parameter and do a 25 to 50% change. Dont add any more LS and either you leave the tank running for 1 or more months or get UV/ozoniser or find out which water parameter/s goes wrong and correct it. It is sad but just treat this as a lesson and move on to improve your reefing knowledge. Just my 2 cents worth opinion. More advices will come from senior reefer.

Sorry to use the thread. To Orsony, cant take your blue tang as it is too big for my tank. Lol. If buy, then my purple tang who is the king now will step down....lol. Thanks again. : )

Thanks for the confirmation. Good luck to all interested buyers. : )

equipment - not all LFSs provide such service and must see how much also....one must assess the trouble in getting second hand item vs buying brand new and determine which is a better option. LS - any reef doctor to recommend for check... hehe

Hence, buying second hand item always carries certain level of risk. Not easy for newbie like us to detect fishy item. Is there a feature for rating seller?

LCK got Sohal Tang......hehe...this week, tangs rule the market....lol....but pls confirm before going....

This is open market where willing buyer meets willing seller. No comment on the transaction. Will leave to the readers to judge. Anyway, based on your act, can see you are one good seller. Hehe....next time got good thing to sell, do inform me and i will keep a lookout for your items....can deliver to sengkang and got any more free item? Stay cool.....weather is hot out there....okay...ppl posted iwarna got purple tang.....so maybe got PT shipment this week....must go look around leh...hehe.

Lucky still got ppl selling 40 to 45 in the sell off section. Don't know who is the lucky chap who bought the yellow and purple tang from Bro Gary for just $80. : )

Mushroom likes wave....put a wavemaker infront of the mushroom..... : X Wil, get ready to receive sms....lol

@@ ard......@@ into the mirror...do i look like a wolf....lol....

hahahaha..... bro Desuz selling his RSM. Maybe you can post in the forum, hopefully good wolves will come and give you good buy and pass you some knowledge. Hehe.

Bro, AM posted that they have AB Tang. U better check with them. All the best.

U also cycle...then can meet at old tampines road and cycle down...hehehe...usually saturday or sunday around 8 am. Can imagine how beng u are based on your bruce lee picture....lol....expecting my little devil end of the year, trying to ensure i do not give up due to new born. Certaintly hope i can substain this. My big devil does allow me to go farm but at times...guilty of not accompanying her....will try to post to seek comment. Thanks.

If you don't mind, can go to OTF at pasir ris farm. Think they are selling Baoyu nano at discounted price. cheapest is like $128 but need to confirm. There is another swift pte ltd at pasir ris, think equiment with LS = below 1 k. If you can afford, buy off the shelve will save you lots of time. Customise may not be cheap but you will definitely get the sense of accomplishment and satisfaction after completing everything. Here got lots of good bros and sisters, can sell you cheap things or give FOC. Hence it can certainly help to save and make customisation cheaper but then, it is definitely time consuming. Welcome to the club.

my tank standard not there...so dont dare to post. Just appreciating everyone's nice tank. Me chiong farm only but usually take public and does alot of road marching...wahahaha....hence...paiseh to jio you all to road march with me lar..... Usually will cycle down to pasir ris farm in the morning - saturday or sunday...if you see me riding a blue or white mountain bike...that is me...hehehe....i may look "dao" but definitely friendly from inside....wahahahahah Yup, i stay sengkang. Hoping one day will not only chiong farm but chiong shipment....wahahahaha

He showed his new member inclusion - Should be The AB Tang...hehehe....

Thanks. Appreciating yr progress. Keep it coming. Hehe.

Hi, for coraline, to my knowledge, you need blue light. Blue light, i think there are a few - blue plus, artinic. , etc. Apart from light, water condition must be good and high calcium level. Hope this helps. : )

Bro, can pm me where you got those red mushroom....very nice....me also collecting mushroom and zoas...hehe....

Yes, everything needs calibration. After working with lab ppl, understand thermometer also need calibration on yearly basis to pass the audit check. Thanks all. : )

I haven use seaweed behind...maybe u test and tell me...hehehe....should be lar....as long is raw with no seasoning...should be....maybe can check got organic type...hehehe

wow...u got 3 huh ....what are the 3...Pinpt, milwaukee and Macro?

one more thing to add....i am super super newbie....hahaha...hence my opinion can be ignored and corrected by senior reefer....hehe....hopeing to learn more also. : )

IMO, the answer should be yes if you are not adding any LS. If the water has live rock without LS, turning on the skimmer will not have nothing much to skim off the water. For the FR, it depends on what you intend to remove or reduce. If for PO, if you let the water run and do not introduce light, algae unlikely to grow. For FR, you can decide to put phos remover or carbon or both or just have phos in your FR and place carbon and bio home or ball in your sump. Nevertheless, it will be good to turn on. Think there is no hard and fast rules. Some ppl will put rocks to reduce the NO in your tank, some will have refugium, mangrove, etc. The water also plays a part - RO/DI or NSW or just tap water which left for weeks and has all the remover solutions added to the water. Hope to hear from senior reefer to share their experience and professional advice. : )

hmmm....it look like straw but red in colour....usually sell with them attached to the rock. For me, i will rinse it either with tap or saltwater. For the rock, i will dip it for few minutes in tap water to kill off parasite. Then i just dump it into my tank. Think should be able to last for weeks. For the seaweed, LFS does sell the clip or hanger but comes with a price. : )
