Algae scrubbers are great !! One of my main filters , we can tell if the water is good by actually looking at the algae growth. Below is a picture of todays algae harvest, light green almost white algae says that the water lacks nutrients which is good. Regular removal of this kind of algae is a must. A upflow scrubber and a floating prototype one, lights are 660nm red grow light best so far

Kalkwasser in premixed saltwater
xiggie replied to waterperson's topic in New to the Marine Aquaria Hobby
I'm not sure if vinegar will make Sps have better PE .. But I don't feed my SPS but they have PE especially during lights off . -
To the left if the dam is the sungei buloh nature reserve bro .. Dunt anyhow go cast net or pang leng .. Recent news already reporting poachers spotted and warned ,To the right of the dam is fair game no one will catch u. If I'm not wrong there is a sign put up there in the small park for quite sometime already , forbidding people to even dig for clams there..

xiggie replied to waterperson's topic in New to the Marine Aquaria Hobby
To get better solubility on kalk , dissolve the amount of kalk in pure vinegar first then add the solution to the RO water, u will get lesser or sometimes no residue after. 1 teaspoon kalk to 30ml vinegar if I can remember correctly , always do that when I was dosing kalk -

xiggie replied to asg's topic in SPS and Advanced Reefkeepers Forum

Use NSW .. All elements will be in there already -
For Prawns need to go into the water @ the water breaker or the carpark side, at the dam area not so good and dangerous ... If u go there on weekends u can see some regular cast netters there , I don't recomend net casting there for young boys unless u are really hardcore netter who go chest deep water and cast..

xiggie replied to ytpmzy's topic in General Reefkeeping_
How u know the fish is having difficulty breathing? Are they at the top of water trying to jump out or breath from the air above? -

Sometimes u can get monster Kims @ Kranji salt side , need to have good tide and moonrise timings. Lots of prawns there too if u do net casting

Never tested the param, only salinity @ 1.025sg , someone in the wassap group did test n all was good , and so far I never had problems. But carrying them up to the flat is a hassle if u don't have a trolley.

Mine took more than 3week to come out .. And bytheway I don't feed them ... Think they get food from the fish poo that's always floating around coz I don't have sand .
-
Yes I do , and I saw u at lck201 that day remember?
-
They come out during lights off , that picture was take @ 8 the morning , 4 days is still too early for the coral to be stable ,

No problem bro , everyone entitles to their own opinion, why I say 50% wC .. Coz I've seen real live , not read from the net or anywhere ...90% monthly wC with nsw on a full Sps big tank. 50% wC on a Sps nano. All I can say is , keep it simple ,don't think too much ,be it wC with nsw or rodi/salt mix ,wC is a good method to bring down nitrates. Oh and when using nsw u still can adjust the parameters before adding to the tank , plus point is they come with beneficial bacteria unlike Ro saltmix.
