Cloudy water during cycling
VelvetAirwaves replied to Kamarudin Ariffin's topic in New to the Marine Aquaria Hobby
Bro, by the way, could you share with us what equiptment you are using? And also, the water parameters. You didnt mention at the start, it would be good to test the water and let us know so we can pinpoint any mistakes that you might potentially make. -

Hey bro, I want to tell you that you are on the right track, let the prawn fully decay and let your water clear up on its own. Try not to turn on the lights as the spike in nutrients will spark off an algal bloom if the lights are on. Right now just leave your return pump running to get the water flowing. It looks like your tank is at its peak of the cycle, it should clear up from here on out. Btw, from the picture it looks like you have some corals, but they look artificial, or am I seeing things? -
Nice! Softies and lps tank. Looking hot bro!

I think for bigger tank its okay to follow the teaspoon method, smaller tank abit difficult to measure 1.8 teaspoons. Imo, measuring spoon is the easiest.

tank in aircon room.
VelvetAirwaves replied to Evolutionz's topic in New to the Marine Aquaria Hobby
I dont think the evaporation rate would differ that much from chiller, but do update, it should be interesting. -

VelvetAirwaves replied to Evolutionz's topic in New to the Marine Aquaria Hobby
Just wondering, why would the water evaporate faster? In my experience use fan vs aircon chill, the evap rate a lot less for air condition. But vs chiller is a different story. -
And your cup coral looks like it going to cmi soon. It seems that its getting too much light. Maybe you can take a better picture?

I suggest moving your monti higher up to an area with more flow. It seems like your plate is on a piece of rock, I would suggest placing it on the sand bed with moderate to low lighting.

VelvetAirwaves replied to Evolutionz's topic in New to the Marine Aquaria Hobby
Well, my tank is fairly new, I only have a polyp of a mushroom to test. So not much to test with yet. Before the decomm however, the corals seemed to colour up better in the colder temp. Ideally I would like it to remain at 25, it was the temp where I had most success in terms of growth and colouration. -

VelvetAirwaves replied to Evolutionz's topic in New to the Marine Aquaria Hobby
My tank is in my bedroom, the ambient temp at night is roughly 23 deg, in the day I use a fan to cool to about 25-26 deg. -

Imo, it depends on what the temperature is in your room at night. If the fluctuation is too big then might want to invest in a heater to control the temperature at night. -

At the end of the day, its not worth the hassle to keep buying. I made that mistake once, and I am damn happy I bought my di unit. But you can try la, nobody stopping you hahaha

Seems like you were right bro, after a few weeks, my no3 is now 0ppm ^^

YOUR CATS ARE SO CUTE. -
No leh, everything still happy and swimming around

Hi there, I would agree with you that that might be the cause. Regarding whether I did test for ammonia and nitrite, yes I did ,also for n03 at the end of the cycle. All tested 0 before I added life stock. I have a hunch my rocks are the ones giving me the problems.
