  1. u can try octozin. continue feeding ur fishes wif garlic soaked food.
  2. IMO, use a refugium. that's why i m setting one up now.
  3. hi buddies, thks for the advice. need some more opinions though. here is how i've set up my refugium. refugium: 1ft x 1ft x 1ft. 5" grade 0 sand 11W 6700K light fine filter wool gravity siphon for downwards flow from main tank with check valve intact. Sicce Idra submersible pump for upwards flow to main tank. bioballs, seachem denitrator porous stones to house aerobic bacteria. cannister: fine filter wool coarse filter wool polyfilter rowaphos seachem phosguard chemi-pure AT, Tanzy and fellow reefers. what do u think??? main headache is the seachem denitrator. should i still continue using it at all? will it eventually become a nitrate factory?
  4. IMO, blue tang is more susceptible to ich than others.
  5. IMO, not good. leather also not good to keep. extremely toxic to ur water if it dies.
  6. juz top it up wif dechlorinated freshwater or even better RO water. no one will top off wif saltwater as salt does not evaporate. only water does.
  7. 3 wks is still too short to judge a dwarf angel. u neber know what will happen.
  8. sorry. wrong person. should be rockfish. mix up btw box and rock...... what the???!!!
  9. i've tried it b4. mix strotium, iodide, trace element, magnesium, kalk solution in my dripper and let it drip. results, u will get very thick and murky precipitate. dunno what it will do to ur tank. so i've stopped doing that.
  10. pm boxfish to find out more on diy PS.
  11. let ti accustom itself to ur tank first. but beware of it nipping stony and soft corals.
  12. go to the HDB website and look it up. from what i understand is any tank which is more than 5 ft is subjected to getting an approval from HDB.
  13. yes i was there in the evening to buy sand for my refugium and change my skimmer's surface attachment.
  14. went down to reborn yesterday. luckily neber buy. think later go ML buy better. what time they close shop???
  15. this means that octozin will cure whatever fish which is experiencing ich in the tank. u can c no more white spots on any of ur fish after the recommended treatment period. but then, ich will come back again if ur water parameters r not right again.
  16. point taken. i've oredi stop doing that. juz using the dripper to dose kalk now.
  17. AT, my sandbed in my tank is about 3' thick, and the sandbed in my refugium is 5' thick.
  18. huh? then how come Maxima got so many to sell. juz curious. dun mind, AT can u help me wif my topic on refugium. thanxs.
