lightningstrike

my friend, students r entitled to extra baggage.

eagerly awaiting to see ur "operation".

ur PO4 is 16ppm??? what test kit u r using??? it is way 2 high.

think u can drill a glass sump with the proper tools. if not, as suggested, run ur RD in-sump.

dun be modest, i c a pinky birdnest at the bottom right of the AT pic.

AR, I'm more interested in the close up pics of the "coloured sticks" in the background.

most likely, they wun. at most, they will be disorientated for a couple of days.

with all due respect to hamannbmw, we will split the colony only if hamannbmw is willing. so tentatively the colony shall go to, 1. lightningstrike 2. Ekia 3. davivluvfishes how does that sound? shall we agree on a time to go to hamannbmw's place to view and share the colony?

anyone wanna share this???

u'll hv to ask AT if there r any left worth taking........

hi ryan, u shld hv been more careful, for all u know, there has been spate of similar cases in SRC. not rubbing salt on ur wound (u know i wun). juz be on ur guard when trading in items in future. happy CNY.

yazid is selling his here. for new TW6, u can go to aquatechnic.

smyee, i am still waiting for ur reply.

purple yumas sold out @ reborn.

bro, best of luck with ur studies and life.

useful life of polyfilter very much depends on ur tank's bio load, filtration, etc. polyfilter is not reusable, it is good in absorbing ammonia, heavy metals, PO4, etc; but it also absorbs useful trace elements, etc. as what amteo has said, it is good to keep some on stand by in case of an emergency.

bro, cannot expect sps to be in a holding tank with 1x 150W MH hung almost 5ft away to sustain the colors over a wk. not to mention the water parameters.

u shld be able to get it from DC Spore easily. ur purpose is to re-partition ur sump, IMHO, silicon sealants like Aquarium RTV Silicon, Selleys, etc will do the trick. but pls note that no matter what sealant u choose to use, the longer the bonding period, the better it is. normal recommended bonding period shld be btw 2 to 4 wks.

if u guys had been there on CNY eve, u will find ur 25 buckaroos well spend indeed.

IMHO, u r experiencing the "New Tank Syndrome". Biological filtration is still not at its peak or it is inadequent. be patient and do ur regular water changes (preferably with RO/DI), keep a close watch on ur parameters. enhanced mechanical filtration, e.g. efficient skimming will help reduce DOC in ur tank.
