  1. first of all, i wld advise u to get ur lights changed to one of higher intensity be it T5s or MH. as FLs can barely sustain the good being LPS. since u r not running a chiller, u might wanna consider T5s with the addition of some cooling fans to aid in lowering the heat load. take a step at a time, maybe u wld like to provide us wif more info on ur tank parameters, equipment, etc....... as lights and temp r not the only impt parameters to note for a successful reef. LFS info can be found here. no use recommending LFS, as stock for corals varies btw LFS all the time. u will hv to take ur chance to go take a look physically. happy reefing.
  2. bro, thx a lot for the specs H&S Skimmer if i m not wrong shld be F150-2001. TW6 Teco Chiller 250W DE super overdrive....... but again, who will complain abt overskimming, oversizing chiller more light intensity and current.......... i am oso on the overdriven route,
  3. hi surfedelic, very nice nano tank and unique rockscape. kudos to u. care to share more in depth tank specs?
  4. really hope ur friend finds his dog soon.
  5. good on u Midman, u took the effort to dig up the info. but be forewarned that the treatment might not stop at juz 1 bottle (depending on ur tank conditions and the vol). so it might cost up to a fair bit to last the entire duration of treatment.
  6. if u dun mind using medication, can try waterlife's octozin. it is stronger than myzaxin.
  7. Sim Lim Tower. think it can be found in the basement...... not really sure though.
  8. IME, nothing special to speak of. juz wash wif salt water.
  9. shop ard in Sim Lim Tower. i hv forgotten the exact address.
  10. on a serious note, after all the hoo haa settling down period, many will gradually find themselves as "2nd class citizens" to a certain degree.
  11. if u want, i can offer u some poor 2 cents as i m oso using a juwel rio 180 for my marine setup. click the link below. happy reefing and pls dun use LS to cycle anymore.
  12. dun get what u r trying to say. but nevertheless, that's a photo of a beautuful HK lass.
  13. why only mention yumas and not floridas....... joking. i 2nd the suggestion 2.
  14. shhh!!!! why tell everyone??? but again, i lost 40% of my precious to the crash......... so pls dun pm me asking for rics. *sobbing uncontrollably*
  15. interested parties who r interested in studying in australia can find out more at IDP, Orange Grove Road, RELC Building.
  16. the debates and arguments of Berlin, Jaulbert, Bare tank coupled with power skimming, mixed system, etc........ has been going on for ages with inconclusive results. majority of the americans seems to employ the jaulbert method coupled with a plenum. while the europeans seems to prefer the berlin. some japanese hv been known to hv bare tanks coupled with a powerful skimmer. IMHO, thee is no hard and fast rule as to which is better. think it all boils down to individual preferences. juz me 2 cents.
  17. i m in too........ but i dunno what i can contribute joz gotten sick and tired working in the engineering field........ so many projects...... so many headaches........
  18. depending on what flowrate u want ur return to be. so let's say u wanna use a aquabee 3000L, one of the options will be to go to marinedepot.com to find out a similar rated pump for 3000l.
  19. i think Aquabee pump is quite good. am using one for return myself. head loss calculator from RC: http://www.reefcentral.com/calc/hlc2.php
  20. wolfie: like wat i said, do wat u think and feel is right. u r the one who is gonna reap wat u sow in the end.
