kimkim23 replied to kimkim23's topic in New to the Marine Aquaria Hobby
Can I check with ya all what water shd I use for the evaporated water and 10-20% water changes every week?heard bout Tap water and how bad it is to a reef tank. So the way to do it, is it to buy btl distilled water from the supermarket and then use salt mix on it and use it for water top ups and changes?I don't have transport so buying seawater from FS ain't possible, due to the weight. I'm also using redsea saltmix for cycling my tank now and heard that it ain't very gd too so hope to change the saltmix after I finish my current pack. Is it fine to mix diff saltmix-water togather?I hope I won't need to recycle again 0.o". I'm guessing diff brands contain diff ingridents so I will js have to retest the water quality again.And adjust te proper levels back. but that's just my assumation of course =x -

hmm using "mr aqua bio power filter 60" guess its too small for any power.maybe will look out for some cheap china brand wavemakers as they wont be overpowering.. ytd i tried a GH tester kit.. i try until 12 drops the kit still pale orange cover,then i hoot until 20 drops then become orange..kaoz..y like that har?wonder will it ever turn green...anything i can put in the water to softer it up? -

oo bro i actualli where exactly shd i put the probe inside the water(higg,mid,low area)..but i guess where oso can la hor.. er..started cycling with the live rocks and sand i gotten from bro steven, he recommend me to on my skimmer only after 2 weeks as i'm still culitvating the bacterias.. And so i realised my tank dont realli have much water movement as the output from my external filter is kindna weak,shd i get a mini wavemaker now and put in my tank to assist in the cycling?coz i know eventually i will get one as i put in LS nxt time after the cycle process is finished to get rid of dead spots.but will it help the initial cycling part? -
