This week: Inclusion on extra 1 Par38 20k into the setup with photoperiod of 3hrs. Phosban added into the HOF to help manage phosphate levels. A fair amount of frags added into the system... All ok with nice PE. LS added: 1 x 6 line wrasse 3 x nano gobies (Latin name left in office) Dosing of C-balance increased to 3 x 1ml per day (equal parts) for now as realized a drop in Ca after addition of few new frags. Will try to upload some photos soon. Glad no casualties for now...

No news yet leh...

The whole stretch along changi road has plenty of such shops I buy all my plumbing and PVC stuff from them... Do try to "know" your stuff as prices "knowledge" based if u know what I mean... There is one particular store just before the junction of still road next door to a fresh water aquarium ran by a nice lady that is quite reasonably priced... Hope this helps

Bro pm me ur add and details k Tks!

Support abit... I take 1 frag each k cheers!

Thanks bro! Another option for me to dwell over nice tank you have btw... Another pics with lights on? Tks bro!

Understood... In that case my solite 1w blue led can still act as a moonlight feature while I have the led strip to compliment my par lovely! :thank you: I'm not exactly sure of the brand though... I was recommended by K from MP to get it... It's a single 1 ft strip that has quite a number of bulbs on it...

Items sold, mod pls kindly close thread... Sorry for delay

Thanks for the advice appreciated! Since space is limited, I'm probably gg to go for colors as first priority. If I'm looking at complimenting the par and at the same time having a moonlight effect would the red and blue alternating LEDs be alright or should I have 2 strips, 1 blue and the other alternating? By moonlight, can I confirm if I need to even turn it off? Or should I leave it 24/7? Tks again

Hi hi, Recently started my 1ft cube and have installed a par38(3 blue 2 whites). Thinking of adding 2 items: 1: another par38 so that I can mount them both side by side at an angle to cover more surface area in the tank. More importantly, 2 bulbs will help dilute the heavy shadows cast by 1 single build from the top. The par38s would run for about 6hrs per day. 2: a led light strip from madpetz which would run for 14-16hrs per day. I have 2 issues which I am pondering over and need to decide before I go ahead with the addition:- 1: for the par38, should I get another with 3blue & 2whites or should I get a 2blue & 3 whites or the other one with reds, blue and white? If I go for 3b2w my complete set would have 6b4w but if I go for the 2b3w I will end up with 5b5w. If I go for the latter with red the whole mix-up would be quite equal with an addition of red. Kinda spoilt for choice here 2: I have the option to go for a 100% blue led light strip or a led strip with alternating blue and red LEDs (resultant color is purplish). The main concern I have here is the advice that some red in the lighting would aid color enhancement of the sps. I kind of buy into this concept as alot of colorful sps in nature are quite near the surface where the red spectrum is still available but am not sure what the impact would be like if I have it on for such a long time. In general, due to the limited space, I place more emphasize on coloration rather then quick growth. If any kind souls out there can help me with some advice, it would be really appreciated. Thanks much in advance! :thank you:

Did my first dKH, Calcium and Mg test today: Using Tropic Marine test kits for the first time too dKH:8 Ca: 436 Mg: will update again forgot but think is 1300+ PH: 8.2 Salinity 1.026 Started dosing 50% recommended dosage (1ml/day while 2ml/day is recommended) of C-Supplement... wondering if i should get something to buff up magnesium as well... any suggestions? Took some pics to share of my existing livestocks (all LS from nice bros here ): Zoa: GSP: Zoa2: fav pink pink with purple/blue mouth: cat eye i think: solid pink, the photo like not right expression of color: the flame goby since its addition about 1 week... eating well: got a few frags from nice bros too just added in today as well... praying for the best....

Thanks bro!

another one saw a 6line recently? tks!

contemplating on getting another par 38 will it over kill?

No expert here but I think since it's so small might wanna consider some nutrient exporting products and regular water changes... Anyway I think dymax has a small airstone skimmer if u really want but I still fun think can go in... I'm sure got some other brands though... Other experts here can advice I think... 😊

Nice tank bro love plates u got there, mind pm me where u found them?

Pmed u bro

Bro I'm interested

Finally my Par38 has arrived nicely installed but I think I may want to get another set... Hopefully can cover more area. However, lights are gorgeous! FTS with 20k (3 blue 2 white) FTS with white led covered up. Courtesy of post-its Close up of tank blue and white: should I get another set of lights? Which type should I get? 12k, 14k or another 20k or the RGB par38 from madpetz? Any suggestions from experts out there?

Upzz to ur sale bro! Good luck nice piece there!

NH3 NO2 undetectable... Fishes are doing fine, shrimp and hermit all fine... Tuxedo urchin KOed over the weekend Can't wait for my par38 to come...

Just a little update, added Aqua Fauna Ultra Lith on Tuesday and so far all looks ok... still havent gotten my hands on the NO3 test kits too i deserve to get shot for being so lazy... hahaha... Well started by adding 1 nice purple flame goby and i think a pink spotted shrimp goby. Tank kinda boring now... cant wait to start loading man... my Par38 still hasnt arrive Any fish recommendation for my small small tank?

thanks for your kind words bro... i do suck at scaping...

Thanks for the compliments bro! eh i havent really loaded livestocks yet but since the tank is so small you should really consider doing at least once weekly if possible more times smaller amounts will also be good. helps to replenish other minerals and trace elements too i am aiming to do 1 50% water change weekly and in the middle of the week probably a 30% change, helps with siphoning off stuff from my barebottom tank too... I top up every other day with distilled drinking water from my office water dispenser tested the water seems ok la.... Not exactly a cycling expert though...
