Contact 90020585, Jarrett to deal. Pick up at siglap or kembangan mrt.

U mix all 3? but why?

If you guys have better methods to get ur fishes feeding, do share. Would like to learn from others as well.

Wow, very nice. Definitely well thought out. The main idea is u want them to start feeding on something initially, mainly for survival purposes, so if they are already feeding on artemia, thats good. After that u should start introducing the pellets like tdo in small amounts, but in frequent feedings. I had mine in qt with a pair of clown fishes, they may or may not have picked up the feeding habit of the clownfish, but its helpful because the pellets dont go to waste or break down if uneaten by the cardinals. I heard flake food also helps to promote initial feeding, but its too messy for my preference. Once u notice one or two feeding on the pellets, u can cut down on the artemia, eventually the rest will learn to feed on pellets. Theres also the argument where fishes will prefer the artemia over pellets. If u notice ur fishes spitting out pellets, u need to cut back on the artemia drastically or they will just carry on waiting for more artemia each day. Im no expert in getting fishes to eat, but that worked for me. So hopefully u guys will succeed in getting ur fishes to eat as well.

once again beautiful shots of corals and fishes

Hi bro, thanks for the kind comment. There really isnt a proper way to "train" them i guess. But what i realise helps alot is to keep a larger amount since these fishes initially are really timid. I started off with feeding frozen for almost a week in the evenings (get them eating and familiarise with new surrounding, also they get used to ur hand being in the tank when feeding time) Overtime, slowly added pellets in the afternoon. Took me quite awhile before i noticed the first cardinal eating it. After awhile, i guess the rest just followed along to eat the pellets. I was initially feeding new life spectrum, and they spat it out, than i switched over to coral frenzy and TDO, and notice better feeding response. I guess type of pellet also makes a diff. It helps to get a peaceful fish already feeding on pellets to mix in with the cardinals, sort of train the cardinals that pellets are consumable. Haha, i found another one, so makes it 12 now. Actually wanted only 6 - 8 pieces. But heard these guys hard to get them feeding, so bought extra. But all 12 eating well now.

Day 57 Zeovit Nothing much to update, following closely to my zeovit dosing regime. Added couple of new sps corals including staghorns, an aussie coral, ice fire echinata and couple of frags from Dr Ced, and a few other reefers. Tanks pretty much full, will stop stocking corals and watch it grow for now. Thank you all for the corals that were contributed or purchased from you. Always nice to view other reefer's tanks at the same time. Kh:7.28, Ca: 440, Mg: 1560, Never test for no3 or po4 Fish list: 12 Blue eye cardinals, 2 Yellow cories, 1 Starry blenny, 1 sixline wrasse, 1 melanurus wrasse, 1 Blue tang, 2 Black clowns Thinking of adding a pair of orchid dottyback, any advise for this fish? FTS with white balance, can't get any colours to show with raw camera image, this has a closer resemblance. I really love staghorns! Manage to get my hands on couple new stags! Currently got red, blue, green, yellow and an aussie stag with blue tips =D Thanks for viewing.

From the video itself, looks absolutely stunning with plenty of features I've never come across, seems interactive as well. Can't wait to see your review of it. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for sharing bro. Very impressive DIY skills!

Haha, i offer bleaching services, not colouring services.

I think reef depot has an acrylic viewer made by them, but not sure where can purchase. Anyone knows?

wah very chio sia bro! Definately worth bidding for. But i got no space. haha

Definitely a baddy

Wow, thats some hardcore feeding. I only feed my fishes twice a day, afternoon and night. With just TDO and some algae pellets for the tang.

Wow! Half a bucket of salt! Dame siong bro! How often u change water? Shouldnt be too regular i suppose with ur water volume

Hi bro, nature will take its course, so i wouldn't worry too much, but give it more time to cycle. The probable cause might be plenty of die off on your dead rocks and also the fact that dead rocks take much longer time to cycle completely compared to using live rocks.

Spotted air lifter pump today at aquarist chamber, the freshwater side.

Can pm price for black cap anyone?

Love seeing all the equipments in their packaging waiting to be set up. Like a kid opening hes toys. Is that an ADA co2 cylinder??

Could possibly be flatworms or planaria. Cant tell with no pics bro.

Haha, nope, but i love the looks and functions found on the AI, no money, cant afford one! haha

Think he meant full tank shot. lol

Love the scape!!!! So much potential!
