bro kksg2000, min increment is $10. u gotta be louder than $1

nice work bro!

maxspect FTW

i think spare return pump should be the most important. if chiller down can use some icebags tahan awhile. if skimmer down, think can tahan a day or two. wavemaker is the least important so long as the return pump can circulate the system. but, in fact, most important is to have spare cash at all times. and 1 day leave.

someone adopted it. hope it can stay well in the new home. thanks.

dear mates, I'll have to give to shop if no one can adopt it over the weekend. any kind soul? thanks!

my zoas are very sensitive n dependant on lights, and I agree that they respond very well to white light. I never target feed, just drops of zooplankton to the tank. now 3 weeks since additional and they started to spread.

u can go down personally n buy too.

anyone know any lfs will adopt it? btw, this fish is reef safe. and not aggressive towards other fish.

on top, waste gas. adds to ur bill.

I share your excitement!

seachem n kent marine for me, i did tried brightwell, tlf and aquapharm. i felt seachem n kent are much more cost-effective.

cool! and very attractive new zoas tree. how long they going to establish colony on the tree?

if it isn't opening, you need to check on your water parameters. under proper lighting n water conditions it will open up. target feeding will improve it's growth n health.

hi all, I am giving away this fish - remora / slendersucker. It has been with me for a year when its only 5inch. now it has grown more than double and i can no longer house it in my 3ft tank. I hope someone with at least a 5ft tank to adopt this fish. The suckers will remove parasites is one of its features. And it will eat everything. Please contact me at 97401218. Thanks all Cheers

summary, 1, use rubber gloves 2, allow rocks to dry / semi dry 3, apply epoxy when they are 60% stiff 4, lay the rocks down prior to application. 5, apply to two rocks at a time 6, LET EPOXY TO FULLY HARDEN BEFORE PUTTING BACK TO TANK - 1 to 2 hours 7, DO NOT RISK YOUR LS

hi all, my friend's tank crash n all LS has pronounced dead last night. he used a two part epoxy to bond his rocks together, however the epoxy liquefied when it touches water. resulting in the skimmer going crazy, a layer of oil at the surface of the water. I had used such two.part epoxy before and have been very satisfied with it, upon hearing his account of application, I realize where the problem is. I did a search in this forum about epoxy but, there isn't any topics regarding it, so I'm trying to write one as layman as possible to assist any reefer who might want to use epoxy. all epoxy I came across in lfs are labelled " works even in water!" or similar ads. I thought it could bond the rocks while they are in the water. I tried a small piece of rock, but it fail. it turns slimy and then dissolved. I removed the remaining semi-solid part. So, epoxy don't work this way. the proper way is as the followings, firstly get a pair of rubber gloves, otherwise u might spend several days washing the epoxy glued to your hands. now, remove the rocks you wanted to join together from your tank. allow them to dry or at least not totally wet. moist is ok. I removed mine in the noon, place them around for the day, only to start working on them in the night. so you have the part A and part B ready, the hardener and the resin. mix the approximate amount you need. you can add some water to make the mixing easier, RO, tap water, saltwater is fine. just alittle will ease the job. the mixture will get stiffer, you can feel some heat from it as well. when it get 60% stiffer, you apply the epoxy to the rock. fully cover the contact point you want and additional to it's side to increase strength. it is best to attach the rocks when they are in lying position. because it takes 1-2 hours for them to fully harden. in these 2 hours, the rocks need to be motionless. if you are holding it, it won't work. patience is the key here, a fully harden epoxy sounds like concrete when u tap ur nails at it. you can swing around the rocks. I had a bonded over 10kg rocks and no issue. if it isn't fully harden and you put it in your tank, your LS will tell you the answer soon. if you want to construct a multi-rock building. only glue two rocks at a time. do not place several rocks, forming the shape and try to bond them together. u need a lot of luck and determination. form a two pieces bonded, then add one piece, bonded then add another. a good epoxy will end up stronger than your rock. when u decide to dismantle your rock building while retaining your nice looking rock, use sharp object (chisel etc) and attack the middle of the epoxy. if you slam the rock against the floor, likely you will get a few pieces of small rocks flying around. in conclusion, this is quite a work to be done, especially those building a large structure, and those who already had their tank running. so I consider this a one time job. take good care and patience. happy bonding! I have already done my rocks but unfortunately forget to take photos. I will try to bond some extra rock this coming weekend for better illustration. btw, I had used a few epoxy. all are same methods, but the best in terms of user friendly, value, and effective ness is alteco. hope this article can save a few lives in future. mod: I see the need to pin this at it appropriate category. cheers mates!

How many watt per gallon/litre of water? and what is the depth of your tank?

waa... otw now!

wah, 75! really cheapest.

yea, James got the details. btw, polyart operates 24/7.

clementi block 328. there's two shops, both do have atman pumps

i saw a wide range of atman pumps at c328.

i also encounter before. i suppose uplorry liao
