  1. is your mushroom getting flow bounds off from front glass? but seems like they are happy
  2. UPs and DOWN first was green and red alage... though just a bit but is definitely a threat luckily blue-legged hermit come to the rescue and clean it up. Then discovered fin-rot on true perc ... followed by the 2 fire & flame gobies Dosed melafix for 4 days and cured them. 25% Water change Now the true clown rot fin is back to normal and fire goby has longer fins Then true clown gana ich... wah problematic felle. Luckily it starts to feed again ... eating pellet with garlic soon after ich is gone. Of course water change after water change. Diatoms quietly built up after 2 months. Blue-legged hermit manage to clear or maybe push away those on the rock but not a clean job bought 3 astrea snails and they cleaned up the rock but diatoms appear on sand bed this time the hermit does a better job and the sandbed is more or less ok found out that seems like seachem phosguard is good at removing silicate so just add in the sump and hope for the best. Anyway silicate measurement is zero. Also manual removing it using cotton to clean the glass. Also found aiptasia spreading in the sump. Not really sure if it is aiptasia cos they are not fully grown yet... white color .. starts off like thick spiderweb then slowly grow into a mini aiptasia shape... anyway drain the sump and wipe off all using tissue... with phosphate very much under control... the green stuff inside the glue at the edges of the tank also starts to fade off.... nice to see that Hope tank starts to stabilize after all these hoo-ha
  3. did pinnacle close early? went there twice at 5+ and 6pm door already closed
  4. what's the secret, tips & tricks to keep Zoa happy?
  5. replace the simlim blue led with a aquazonic 28cm T5 actinic blue then realize how dim the led was just hope the soft coral like it
  6. seems like seachem PhosGuard has good review
  7. if there is already coralline alage on the rock then it should spread with the proper calcium level? already starting to spread in my new nano Using D-D H2Ocean salt. green alage extinguished but now busy fighting diatoms
  8. the snails really eat up the diatoms or just push them away... and they float then settle elsewhere in the tank?
  9. I also find it wasteful to buy prawn but to use 1 for cycling or you can get forzen mysis shrimp cubes I did that and i think my cycling should be ok ba... and the mysis can be kept frozen and use to feed fishes later
  10. especially mushroom / yuma .. quite common to see green alage on the rock quite a risk to put in main tank though likely my blue-legged hermit will remove it
  11. besides jbj nano glo led, what other light is proven suitable for chaeto ?
  12. maybe my sump not suitable thanks bro anyway
  13. so envy you guys can keep chaeto alive so far no luck got to get another mike tyson fist from iwarna again ... some other time
  14. those that break off and got shoot out to the main tank is really a headache
  15. Hi, Those who have successfully kept chaeto, may I know how long do you ON your light? follow the sun or reverse?
  16. just wana keep these mushroom nice and vibrant all parameters looks ok accept PH a bit low anyway the 2 pieces that floated out already reattached
  17. melafix proven can cure fin rot for my true clown, fire and flame gobies
  18. I thought all those stripe in simlim are the same
  19. for the meanwell power supply / driver need some advices ... one end is the wire for AC plug and the other end black/red is the DC to connect first LED (+) and last LED (-) ?
  20. Bro jamesong can show a pic or describe how the star cree led is fitted on to the aluminum heatsink? snap on, solder on, tie or screw?
  21. if i'm only keeping mushroom, yuma, star polyp and zoa... water depth is 30cm max, do I need Cree/len?
