Hi all, I'm giving away a very healthy 4-striped damsel (3-3.5cm) as it's bullying my other fishes. ): Collection at sembawang. PM me if interested.

Decided to give away the damsel. PM me if keen. Collection at sembawang.

WTT 4 striped damsel for any small non aggressive fish. Trading because my smaller goby and dottyback have been getting attacked by this guy ): Perhaps cos my tank is a nano. But if you have a bigger tank, this shouldnt be an issue.

Hi there! If anyone has spare live rock they're trying to clear or give away, do let me know. You may PM or contact me at 98803722. Thank you in advance! ((:

Hi everyone! I'm planning to start a nano tank from scratch for my new home office space. Meaning i'll have to source for: Tank Filter Lights Pump Wavemaker Nutrients My rough plan is to inhabit it with: 2-4 reef fishes (clown, goby) 2 soft corals Live rock Live sand I understand that bioload concern will be an issue. But can this be helped by having a good filtration system and more regular water changes(weekly)? If so, what is a good overhead filter to get? Appreciate any other form of advice you may have for someone embarking on such a project. Thank you! PS: would've loved 3ft tank like I had in the past but space constraints ):

Hi there people, my friend wants to start a nano tank after seeing mine. So was just wondering if anyone has a nano tank to spare. If you do, it'd be GREATLY appreciated! (: Do drop me a pm or reply if you do! Thx so much! (: THANKS from my friend as well. (:

Thx a bundle zabz! and okay noted!

Hi does anyone know the contact no for ng couple fish shop (near ah beng)? Wanna check whether they still have my lights cos I live quite far and want to avoid disappointment. Thx! (:

Hi tropic! Erm if my tank is about 450l including sump vol, would a resun cl28 be good enough?

Hi there bros and sis! I need some recommendations with regards to a suitable brand of chiller for my 3ft tank. As i am a student, your advice would be greatly critical in my budgeting (which obviously isnt much) and all so i'd really hope help is out there. Thank you! (: And if any of you have second hand chillers for sale that is suitable for me, do contact 93363253. Thx! (:

I'm looking for a chiller for my 3ft tank which does not require me to have it running throughout the day continuously. As for the lightings, i'm looking for a T5 4 bulbs set up. Hopefully not used for more than a year as i got a light setup from someone for quite a price and in the end the ballasts were very corroded, making the lights useless. My budget isn't too huge so i most prob cannot afford those huge brands. Anw my no is 93363253. Do msg if you have any deals for me. Thx! (:

Anw can MOD close this thread, thx. NO MORE FREEBIES FOR ME.

Hey ducados, i did not intentionally play you out or whatever. I really searched like crazy to get a transporter, even asked my gf's dad to help and i feel damn bad about it cos in the end his car too small.. I really am sorry that you feel the way you currently feel but I DID NOT play you out for fun or purposely. Anw i've already started my tank and it is in the process of cycling. Not 130 gallon anymore. 3 feet tank. And yes i am getting live rocks but i'm buying them this time round babareef... anw i REALLY APPRECIATE all that you have done for me Ducados, honestly. I'd be overseas tmr so still can post tday...

Hi Djvin, i am not setting up a 130 gallon already. I'm doing a 3 feet tank, nearly half the proposed size. So yeah. And i should really close that thread. I'm not asking for free stuff anymore.

Hi bro i'm sorry for not being able to buy the whole set but is it possible for you to sell me your live rocks. Just the rocks. Thx!

Hi bros and sis, i'm looking for live rocks. If you have, could you sell them to me or if possible give them? Many thx! Preferred if staying in central area of Spore. (: Thx!

Hey bros and sis, i'd like to buy at least 30kg of live rocks. So if you're planning to decom or sth or have the spare live rock then I could be your potential client. But of course if you want to give free also can haha. anw do state your price too thx! Prefer those staying in central part of sing like sembawang, yishun or khatib. But can consider others. (: so just reply can le. thx!

@Kenny1111 hello. Where's ah bxxg farm?

@comycus wow okay! Thx for your advice! Really helpful! I'll definitely try working in that way! Yeah I think it's also better cos then I'd feel a greater sense of ownership over my tank! (: thx. Time to start attacking pasar malam sales haha! @gobyluver okok thx for the recommendation bro!

Hmmm okay I understand most of your concerns that prolly I might be asking for the equipment but later eventually either dumping the whole idea of setting up an aquarium or worst still just leaving the items in the lurch after getting them. I assure you that I am really determined to set up a tank now, prolly not reef but a fowlr. I want a sustainable and meaningful project so I'll definitely put in every effort to make it work. My previous nano worked. A tank system might prove to be a tad different but I won't give up so easily. So yeah. This is my true intention.

Yeah agreed. Anw after reading things like what tunicate and choose a display name have said, i'm gg for a fowlr tank for now and dropping a 6 ft tank idea and going prolly for a 2-3ft tank instead. Thx for the advice guys. (: Helpful practical info. (:

After reading all your responses, i really do have alot to think about. Honestly i do have an idea on how expensive rearing marine fishes can be because i had a 22 gallon nano before until i had to shift hse then my mum gave it away. But now i'd like to try at it again because i miss the experience i had then when i had a fowlr tank. But this time im prolly not trying a nano I'd prefer a bigger and more rectangular tank which allow my fishes more free swim space and also i'd like the experience to set up the sump and etc on my own. Maybe i didnt put it out correctly in my first post. I am a student reefer who has a budget, not a big one but at least i have a budget but what some of you guys are making it sound like is i have NO MONEY at all and am begging for everything to start a tank. FYI i am only asking for help so as to reduce whatever cost of my aquarium i can reduce possibly (as many of you already know i'm a student reeefer thats why i'm trying to cut equipment cost as much as possible) and moreover i am only asking for things from people who think they do not need their old aquarium equipment anymore and rather than just let it rot at home, they may as well give it to someone who'll maximise the utility of the equipment. And whatever i cannot get here i'll still go and buy it with my OWN MONEY. And also, PLEASE.. just because i ask for unwanted equipment that could aid me in my aquarium setup it doesnt mean i'll keep asking for stuff from others. I still want to have a sense of ownership over the tank. Live stock, live rocks, corals, and most other things i will get by myself with my OWN MONEY. And as for maintenance yeah of course it'll be expensive, for eg salt, electricity, food etc. I know all that. BUT I'm both financially and mentally prepared for that. Moreover maintenance is a gradual thing. Money can be saved up along the way. Not like equipment costs. Many things you have to get at the start whioh doesnt give you much time to save especially if i'm planning to start soon before the price of things start to rise further. So i hope rather than shoving hard facts down my throat, i think providing helpful information or the actual help itself like choose a display name, nanoreefer and some other people have done, will not only help encourage me to set up a realistic, maintainable and proper tank but also allow me to reap the fruits of my sowing. Anw last notes, i am not asking for free stuff or pressurizing or manipulating anyone to give me free items because i cant afford them. I am merely asking for unused items which could go a long way in helping someone like me since the items are no longer needed. NOTE THIS.

Hi Kenny thata true! Hmmm I'm still thinking about it! Dont want to run out of resources halfway too haha!

Hello! Yeah I think that's what I'll do! it's cheaper that way and more affordable! thx for advice! :B
