Nice collection of sps.

Nice fts.

Thanks for sharing, bro. Its not as difficult as what I initially thought. Thanks for the advise, bro. Will change to new hard tubing soon. My cr juz nice for my tank size of 50 gallons so maybe no need for 2nd chamber. Will monitor tank uptake closely. So far ca @ 410ppm and KH stablized @ 8dkh. Now wat to do with my kamoer 3 channels dosing pump, spare container with all the premix cacl2, nahco3 & mgcl2 liquid & powder?? Lol Quick update, New fish, carpenter flasher wrasse, Actually also got some other new fishes but they have disappeared or committed suicide, Blue stripe pipefish, haven't seen it in the last few days. Royal pencil wrasse, keep on jumping into my overflow box and hv to fish it out twice where the 2nd time it sustain some injuries and died the next day. Sad. Was a beautiful fish. Gold neon eviota goby which has nv appear again the moment I add into my DT. Maybe eaten by my melanurus wrasse. Purple bonsai frag from bro Evo, Pink Hyacinthus table, really pretty pink coloration, hope I can retain this color. That's all, folks. Have a great wkend.

Nice branching hammer.

Nice pics of ur livestocks. Keep the pics coming. Cheers!!

Brandonm, Thks for the reply. Wow, even H2O2 can't kill it. Nothing eats this stuff too. Guess hv to remove those rocks it growing on. It growing faster than I can pluck it out.

$4.20

Ya, I'm using test kit to test. No worries. Still on process of tuning. Thks for the advise, bro. It's up to individual's preference. Item #4-#7 is for supplying tank water usually from sump if u hv one to ur CR, usually installed externally outside sump, but there r in sump models if I'm not wrong. I'm only juz sharing my own equipment cost. There's a few ways to feed ur cr, most reefers uses a peristaltic pump such as TOM aqualifter while some tee off from their return pump to feed their cr. It's up to u, bro. Here's a link for better understanding. http://www.reefkeeping.com/issues/2002-05/sh/feature/

Ya, bro. I'm not using for the time being, budget constraint. I'm manually tuning my cr and running it 24hrs see how it goes first. I think its optional for ph monitor but gd to hv if u wanna control ph in cr via co2 dosing. Maybe something for the future.

Today managed to setup my cr with my friend helping me. Totally a noob in this. The cr I'm using is bubble magus, model is CR100WP. I'll break down the cost of my setup in case there's anyone interested in my setup. I'm using the most cheapest and reliable equipments I can find within my budget. Here's a pic of my setup, Things I need, 1) BM CR100WP from DE aquatics: $160 2) Ans CO2 alloy 2L cylinder from GreenEmerald Aquarium : $80 3) Ans dual gauge solenoid regulator from Fresh n Marine: $94.50 (I think price hv gone up after I bought it, lol) 4) 12/16mm hose 1metre from GreenEmerald Aquarium: $2.50 5) 9/12mm hose 1ft from AquaStar: $1 6) 12mm to 9mm reducer from AquaStar: $3 7) Tunze mini pump from Fresh n Marine: $20 8) Grotech mg pro cr media 1kg from Marinelife: $32 9) Rowalith W 6kg from Madpetz: $45 Total cost of new CR setup for me costs $438. But I think it will be cheap and less hassle in the long run. No more making dosing liquid for ca, kh & mg every mth. And also hopefully more stable parameters.

Those white spots u see in ur tank might not be 100% pests. Some could be copepods which are good food supply for ur fishes.

Keen to know too.

Nice galaxy monti.

Beautiful ice fire!!

Welcome to this addictive hobby, post pics of ur new setup soon.

Hi Marko, Welcome bk to this forum again. Hope u can visit singapore again. Wonderful tank u have!!

Use nylon type filter sock, will be easier to wash & maintain compared to polyester (felt) ones. I'm using nylon type 200micron, only need to wash once a wk.

Nice collection of sps & lps. See that u got a taste for Aussie stuff.

No worries, better to stock slowly. Easy on the pockets too.
