how to maintain your tank while on holiday?
solasido replied to ml708's topic in General Reefkeeping_
Also need to prepare for contingency e.g. what to do when chiller fail, return pump fail, wave maker fail. as for feeding, few days no feeding should be okay. Otherwise use auto feeder but limit the amount to keep nutrient low. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk -

on top of IP camera, install controller like Apex or ReefAngel Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk -
Wow nice. By right, live rock cannot be brought out without permit. But sometimes they close eye if size is small and especially if you placed in your baggage luggage (not into flight cabin). Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

I think you need to order from Ecotech USA. 2-3 months ago I was looking for MP60 wet side but both Madpetz and Iwarna didn't carry. Iwarna told me that they didn't carry spare parts anymore. I emailed and tried calling Ecotech Asia but no body answer or reply. In the end I ordered directly from Ecotech USA and shipped via Vpost. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

May be he bought it from LFS which sells with highly inflated price. The one at Plaza SG for example. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

i think if they are totally bleached without any remaining, seems not possible to recover. The polyp may not survive long enough before the zooxantellae come back and provide them the nutrient they need. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

I used Aquaclear 110 as a "mini" sump before for 1.5 ft cube nano. It works quite well. I put filter sock in the in let as mechanical filter a 15x9x12cm mini deep sand bed coral chips compartment carbon bags chaeto compartment Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

Hyper salinity is to bring pest out or make salted fish Hypo salinity is for parasite treatment Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

serious problem! fish keep dying!
solasido replied to evomclaren's topic in New to the Marine Aquaria Hobby
From what I observe ; Due to the life cycle of marine ich; all LFS display tank must have ich already. When shipment come; depending on the state of the ich cycle the live stock will get infected sooner or later. So the chance is quite high I would say that all fish from LFS display tank would have been infected with ich. Unless the LFS really isolate the display tank well and monitor sick fishes and clean tank with parasites. It is up to the fish immune system to fight. Weaker fish will succumb to it and die. The ways to get the tank ich free is to go fishless (any kind of fish) for 2 months. Or do not add any livestock and corals for 11 months consecutively. The ich will die itself. During this time, keep the fish stress free and fed well. When we see the white spots do not appear, it is because the fish is strong and the diseases do not have chance to manifest. But they are still there trying to live and multiply. As for treatment, really only cooper and hypo salinity are proven way. Actually, here it is apparent that marine ich in its evolution process is still imperfect and it has not reached the ideal stage yet. The goal of a living being is to live as long as possible and to ensure continuity of the species through off-springs. If now marine ich infected fish and causes the fish to die, this defeat the goal to live as long as possible because when the fish dies, the ich also dies. It is the same as suicide. It should have infected fish without causing fatality to it and that allows it to multiply. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD -

This is an example of fish gone bad. My yellow tang suddenly develop taste for zoas. Last year, I had a clown fish which out of nowhere suddenly fond of nipping pratas' tentacles. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

bro probably try dosing bacteria as well? because they are the one who will do the work. bacteria needs media to live, therefore in the sump got to make sure there is enough media e.g. coral chips (the more porous the better). Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

Some live stock can be successfully bred in captivity, some cannot (at least not yet) due to the difficulty in simulating the complex environment and then the larvae rearing. Another thing is about the cost and effort to rear the larvae. If it does not make economic sense then people will just simply catch from the wild. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
