hmmm now i manage to control the air flow of my skimmer at least its not overflowing already and starting to skim at least got some teh-O now hahaha

yeah faster change and save your livestock

NSW stand for Natural Sea Water You can get it from iwarna or mostly where they sell fish and coral should have it I don know how they get so much sea water from also hahaha but don try to get water from the beach use ... its poison to yiur tank

Oh I see... now I understand... thanks bro for explaining hmmmm should get a bigger liao

maybe you can do a 20 to 30% water change weekly with NSW and see how its goes??

ho[pe your YT and PT can be good friend...

hmmm don understand... hahahah i use sa2011 becos the aunty in front of ah beng shop de say its enough already so i no need to change cos my flow for the sa2011 is 1360l/hour

now 3 ft i using a weipro sa 2011 skimmer on my 1 ft tank and now transfer to 3 ft tank

i adjust the water to the lowest which is half the height of the water body but still overflow =(

oh i have already tune it to the lowest i can go and the skimmer is working fine in my 1 ft nano but don know why it go crazy now

10 days can put in so many livestock??

thank alot bro, think i will go and buy the test kit and test later anyway sooner or later also need to buy de

the foam is watery type and is clear no black or green

hmmm it come out as a foam than into the cup it become water .. so i should say it is water . so my market prawn is still inside and covered with mold... so it should the one causing my skimmer to go crazy right?

hmmm how to test?

btw during cycling when using the skimmer is it normal for the skimmer to overflow?? cos when i on my skimmer it created so much bubble that the cup on top will be full and overflow in less than 10 min

hmmm i forget the brand of the salt already which i buy from the aunty in front of ah beng and i add salt to water btw my tank is already cycling and i didnt add anymore salt into it and funny thing is morning the water is cloudy by the time i reach home it is not cloudy and this morning is cloudy again

yesterday the water is already clear and this morning it become cloudy again anyone know what might be the cause??

will it help if you isolate your yellow tang first in your main tank and let your purple tang stable down and get use to it than you try to pair them together?

okie thanks alot bro

so for now i don run the skimmer first? after 1 or 2 week than run the skimmer?

thank you bro .. all the points noted.

yeah... my water is clear now no more cloudy.. so when can i take out the market prawn?? after cycling is done??

the salinity is 1.023 yup i cant say that the sand is very clean i rinse it until i see almost clear water... so its possible its the sand that cause it... and i mix the salt mix in my main tank about 3/4 full, putting a pump inside to help stir and dissolve the salt for 3 days so that the water will not overflow into my sump and mix the rest of the water in a few pails for 3 days which is to be added in after i placed my live rock and sand in..and i slowly scoop and pour the water in using a small pail into my main tank and let it overflow into my sump and on the return pump to let it have circulation. the water is still quite clear in the afternoon not so cloudy until i throw in a whole piece of market prawn into the tank on sunday night and monday morning the water is already very cloudy .. and there is abit of weird smell as well ...

coming to the end of cycling?? so fast? my tank only cycle including today 3 days... don dare to put anything in first... think i wait for another 2 to 3 week and see whether my water will be clear and not cloudy than i test the water .. don wan to risk any livestock... even a tubeworm die i will feel heart pain..
