  1. Let's just fast forward to my current 322 supported by full zeovit system Tank 3ft by 2ft by 2ft 10mm front crystal glass with bottom skirting and top bracing. Light: illuminated proudly by 2x Hydra 52 Wavemaker: 2x mp40 Skimmer: deltec SC1455 Skimz zeovit reactor (hoping to change to kz automatic reactor) Ato: unknown China brand Doser: jebao DP4 (Mg,ca,kh) Return pump jebao dc12000 Chiller: hs66a Tank filled with air only lol Sump tank. Thin layer of sandbed added and Rockwork done and tank filled with tapwater to let it run for a a day before pouring about 1 bucket of h2o salt Water level too high for the skimmer so use egg crate to lift it higher DIY piping lol messy but Nmind changing return pump soon. Will redo all the piping and t-off Skimmer at work Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  7. Hi reefers, I'm Patricklhc don't mistaken with another reefer Patrick. 2 different person I keep encouraging reefers to participate in this contest till a reefer tempted me with "don't u want to win the contest and buy your KZ automatic reactor?" Haha thank you for inspiring me My old tank thread can be found here http://www.sgreefclub.com/forum/index.php?/topic/110888-The-start-of-the-no-end-route Cut the story short, my Reefing didn't stop after I decom. It was less than 2 months that I started a 211 tank and within a few months decided it's too shallow for my liking. So decided to go with a 322 tank. Here's a drawing of the new tank with the help of. Got to go now. Stay tune for more tank pics set up and equipment list Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Totally agree with Illumnae. Additionally my personal feel is that a mixing 2 salt brand together is a lot of hassle too with no added benefit. Personal experience is that salt brand B cheaper but have very solid printed specs as compared to brand A however, brand B parameters drops faster. I'm not sure if it's because the more brand A are so solid that my sps find them delicious and start having better appetite or simply because there wasn't enough buffer in it. So yes a good salt is very important. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Macrovan a name very familiar with a lot of reefers who has been around for sometimes..

  17. Haha that's a nice one for me to do some thinking. Whatever the case I will continue my method to see if it really works at the end of the day lol. However, understanding the nature of it and solve the root will be a more effective way and also to minimize recurrence. Thanks for sharing your views and knowledge Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. If this is so, dosing of bacterials in both zeovit/FM system wouldn't be necessary isn't it? Or user just have a find the magic number of bb and carbon dosing to individual tank environment ? So that the required bb stains remain sufficient(won't go into a mono culture state) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. I did a search online, however nothing much mention about po4. Nevertheless, I know reducing po4 helps. What I don't understand and wanted to ask is assuming cyano is not due to excessive bb died off, why is it that my method now works? Reduce bb dosing and increase carbon? Some online information says cyano uses carbon as their food sources as well Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Do u guys think good wood park is worth the money $35.80++ for their durian pastries and dessert buffet ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Yes yes some pics will be good lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. My understanding is the causes of cyano is due to excessive dead bacterial and this allow another stains of bacterial to flourish right ? In this case cyano bacterial. Personal view is because we are dosing more bacterial but not enough carbon to sustain them thus causing a imbalance. I'm also trying to adjust my bacterial and carbon dosing to get the magic dose amount Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. Hi guys, for the past 2 weeks I have been having cyano issue popping out here and there on my sandbed. Although mixture of cyanoClean, coralsnow and A balance helps, but it doesn't solve the root. Whenever I stop dosing them cyano appeared again. So I reduce my zeobak dosing from 3 times a week to 1 time half the dosage and increase Zeostart dosage by another 50%. Effect is not as instant as the combination of CC,CS and AB but cyano did show improvement, gradually it gets lessen and no new area spotted with new cyano patch on the sandbed. I will continue this method until cyano totally disappeared and resume back normal dosing of zeobak and Zeostart Hope this will help guys having trouble dealing with cyano outbreak Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
