What type of angels you keep together in your tank?
sngolf replied to yeo99's topic in FOWLR (Fish-only with Live-rock)
Hi Angel Lover's, I have a 4 feet tank with: 1 Koran 1 SG Angel 1 Blue Ring 1 Regal 1 Blue Lip 1 King Soon to be included, one Blue Face and a Asfur. -
Bought one and tried to use it on the QT tank. Don't work, very leaky and difficult to adjust. Did not even bother to sell it, threw into dumpster after two weeks.

Bro, the market is at West Coast Park, http://directory.stclassifieds.sg/singapore-directory/ayer+rajah+market/company/businessweb/1992107830/ It's just beside the newly open NTUC. Call 97676950, Jeff. He may be out doing servicing, call before you go down. If it's indeed ich, chances of survival still high. Velvet and Brooknella is almost a sure killer. My Angel tank got wiped out in less than a week. -

I tried the blueish green liquid from Ayer Rajah Market, seem to help quite a bit. Black spot from inside of Blue Tang gone in a few days. Moreover it is Reef Safe. Go look for Jeff.at the Market. -
There's always a danger of introducing parasites into the DP when doing water change. I was wondering if the long exposed UV lamps for Pond use be any good. Tried using it in the DP for six hours and Chemo Therapied most of my fishes to death. Bleached white the live rocks that had nice purple algae growth on it.

I am using the L Aquapurie Denitrator. Got it from an old timer. Did not read instructions properly, overfed the tank. Tank crashed after a month, maybe due to immaturity of tank. Readjusted the flow rate and replaced 90% of the old biomedia. Recycled the tank for another month. Just added four fishes back in for two weeks now. Everything seems OK. Nitrate is less than 4ppm. Need to monitor for another couple of weeks to determine result.

Thank You Bros for feedback and advise. I will start with max of 70% and ramp it up slowly. See if the algae comes back. Will someone share his opinion: currently using 16K for Mixed Reef Tank and 10K on my Fowler with some softies, Should I swop them???

I was looking to restart a Tang family on my 4 footer, all reserved already, :( ....

I've got three Tiger Tails.

R420 16K has been on my first mixed Tank(3 X 1.5 X 2), got some fishes, LPS with SPS Frags, Algae and cyno bloomed when I used the presets. Been setting it down to no more than 80% for a week now. Algae and cyno clearing up, did a big time clean up. Some of the SPS Frag bleached out, while a few SPS with brown algae on tips. Also clearing up, been cleaning it with a soft tooth brush. I just got another Razor 420 10k for my 4 ft X 1.5 X 2. This is more of a FOWLER Tank with soft corals, trying to be careful not to have another Algae Bloom. Appreciate your advise on ideal settings for both Tanks.
-
Pardon my ignorance, so I should be setting the whites with no more than 70%? and stay in the red spectrum?
-
Any Bros out there can advise on Ideal Program Timing? I get Big Time Algae Bloom using the Preset Programs.

Bro, your Tank's awesome and inspiring! As for your skin allergy, may I suggest you try Lanolin oil from Australia. Those that are made from Lamb's oil. My wife and friends who suffer from years of Eczema did much better with Lanolin Oil or cream. If you can't find it in the pharmacy, PM me. I've got some bros in Australia coming back end of the month. Will get them to bring back more for me. God Speed..

Any fellow reefers using this Ozonizer? Please advise. Priced very reasonably without having to use with an external air pump.
-
Thanks Bro fir the info, looks like I'll have to stick the original canister configuration but lightened up on the substrates. Read somewhere those sub rates can be an excessive nitrate factory.
-
Slapper, thanks for advise. Was thinking of getting an Eheim canister go thru my spare chiller then pump it back to the fluvial chi. Instead of substrates, I was thinking of putting in bio pellets and let in work like a de-nitrator. You think it will work???
