  1. Noted. Will work on the water changes and manual removing of algae. Thanks for you help bros!
  2. To be honest partially understand only. Haha. As i still not very sure about whats the cost of lossage of colours.
  3. @marcovann, got it bro. I will use the time to try to troubleshoot the problem. I guess what i vould do now is to only change water frequently. To see if it helps.
  4. Kakani bro, i will read up more and make a decision. Im worried i boost the algae growth like jxlex bro said. Haha. Care to share what you use to intensify your sps colours?
  5. Bro your collection is way more then mine. Ypu have many much more rarer sps. Which is fully coloured up! As compared to mine.
  6. @ bro marcovann, yes i totally agree with some sps paling off while most of my sps colouring up and colour getting more and more intense . However, the only sps that are paling of are 2 pocci's. But from what i read if its due to high nutrient levels, shouldnt my pocci turn brown liao? Can you pls advise me on this paling matter? Thanks bro.
  7. As requested, my skimmate.
  8. Marco bro, N & P are at 0. Probably because the algae are consuming them.. As for skimmate pic, i will post it tonight. Thks bro. Regarding the pale sps, yes i totally agree, i cant even identify the problem. As for bleaching, i doubt so bah? As t5's doesnt really bleach sps from what i research. Usually only LED does it. Regarding the colour elements, i really wanna try it out, but as what you and jxlex bro said, i might only boost algae growth. So i really appreciate some help on creating intense colours on my SPS.
  9. Thanks bro for your kind words. Im currently dosing Ca, Mg and kH. Im planning to start dosing fauna marine colour elements soon. Together with some trace elements by fauna marine.
  10. Thanks bro!! I still think your tank is way nicer then mine! Im still trying hard and learning to enhance the colour in my sps.
  11. Bro, im currently only using biopellets.
  12. Jxlec bro, not only is there good PE. i observed good growth in most of my SPS. Had some sps previously bought from a bro which most of them are browned... There is a lokani(i think) From brown until now become purplish blue tip with green Polyps.. Even some SPS had already encrusted. For example , the lokani..
  13. Thanks bro. You played a big role in my todays tank. You explained every single thing you knew to me step by step. Me myself learned alot for you... Cheers.
  14. Thanks bro for your nice words! Jxlex bro, thks .. Btw just being humble... All the while my colonies has been having real good PE. No luck involved. Just like all of you bro's taught me. Patience is the key. About the algae it is way much better liao. my whole used to be flooded with it. Now left some portions only.
  15. Ooops, forgotten to rotate the pictures..
  16. Some random Shots taken of some of my SPS . Using lousy camera phone. Please excuse the ugly pictures. Pink Birdnest from uncle mike last month. Lots of new growth... Fibre Optic Pocci from SlimyMadness bro. Radioactive Green Stylophora. FTS as of 09June2013 Slanted View. RadioActive Birdnest.

  20. Ohh yeah, forgot to add , the ich cycle can be completed between 7days - 72days. So use my above method that i taught you to be on the safe side:) Cheers.
  21. To be honest, there ain't any cure for ich that can make sure ur system is ich free. Unless u can dose copper , provided you dont have any copper. Otherwise, if its possible, catch every SINGLE fish out and leave your tank empty for at least 30days. For best results , leave tank empty for 8weeks. By leaving the tank empty, it kills the itch completely because by doing so it starves the ich. As every newborn ich will have to find a host to host on within 24hours. Otherwise the newborn's will eventually die off. After letting your tank cycle for 8weeks, you can safely add fishes from reliable LFS that supplies ich free fishes. Otherwise you will have to go through the 8 weeks cycle all over again. Best is to quarrantine the fishes for at least 1 month and make sure they are feeding before adding it into your DT. *ANOTHER SIDE NOTE* : By raising your temperatures to levels at approx between 29ºc-31ºc helps to speed up the cycle of the ich reproductivity. This means that you are good to go at around the 6th -7th week. (BASE ON MY EXPERIENCE) Hope that helps .. Cheers..
  22. 1500 is okay. I used to keep it at 1500 also. If youre worried, and youre using a dosing pump, reduce about 10% every 2 days and montitor whether if it reaches your expected mg levels. Cheers.
