  1. Recently, my layer of wool (mechanical filtration) in my sump setup got stuck with debris and caused water from my outflow pipe to overflow into my living room. Some people told me I should not use wool filter as it is not necessary. What are your thoughts? Is this required or do I just allow the water to flow directly through bio balls and just let the skimmer do the work?
  2. Anyone knows if mad petz is opened today? I went yesterday during his opening hours but was closed.
  3. Thanks Copepod. I'd placed a plating monti near the flow and it isn't doing well. Maybe I need to shift it to a lower flow area.
  4. The mystery wrasse I've seen here are usually very small. Anyone knows their max size?
  5. What abt eheim pumps? Anyone has experience?
  6. Any idea which lfs sells this? Thanks
  7. I'm currently using an Eden return pump and find that it gets quite noisy at full strength. Pump under 3 months old. Which is the quietest brand out there, not compromising on power/rate? Your help is much appreciated
  8. Thanks solasido for the suggestion. GSP apparently works as well. Any others? Sps type?
  9. Dear reefers, I just installed a tunze wave box in my 4 ft tank. There happens to be some space just in front of the box. Can I ask which type of coral can take direct water flow? I had to move my gonios which occupied that space previously. I'm open to sps, Lps or softies. Tks!
  10. I'd recommend west coast aquarium for set up and maintenance. Look for Jeffrey low
  11. Heard AM had Bali shipment last night, corals too. Can anyone confirm or post stock list?
  12. Hi Orsony, has the flameback angel reached the shop or must we wait for Sat 3pm?
  13. anyone knows where to find healthy, mysis/pellet eating male Squareback anthias?
  14. I agree. Water parameters still not stable. Doing well with PO4 but trying to stablise NO3 to the 5-10 range at least. Occasional ich and fish dying. (also due to the aggressive purple tang which I probably have to remove sooner).
  15. Thanks Kakani. I started with a sulphur denit. but it didn't manage very well. I'm now soley using Red Sea's NO3P04 and nearly all the algae gone.
  16. First forray into reef tanks. Just added some SPS a week ago. Comments and tips welcomed!
  17. Just went to jireh. Nice New shipments. Beautiful gray poma angels, big orange shoulder tang, unicorn tang, giant emperors, copperbands, blue chromis, flame angels etc. sea fans, brains, hammers, bubbles and lots of Lps and soft
  18. Hi fellow reefers, what would you do if you suspect you have dead fish in your reef setup? Sometimes, fish die in hard to reach places, in between rockwork or are just not visible. I guess it would be ideal to remove dead fish as they would contribute greatly to NO3. But then again, is it worth foraging the tank, knocking over corals, stressing other fishes etc just to get the dead fish out?
  19. Just to clarify with the senior reefers out there, are there actually real shipments from Australia? Understand that Great Barrier Reef is off-limits.
