Like macroalgae they export nutrients at the water, but IME unless you have a lot of mangroves, they aren’t as efficient as other algaes and take a long time to grow. so i wouldn’t use it as the main filtration for a system Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

generally bubbletip anemones are the safest with most species. different clownfish species host different anemones though, so be sure to do your research before mixing 2 together. for e.g. haddoni carpet anemones have been known to eat common ocellaris clownfish because the 2 are not symbiotically compatible. best to check which are suitable for each other beforehand.

reducing the photoperiod or lighting intensity of your light fixture might help. also, having fish like tangs and rabbitfish might help reduce the issue, if your tank is big enough. clean up crew like hermits and turbo snails also make a difference. Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

generally tap water contains the most impurities, followed by distilled water and finally RODI, the latter being the most pure and having the least sedimentation. Tapwater tends to come with a variety of impurities like chlorine, chloramines, and small levels of nitrate and phosphate along with potentially harmful heavy metals. distilled water may filter out some of these but not necessarily all of them, which is why RODI is the most recommended for reef tanks.

Gobies and tangs. most fish leave clownfish alone too unless they’re predatory (e.g. groupers, eels, lionfish), but avoid putting different multiple clownfish together. A pair is the general consensus Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

not too sure but from what i read on other aquarium forums, there are different grades of glass used for aquariums(higher vs lower iron content). unless yours is crystal glass/some of the higher grade glass with a lower iron content, some of the more regular options have a tinge of green to them.

depends on your fish stocking. if you’re only keeping tropical species you don’t need a chiller. but having one definitely helps overall tank stability by regulating the temperature which means less stress on your fish. if you’re keeping coldwater species that require temperatures below 25 degrees then it’s a no-brainer; you definitely need a chiller. P.S. currently running a semi-outdoor fowlr 4x2.5x2.5ft tank with a sump without a chiller. lowest temp was in the 27deg C range, highest was in the 30deg C range. Usually hovers at an average of 29deg C. from what i know about the uv you’re referring to, the ones ‘exposed’ and placed in the sump don’t require a feed pump, but aren’t as efficient as the ones that do and you can’t exactly control the flowrate in the sump as easily as if it were a uv steriliser unit with flow from a separate pump going directly through an inlet and outlet which forces the water volume to pass through it rather than around it making it generally more effective at doing its job. hope this helps Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

personally i’d go for a 1/2 hp chiller. hailea hs-90 is a decent affordable option imo Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
