sometimes fish will flash due to gill flukes, ich, even velvet but show no visible signs of said parasites. best to monitor and continue feeding well in the meantime. Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

For smaller tanks, dosing polyplab medic(hydrogen peroxide) according to the instructions will help with managing ich. it won’t eradicate the parasite or ‘cure’ your fish but it’ll keep the parasite population down. Feeding your fish well, keeping their stress down(by not introducing too many at once, or too many fish for tank size for e.g) and boosting their immune system with the right foods will also help them fight parasites and diseases better.

Personal opinion: Best to leave the temperature constant so I would leave the chiller active throughout. There was once I set the chiller temperature at 26 degrees without realising the thermostat was malfunctioning and for a couple of weeks the temperature was swinging between 25 and 29 degrees and I wasn’t fully aware what was going on. Next thing I knew my fish were stressed out enough to have their immune systems compromised and succumbed to ich. stressors like temperature drop and rise can greatly increase the chances of your fish falling ill to parasites and other diseases imo. if i were you if i absolutely had to turn the chiller off completely at night then i’d set the temperature during the day to something closer to what you mentioned your average temp without a chiller was- like 28 degrees. less of a swing cause of the smaller gap in temperature difference.

Welcome back to saltwater! Main issues with a fowlr(especially if you plan to have many fish) is parasite/disease management. Quarantine is great if you can afford space for another setup as your QT. Then again, even if you quarantine all your fish, there might still be a chance parasites get into your main system. Personally, I’d absolutely recommend getting a UV sterilizer suitable for the volume of your main system, and run a flowrate low enough to make enough contact time with the water running through it to zap free-floating protozoan parasites like those of ich and velvet. Installing a UV sterilizer has saved my tank from a marine velvet outbreak before and I haven’t looked back since. It may not eradicate the parasite from your tank completely, nor will it instantaneously ‘cure’ fish afflicted by parasites like ich and velvet, but it certainly helps to control the population of many parasites in your system. Check out parasite eradication vs management on youtube. There are a few helpful videos to get you started, especially ones by BRSTV. Hope this helps! Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

if you’re using other maxspect products it’s also a good tool to have. i have my icv6 control 2 gyre pumps and 2 rsx lights. 1 unit can host 2 maxspect pumps Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

been using a couple of maxspect gyre xf-330s in my 6x3x2.5ft display and at 80-100% their flow is great enough for my softie tank. they also come with flow guards that prevent anemones from getting sucked into the impellers. the icv6(if you happen to get one) also makes customizing flow patterns very easy and you can play around with how long you want for e.g. gradual pulsing followed by alternating flow and random flow, etc. pretty good deal if you ask me. cleaning the unit is also alright and much easier than their previous models from what I hear. Not gonna be as seamless to clean or neat as say, ecotech’s mp10s and 40s but if you want a decent pair of wavemakers that cover flow throughout your tank if you get 2 and with mostly open rockwork. imo, great to have 2 on each side for longer tanks. hope this helps!

Looking for a Diodon holocanthus(Longspine/Freckled Porcupine puffer) specimen, ideally 4 inches or smaller. Please pm/whatsapp nine6three60seven4zero with pics/video if you have one to let go. cheers Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

From what I know it can be pretty hard to find larger pieces these days, many LFS i’ve observed tend to sell pieces up to 5inches or frags only. You can try asking around here if fellow reefers have larger colonies to let go. From my experience most pomacanthus, holacanthus and diacanthus angels will only take a curious nip at certain softies, but really go after and eat other types. I used to have a Regal angel that would eat my zoanthids and star polyps but leave large leathers like toadstools, Kenya trees and finger leathers alone. Right now I house an 8inch Blue-Ring angel that’s been with me for 3 years that will eat zoas and cloves but leaves star polyps, leathers, xenia and kenya trees alone. I used to try out cheap zoa frags, leathers, xenia and star polyps with some angels and all in all I must say whether or not they will eat your coral is really up to the individual specimen. That said I have had the least luck with keeping them with zoanthids, and the most luck with big leathers. For anemones, I have yet to have an angelfish that has eaten any, though I do notice they will curiously inspect anything that looks edible, especially things that resemble fleshy lps corals. This is anecdotal as a large variety of angelfish will have a tendency nip corals, even dwarf varieties like flame angels. Best not to keep them with more expensive coral pieces unless you fancy potentially giving them a very expensive meal experience hahaha. Also, if you’re looking to keep lps corals in the future, most of them will certainly be at risk with large angels. If you’re looking for absolutely reef-safe angelfish types, go for genicanthus species. These feed on planktonic matter in the water column and don’t have a habit of nipping at corals.

as long as the product is used carefully(i.e dissolved in tankwater before pouring into ideally the sump of the tank to be safe), it is pretty reef-safe. it’s essentially balls of hydrogen peroxide. that said i wouldn’t dump it in the dt when undissolved as the balls have caused bleaching in my anemone and killed one of my mushrooms when some landed on them. so i would say it’s yet another “reef safe with caution” thingamabob in this hobby hahahaha. it does help with managing ich though, at least from my experience. Velvet? another animal altogether. Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

Doing a 30-70% water change should get that nitrate down. Just make sure the paramaters match. As for livestock, a pair of clownfish of your liking would be perfect as the starter fish imo. adding more peaceful fish first is always a good choice too all the best with your new tank!
