  1. Haha... 5 buck filter is what filter? For me now 4 stages also cannot always get 0...
  2. Bro u also using DI filter only? Yap always use the clean container to test. I just puzzle why got nitrite...
  3. Yap, tap water. I'm using Salifert test kit. Or will it because sometime my TDS is not 0 that y causing this?
  4. I'm using a 4 stages DI filter to get my TDS 0 water and today I did a test and found nitrite content inside. Is this normal because I never use RO membrane? Any bros can advise how to remove nitrite without using RO membrane? My filter stages Stage 1 = 1ppm micro filter Stage 2 = CTO carbon block Stage 3 = DI resin Stage 4 = DI resin
  5. Nice job bro, this idea can be use in QT tank also...
  6. bro thx for the info but I'm asking about how to treat the white spot on the fish.
  7. Ytd brought this angel from LFS that time never saw this white spot but today morning suddenly alot. Any bro can advise what is this? Need to perform treatment?
  8. +1 Waiting for ur update
  9. Haha... Will seriously consider it for now, else the money wasted soon can buy chiller also. Got any cheap and small chiller to intro?
  10. The bio media is all new and cycled, went thought the ammonia and nitrite spike beginning due to over stock. Now only left phosphate which is high but is doing water changes every week to bring it down. After adding the air pump the PH is stable from morning to night. For salinity, I'm using timer plug to control the fan runtime so the evaporation is not that bad and water is top up constantly to maintain. Max swing is between 1.025 to 1.0255. Thinking about buying the chiller but is like over kill. I guess maybe I'm just suck at choosing the fishes, mostly all die within 1 or 2 days. Maybe I should go other LFS to try...
  11. My QT is bare bottom with submerge filter pump and air pump. Bio media i use seachem matrix, marine pure sphere and maxspect sphere. Also have a ammonia alert to monitor any spike. Below are my parameter all the while Temp = 28.7 to 29.5 PH = 8.3 to 8.4 Ammonia = 0 Nitrate = 0.1 to 0.5 Nitrate = Phosphate = 0.5 to 0.7 Salinity = 1.025 to 1.026 I guess for those more disease resistant type like gobies or small fish I will do what u said put in main Tank and observe. Only tang and angel will strictly do QT to eliminate ick. Even banggai so hardy also can die in my QT twice... [emoji31]
  12. Already doing it bro, on top of the submerge pump I added an air pump in the tank to ensure the PH and oxygen is constant. The only thing that bother me now is the temperature. I will increase more aeration and see hope it goes. Hopefully no more casualties. [emoji17]
  13. U also facing the temp issue? Now I'm thinking for those fish that is so called more disease resistant one should I just put in directly or not... haiz...
  14. Recently due to the crazy hot weather my QT temp is stuck at 29c despite using the fan non stop. I suspect due to the temp it already killed 10+ fishes. Now my QT is doing more harm then good to me. Now start to wonder should I still continue to do QT or just put in main tank. Guess the survival rate is higher. Any bro can advise...
  15. Yes, still around... close on Mon and Wed...
  16. Yap, planning to do it tonight. Hopefully can solve the issue. Thx for the help bro.
  17. Jia lat... this is at my sump, if off light my chaeto will die off liao... now already started to die off slowly... Should I just throw the whole chaeto away(Is dying anyway) and after this dino resolve then start again?
  18. May I know is this diatom, Dino or cyan? This grow in my sump after my chaeto start dying off... I already siphon out already but will it grow again? Any bro can advise?
  19. Really? This chaeto is taken from one of the bro here... so now I need to reduce the time? I on for 16 hrs a day now...
  20. Oh ok... u manage to see the poop? Is it white?
  21. Oh ok... then I guess should be due to the trace element... I'm using 24W PAR 38 red colour LED, flow is quite high... the grow rate is fine all along until today when I check... Will go buy this product and try, thx for the info bro...
