  1. hi guys, can i just check with you guys will these wrasse, given the sharp shaped nature of their mouths try to steal food like market prawn when u feed your corals? i had such problems with my 6line and tangs and have since tried not to get fishes that snatch from my corals or else feeding my corals will be a headache
  2. go get salifert kh test kit as for mg...dun just blindly dose...u need to know how much is being depleted by yr tank...blind dosing only spells 1 thing...and i think u know wat it is where u stay? if u stay near me u can bring some water from yr tank let me test for u i haf the necessary salifert kits

  6. i suspect your KH is low...check that and boost it up if its insufficient low kh is the most common case of ph drop if you find that your kh is hard to maintain...then check your mg...that causes kh to drop if too low
  7. oh hey i heard that place is the ultimate dining with gf experience...mind sharing with us the expected budget for dining there?
  8. of course u can...but u must wait for the ones to grow cos its quite a small rock actually, but u and giantbicycle shall be first on my list if i frag ya?
  9. i believe its considered a 3/4" because the main bulk of the resistance is from teh 3/4"
  10. hi ian...you're exactly right on the part about outlet being above sump level...that's the reason why if you take a look at my photo above, u see that the beckett is elevated by an old phone book!
  11. oh..i see what you are asking...well...i haven't experienced any leak from that place even though i off it at least once a week so i guess its safe
  12. hi patrick123...good question. hm...i do not think that the gunk pipe is for preventing backflow during power failure... you see...for the design with the gunk pipe...when there is a power failure...true that the water doesn't flow back through the air intake...BUT it will flow back through your gate valve all the same infact, if the position of your beckett nozzle is in such a position that gravity can siphon water, there's no reason why the water from the beckett will not flow back into the sump through the nozzle since the nozzle is pretty much 2 way...so water will still flow either through the gunk pipe or the gate valve i hope this clears the air? feel free to ask more
  13. i suppose they are good! cos u can find them at fish farms selling at above 10 each!
  14. as i've promised, this is a very short review so this last pic just shows the bubble in the chamber. kudos to chipson for his bullet beckett invention! hopefully this review comes in handy to all. cherrie o!
  15. the beckett nozzle as shown below is housed in a small chamber...its VERY easy to remove...simply remove the thumb screws...and viola...the nozzle is out...its SO easy to maintain as compared to the previous model i was using. to add on, the new model has a silencer option which really does make a big difference to the noise level in the room
  16. hi guys just doing a very short review on the bullet beckett i recently acquired as a favour to a friend introduction: first thing that many will notice about the bullet beckett is that it has a large reaction box below and that it has no gunk pipe...the beckett is directly fitted onto the reaction box personally, i think that this design is good because the beckett looks neater, more packed and even when you wish to upgrade its height, you dun have to worry about the gunk pipe looking very unsightly. theory: water is forced through the beckett nozzle to the reaction chamber where the bubbles will interact with the water...it then rises up and collects in the collection cup. unlike the previous model that i used, this model doesn't require a 45degree exit pipe that makes the water swirl as it rises. i also find this an improvement as there's less to tweek while trying to fine tune it. so here's a photo of the 48" one that i acquired
  17. finger leather coral...been with me since the very beginning when i started in Jul04
