  1. Recently added a threadfin butterfly fish to my FOWLR tank. It seems to keep scratching against the rocks... is this normal? Or starting signs of ich. (Video attached below) So far no signs of ich or any white spots. (See pictures below) Water parameters: Ammonia <0.2ppm Nitrite <0.1ppm IMG_6706.MOV
  2. Hi, I just bought a Jebao SLW 20 sine wavemaker and was wondering what type of flow would best suit a FOWLR tank. Types of flow include... 1. Laminar/ constant flow 2. Gyre flow 3. Random/ turbulent flow I was thinking that gyre flow would be useful for picking up detritus off the sand and using a laminar flow at night so that the fish can find dead spots to rest. Anyone got any opinions?
  3. Okay! Thanks for the advice Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
  4. Hi, I'm new to the hobby and intend to keep a 3ft FOWLR tank. I've recently installed a chiller and was wondering if it would make sense to turn it off during the night to increase the lifespan of the chiller by giving it more "downtime" since it's not as hot. I've read from the forum that fish in the wild are able to adapt to 5 degree temperature changes as long as it is gradual and the temperature follows a schedule/ is consistent. The temperature of my tank during the day is chilled to 27 degrees. I've set a timer for my chiller to turn off at 9pm and turn on at 9am everyday. Since it's not as hot at night, the temperature of my tank will maintain at around 29-30 degrees max. If anyone can educate me or provide some input that would be great! Much appreciated.
