  1. SO basically, i need a whole tankful of sponge encrusted rocks and a thriving poplulation of 'lower' organisiums... But that will take months or even years to set up!
  2. Hey Guys! Thanks alot! But where do all the NO3 goes to? Since there is no plants to utilized it? Been thru some of the sites lightning gave, but they didnt really explain leh... Been trying the extreme to cut my NO3 down to 0... haha. Regretted the canister man... Zeovit? haha sounds cool... Whats that?
  3. The hermit/crab in yur tank must have developed a rather exquisite taste... I Read that the mushy family are naturally distasteful to predators... They have a type of toxin in their tissue, which they release when they are damaged. This can be seen as slime when u do fragging of the mushies or yumas. Then again... i might be wrong. My 1/2cent worth.
  4. Hey Bros and Sis, Came across this type of sump sysytem a couple of times, But only seen it in detail at iwarna. The sump is made up of nothing more then protein skimmer and lots of living rocks. The water quality in their display tank looks superb!!! Thinkin of setting one up as dont think my mom would like me to hav an extra hood of lights for my refugium.... But.... Have a couple of questions: - How does it work? Algae... i can understand, but LR with no lighting?? - How effective is it? - Do i need to do the same cycling with it?
  5. GREAT INSIGHT!!! Haha can go show off to my friends liao! Hmmm imagine if it applies to humans.... Eggs all around... like the alien movies, ready to spring into life.... Babies crawling about everywhere... on road, on pavement, in the longkang... in the trees... Hunting for their own food... Kinda freaky HOR!!!! I think i like them better helpless and in the cradle. Hmm females bigger then males.... now thats a freaky thought.
  6. Hey guys, i understand some of u have a DIY overflow box. WOuld be great if u all can teach me how to make one. A picture and explaination is good, but an offer would be great!! HAHA! Gonna change to a sump, so will need an overflow box for my current tank. Gonna DIY a sump too, with an old 2feet and some glass.
  7. Chim man.... DUnno how u all can come up with this.... YOU HAVE MY RESPECT!!!
  8. For me i juz buy two small ones about 1" in length, Then after some time one will grow larger then the other. The larger one is usually the female lah... (wonder why.... mother nature HAS a twisted sense of humor) And its a good idea to hav only one anemone in yur tank to increase the chance of successful pairing and possible breeding. Anyway, thats my experience. Now my pair is defending the anemone as its territory, chasing away any fish that comes close and inpecting anything that is placed too close, that includes new corals, small rocks and even tried to bit my hand when i hand feed my anemone!!!
  9. Yeah... they are pretty hardy. My tank only has a fan, 3T5s and one blue tube and almost a whole tank full of mushies. Surviving well... I even bought one thats badly injured (Cheap mah... 2Bucks but really big abt 4" and bright green ) After about 1 week had recovered and now opening very well. Maybe u 'sway got those thats infected...
  10. Haiz... But anyway, in the future if i have a 6ft tank (Which i hope is acouple of years time...) I'm gonna try my luck. Who knows!
  11. Great!!!! Where to collect? Me stays in the east.
  12. My "grapes" juz turn spikey, Then one morning mins after i turn on the lights, release this huge greenish smoke screen into the water. (WHich i believe is spores... , i Think...) Clouded my water for a few hours then cleared off by the skimmer, water parameters remains the same.... but the aglae juz turn into mush after 2 days... and now the rocks.. botak liao..
  13. woah.. nobody wants ah... nver maind.. wait till i hav some more things i dont wantthen repost again.
  14. Hey guys/gals, I'm looking for a 2ft X 1ft X1ft (or smaller) tank to convert into a sump for my 2 feet display tank. And i need some advice for the return pump and over flow box too... (Impossible now to get my presenttank drilled... and Ibox too expensive.) Thanks in advance!
  15. MAN!!!!! Gotta go see b4 it gets sold... or died... hee Geez... wished i had a bigger tank....
  16. MAn ... geez Thats kinda sad yeah? Some of teh bigger agels i've only saw once. An adult Queen when i was 14. MAN!!!!! cant get it outta my head till now!!!
