  1. I don't have a PO4 test kit. I don't know if the live rocks were cured or not at the LFS, but they're covered with coraline algae when I bought them. They're still as purple now as they were at more than 3 months ago. Has had 3 deaths, but the first few fishes I introduced are still alive and kicking. The reason why I removed the skimmer is due to the micro bubbles it produced after I changed to a higher-rated return pump for the oversized chiller. I'm shopping for a skimmer though. An in-sump model that can fit a max foot print of 14cm x 18cm. Any suggestions?
  2. Perfect for priming of canister filters after the weekly wash. Eliminates the bubbling every time you hook back the canister filters. National day sale. Price reduced to $35 for the 2 double taps.
  3. Oh man... Was I too late? Should've checked the forum earlier.. Keep me in mind if buyer backs out ya..
  4. Sorry I'm no expert, but I thought it looks abit like the marble goby aka soon hock we eat in the restaurant. LOL..
  5. Is Hankook also from Korea? For the same range, kumho is about 5-10% cheaper. But you can consider getting membership from Hankook (dunno if they are still pushing it or not though). This will make the tyres and their maintenance (rotation, alignment, balancing) cheaper.
  6. I'm also using Hankook. Damn lasting. I've run 80k km on them already. Due to change soon too. Will be sticking to this. They have a branch in Toh Guan.
  7. Thanks Kent. I'll try keeping this beautiful coral again when I'm more prepared for it. Anyway coral has been collected. Thanks for all the response. Thread closed.
  8. Haha just joking lah. There's no way I can / will impose this system. I know I don't have the time to target feed them regularly to keep them healthy. So I'll have to pass this task to a more capable reefer. Anyway it's due for collection tonight or latest tmr. Cheers.
  9. Fully agreed. That's why I mentioned that it is going to a reefer who can take better care of it than me. On a hind note, I wonder if I can demand visual update of the sun coral in this thread once a month / week to ensure that the reefer is conscious of this demanding task ahead before he commits? Lol..
  10. Tank update 06.08.12. Tested the water parameters today and these is what I've got. pH 8.1 dkH 7.3 Mg 1400 Ca 450 NO3 50 Maybe I'm colour blind, but it's really hard to tell water colour compared to solid printed colours on the chart. Maybe it's time to change out o this API NO3 test kit. The rest were tested using D-D kits. pH monitored inline. Looks like time to build a bigger or more efficient ATS to export the high level of nutrients. Maybe a 3-D screen. NO3 has been this high even before I decomm the skimmer. So the decision to remove the skimmer may not be a total mistake.
  11. Used for a week on my 1250 to chiller and back. I changed to a bigger pump after a week, so this is redundant. Bought at $24 each. Selling at $40 for both. I can deliver to anywhere in Singapore on weekdays daytime. SMS me 945525zero9. K.K.
  12. Thanks bro. I learn this good trait from you lol. Anyway, the queue is 3 deep now. Pls refrain from messaging me now. If all of these 3 backs out, I'll post here again the availability. Thanks.
  13. Hi, I have come to realize that it is beyond my capabilities to keep this beautiful NPS coral healthy and happy. I've been target feeding them twice a week. And these are the only times they stretch their tentacles. Due to my decommissioning of my skimmer, i have to reduce my tank's bio load. Last 2 weeks I only fed them once a week. So I'm looking for someone who can take better care of them than me to pass this colony to. 3" x 1.5". There are at least 30 mouths on this colony. Collection at Bedok reservoir on weeknights. SMS me to arrange. 94552509. K.K. Some cans of coke in exchange would be cool.
  14. Hi guys. Some background info first. 1. Hailea 66a chiller (1/4 hp) 2. Newjet 1700L/h pump from last compartment of ios to chiller (2ft lower) and back to display tank. 3. Tank volume 90L. 4. I bought 12/16 Eheim double taps, as I initially wanted to use my Eheim 1250 return pump (12/16 fittings) for this purpose, but this pump I found underpowered for this chiller. The new pump uses 16/22 fittings, so do the chiller, so I used step up/down connectors. On the first day of this setup, The chiller is kicking in after 40 mins, for 7 mins each time. Now the chiller is kicking in after 23 mins, for 4 mins each time. Question. 1. Is it bad for the chiller to kick in so frequently, but for a shorter working time? 2. The energy consumption is roughly the same for either way. But does it use more power at the kicking-in moment? 3. Shall I leave it as it is, or try to get back the original timing on the first day? I think by changing the hoses and fittings to 16/22, I will be able to get a better flow, and thus longer time to cool the reservoir and thus, longer kicking in period and vice versa. Thanks.
  15. Fish is collected by a nice bro. Thread closed. Thanks.
  16. Price reduced to $65. I'm available at home today.
  17. Condition 8.5. A bit of brown stains that could not be scrubbed off at the inside of the cover of the collection cup. I can deliver to anywhere you are during weekdays daytime.
  18. Reef safe. Docile. Does not chase even timid fish like the fire goby. 2 weeks in my tank. Around 2.5" - 3". Eats pellets. $40. Needs a day or 2 to catch upon confirmation. SMS me. 945525zero9 K.K.
  19. Used for 8 months in total. $75. Pls SMS for fast deal. 945525zero9 Tks. K.K.
