One channel for dawn and dusk?

24/10/14 - Super Sun and RO/DI FTS @ 24/10/14 a relatively quiet week (by my standard) for me... I guess the news that I will be traveling again for two weeks in Nov has really tempered my mood a fair bit. Will be another two long weeks away and hopefully this time round I wont return to that many LS casualties... On the bright side, I will be at Guangzhou and hey, it is taobao time, to replenish my first bite reef pellets and LPS pellets (and maybe get myself a few more goodies). The LPS pellets work really well for me, because unlike those fine powder feed, pellets wont foul the water that much and I can actually see my LPS are eating them. So here is what has happened during this week: Super Sun After several weeks of placing the super sun in the shade and slowly inducing it to open in open water and blight light and blar blar blar. The super sun (finally) is willing to open under white light. Super sun 1: Finished goods - no longer scare of bright light Super sun 2: WIP - slowly moving it into un-shaded area Also, I am thinking of actually buying more zoas/ sun/ ricordea/ etc and breaking them apart and gluing the small colony to fill in the spaces between the LR. Let's hope that I can get a few right size one before my trip. RO/DI Bought the first ever DI unit (Crystal Plus one stage) and was having fun solving all the connection thingy. Brought it brand new at $72 (free with one TDS tester). No complaint on the price. As for the effect, TDS measured on water straight out of my tap is around 75-80, after running the DI (at half the recommended flow rate), the TDS reading of the processed water is about 35-40 (nitrate about 2ppm). Can live with the reading for now, but most likely will buy this DI supplement to further bring down the TDS. Hey, at less than $20 per tube, I reckon it is very much cheaper in the long run than replacing the >$60 usual RO/ DI resin.

Seaview not bad. Price is good but mostly FW stuff.

Sea squirt?

http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=597+600+2980&pcatid=2980 Bro, does it looks like the pict?

Looks like chili coral to me. Does it expand at night with white PE?

[emoji79] would it be the glass too slippery...

Yo bro. From what i read on the net, most of the hairy crabs are bad. So botak crab is most likely good guy. Next is blue eyes (tip), if i remember correctly, most blue eyes crabs are good guy too.

1) fish dont read book (answer to questions like why the book says tang is reef safe but my tang nip my coral ah?) 2) all corals are $2 each and fish $1 once i bought them home. At least that is the price i told my CFO... 3) coral always look more beautiful in LFS tank before you pay for them

No hair. Looks like good guy to me.

Bro roughlt how many litres can one stored?

Yup. It is the lonely uncle shop.

Oki. Understood. Thanks a lot for the help bro.[emoji3]

Help help bros out there. I just purchased a Crystal Plus - 1 Stage Deionization Filter Systems, but to my big surprise, the facet/ tap adapter is too big to connect to any of my existing taps at home. So may I know how do bro here who is using the Crystal Pro/ Plus connect their tap/ water to the inlet (the small yellow tube) of the DI system? Do I need to go hardware shop to get any adapter or sort? Thanks a lot for the help in advance ah.

As long as it is meaty LPS better dont keep with angel. My lemonpeel nip/ bite ACAN plate blasto etc. But leave my sun ricordea hammer torch alone... for now..

Urgh... i did not find my budget hailea 28a any noiser than a standalone fan at 3 power

I believe time contraints, endless $ and the heartbreake of LS dying are three main factors. If three strikes together then it will be tough...

Bro may i know collect at where?

Super bro. Big head.

As of niw, pinacle has a few super sun. Multi heads $40, single head $10. Two of the multi heads seems closed but healthy.

I dont know. Will let you know if i come acroas any supersun.

Bro, 15 times and above would be a starting point for LPS. Monitor how your coral react and adjust accordingly.

Depends on what you intend to keep. Would suggest you to buy an adjustable rate wavemaker. Rw series is relatively cheap and works well for me ah.

Bro bro dont forget garlic and some (whatever) supplment.

No. Require regular feeding and good flow.
