Aiseh, why never offer me the other day.... btw, the zoas and Palys I got from you opening up nicely.... let me start..... 10 bucks!

Anyone knows if Coral Rx kills crabs and shimps? I dipped all my corals in CoralRx for a good 10 mins. None of the crabs die.... the nice commensal shrimps survive too. Had to hand check each and every coral and remove those pest hairy crabs!! Luckily, while I was feeding my corals with Oyster eggs, saw this little hairy crab standing proud at the tip of one of my corals...removed that coral, removed him, and to my surprised, found another....goodness!! checked through all of them again...hopefully I'm rid of this hairy crab!

It's dispar anthias Sorry....typo..... should be 26.4

Latest Tank Parameters Temp : 36.4 Salinity : 35.8ppm pH : 8.31 NO2 : 0 NO3 : 0 Mg : 1170 (on-going correction been made) Ca : 410 kH : 8.6 PO4 : 0.13 ( dropped from 0.26 8 days ago)

A few more random pics..

SPS virgin no more...... Finally, the first SPSes were added!!!

Did you read the readings off the syringe directly?? Well, that was where I made the mistake! We're not suppose to calculate the reagent used. Rather, we should withdraw 1 ml of reagent and the final reading of syringe plunger should be used to tabulate the results.

My bad guys.... my bad.... I read it wrongly. Instead of directly reading the readings off the syringe, I actually calculated the amount of reagent used and tabulated it with the chart! I didn't read it properly.....user problem..... that was what I was trying to figure out when my readings were not what my tank seems to be.... Sorry, my bad....... read wrongly.... The right KH would be 9.3 instead of 6...... Mg is at 1200, low, but at least not 300!!!! Thanks guys.... my bad!

Hi all, Did a test with Salifert test today.... it seems my Magnesium level is super low at 240ppm.... Don't understand how it went so low... Anyway, Calcium in return was ridiculously low at 60!! Don't know how it's possible, but all corals and fish are healthy and happy.... Now, the question is, what is the best method to boost Magnesium level? I used the reef calculator and for my 450G tank, it'll take like 26litres of Mg supplement... Just doesn't sound right, for the pocket... Any advice? alkalinity is also low at 6.0dKh . Was at 5dKh 2 days ago. Just started my calcium reactor (with Rowalith C+ and dolomite media) since the past 24hrs. Any advice? Thanks

Hi, How much for the Purple tang? how big is it? Regards

Hi Aldrick, Please reserve for me the purple tang! Thanks

Hi, What's best price for the sunset Millie, pink fusion, blue stardust and poker chip frags? Please pm me. Thanks!

Thanks for the offer...I'll hold you to your word .... I come down to Singapore every other week. Come down to KL and I'll bring you to places which stock up your belly Sorry, typo... Should be 1380 Yes, it's 1380.... N' thanks... Going to stock up real slow..

Some random shots of the Sump...

definitely....waiting for a fresh SPS shipment next week I'm looking forward week after week for new shipments..... love the surprises NO2 - undetectable NO3 - 0 Ca - 420 Mg- 380 PO4 - 0.18 (0.66 when started cycling - 0.33 2 weeks ago - 0.25 a week ago)..... algae seem to be retreating Still on the first 500ml of Rowaphos) Salinity - 34.5-35.5 Ph - 8.3 Temp - 35.5-36.6 Thanks.... Not really..... it'll never really be big enough..... now, wishing it was 2 feet longer and 1 feet wider...haha

Currently starting slow by filling up 1/5th of the LPS dominated section....

7 weeks of cycling and finally, stocking begins.....

Bro, keep the MH.... It's never an overkill!!

What's fun during the cycling period is to understand simple chemistry and play around with your test kits.... The more test you do, the more you will understand how the tank water chemistry changes with every change/addition you make to the tank. Patience is a virtue you need to have in this hobby. If that is the virtue you do not possess, your endurance in this field will be short lived

You really do not need to add anything at all...absolutely nothing.... The live rock you put in your tank has enough die off to stimulate propagation of beneficial bacteria. You really just need to sit on your hands.... Do absolutely nothing. Adding bacteria will help a little.... But don't expect a miracle... Still give it a good 5-6 weeks before you add LS. Even my tank, I do absolutely nothing for a good 8 weeks, absolutely nothing at all... You really need patience. Ignore the tank entirely. Stop buying supplements unnecessary.

Testing the lightings..... I must say, love the LED lights.... it dims progressively over the set duration! 2 out of 5 Orphek Atlantiks running at coral acclimatization mode at 60% intensity.
