Hi Bro Lzy77, i have 2 leopard wrasses in my tank right now and both of them are feeding readily on frozen BS. When i first got them back, they were super timid and appear only for a couple of hours(2 to 3 hrs) a day. What i normally do when i have new fishes is buy some LBS to try get them to feed. Most fishes seem more readily to accept live food when they are new. It worked for both of my wrasses too. Weaning them onto frozen food wasn't too difficult as i've expected too. I soak my frozen brine shrimps with garlic and vitachem, for the 1st couple of feeds..they took small bites and spat the shrimps out. They'll get used to your tank and the food after mabe a week, at least mine did. Now they are fighting for food with tangs double their size! Oh, as bro arcanehacker mentioned, if yours is really stubborn, try Henry's food. Mine loves it! Good luck!

UV is not an essential piece of equipment in my personnal opinion. Nice to have though. Im sure you know the benefits already and well, i do not really see any disadvantage of having it. If you are careful enough, its not gonna be dangerous at all. Oh, the only disadvantage i forsee is that it might warm/heat up your water a little as the water passes though your UV lamp which in any case of any temperature rise proberbly wouldn't even be noticeable.

Yes...lots of stuff to prepare for the big day....going LFs anytime soon?

LoL...especially one certain member of the forum here. He seems very pleased~

Haha, so fast planning already. Best of luck for your papers and happy shopping come Thursday!

What? My wedding pics? LoL...you have to be kiddingz....

Hrmz, their selection like not very big also lehz....haha. Maybe i'll order from Amazon, have to check out the price difference 1st. Anyway, thanks for the help!

Hrmz, gowns? What kind of design and style are you looking at? There are some places that make to measure gowns to your sepcifications. Any budget?

Maybe you can get Henry(ML) to order 1 for you? Give him a call to check it out!

Hrmz, im not really sure about white coloured corals too. CAn anyone clarify? I have avoided white corals so far, read somewhere that they are proberbly bleached. As for the gonios, i really have no idea whether they are dyed. A shop told me before there are true yellow ones, but dunno the price though. Anyway, its just a guess. I got my red one at around $60, blue ones if im not wrong costs around the region of $150.

Hi fellow reefers, May i know if theres any location i can find a good selection of books on marine stuff? Been to Borders and Kino but their collection isn't that big. Many thanks in advance. Anyone ordered from Amazon before?

Try g.ocot...they had a great looking bi-colour and 2 red ones on friday. They should still be there....price-wise might be abit on the high side though.

Erm, i presume you are using a thermometer to measure your temperature. Do you have a chiller? For FOWLR setups...30 degrees isn't going to pose any problems. Corals and inverts might though. Any plans to keep any corals?

Hrmz, abit out of topic, but any good brands of kh tester to recommand? Im having a hard time with the salifert ones... Thanks~

Haha, i tried one that sized before, died the next day in my QT. Sianz, otherwise i would have 2 boxfishes and 2 cowfishes swimming in my tank now. Wedding pics collection today, gonna be busy these few days....

Hrmz, my shrimps always have roe/eggs too...but the strange thing is both of them sometimes have it. Are my eyes playing tricks on me? Anyway, hows your baby shrimps? I've never noticed any...prob got eaten up by all my fat fishes...

Cool...your tank is getting nicer. Once it stables down, get a few nice coral and you'll have a great looking tank!

Where did you get it from? I has a yellow one which lots its colour over a few months. How much did you pay for it? True Blue ones would cost over a hundred dollars a piece i guess.

Red/Pink gonia spotted at G.octo Blue ones too....but rsv already.

Hrmz, is the file an aggressive fish? Looks like the other fishes are staying farfar away....

Wow...amazing looking tank!

Always had the feeling that it looks like a rainforest.....cOol and unique scaping too

*FainTz*

lOL...mei-ren-yu up for adoption too?

Post a picture! Haha.....
