  1. Agree with James, with sump you also increase the total water volume. Canister is known to be a nitrate factory after long usage
  2. oh ok thanks, I didn't have the manual as this was 2nd hand. I'm going to turn on only when I need to use now...
  3. Nice! I see some new shrooms and new caroline algae!!
  4. bro, not sure if like red scarlet hermit crab? CF has alot but better call and check first
  5. Did you get this from fish-street.com? Just want to add the reading speed of the pinpoint salinity monitor is a little slow, I was using it when I mix my water and didn't know it has over shot my required salinity untill 1 min later. Argh
  6. Was there yesterday afternoon. Left 3 blue tang ... I think no more by now
  7. Its near the famous frog leg porridge but not same building. 2nd floor from the linked bridge of hawker centre. Go to the famous Tian Tian Porridge side of hawker centre and find that bridge
  8. Sis Bell going for big change! Good luck!
  9. Good bro Klim lend me his UV for my tank. Just setup to blast my tank and kill all ich!!
  10. Beautiful tank! I don't think I can ever manage such big and nice tank. I also notice lesser fishes, are they hiding? Btw what did you 'hoot' on saturday, saw some bags in your hands when u went back. Hahaha
  11. Very good price!!! If only I can wait until now
  12. Oh just to add, if you want a mini chiller I think the Iceprobe is perfect. I used it on the first compartment inserting the cooling stick downwards into the water. No need to mount, it can just rest on the edges. Can drop to 26 on certain days... but Iceprobe is difficult to find now, can try asking the usual suspect LFS like Reefdepot, Petmart
  13. Don't think so, I was there yesterday and it was quite empty. Didn't see them in Pinnacle and Ah Beng too Btw anyone has update on Sealife? They close on Mon & Wed right?
  14. I kept a reef IQ5 before. If you have budget please upgrade the LED that comes with it, I don't think it is enough unless you just keep fishes. Since you want softies like rics, it is best you upgrade. Madpetz has par30/38 for your selection forget about the skimmer that Dymax makes for IQ5, I think you are better off with frequent water changes if you are using fan to lower the temperature, please take note the last chamber of your IQ5 evaporate fast and may overheat your return pump easily. So top up water frequently Tank is made of acrylic so it scratches easily, be careful when you do maintenance
  15. erm I am using Sanyo brand 9v battery. Maybe should change to a better one. I turn it on 24/7 maybe that's why it is so fast?
  16. Any bros using pinpoint salinity monitor? I am currently using 9v battery instead of the power adapter. Battery used up after 2 days use, is that normal? I like battery use so I can use it portable for two of my tank and in toilet when mixing salt water
  17. I have DD test kit for calcium used 1 time only but this is from the 3in1 test kit with KH CA and MG so will have no box. PM me if interested. Selling because I got Hanna CA checker
  18. Sony NEX-5N is 1.5x crop factor which means your 30mm would be 45mm only. At that focal length you can't take close up like the pic on my signature unless the target you are shooting is very near the glass or water surface. This setup is more for taking close ups on items you can reach readily. For e.g food or product photography where minimum distance is not a problem. For aquarium, the glass is restricting your close up distance unless all your gems are right in front
  19. anyone selling their Rics please let me know. Thanks
  20. FOC tank collected! LED also sold. Thanks Kaykay!
  21. buy the whole set then! Btw I think 30mm is a bit insufficient if you want really nice close up. Not familiar with Sony DSLR, is that model a full frame or crop body? I think you should consider 60mm or 100mm macro
  22. thanks bros!! Make me feel like taking more pics later.. hehe Btw, any Pharos users experience cloudy effect before? Was my first time experiencing cloudy since I first got my Pharos, quite fun. I thought it was going to rain
  23. just got one packet from Daiso! as mentioned, have to change once it is filled with dirt to prevent chiller or air con over work
