Thanks 35cents. Some info: -Tank Size: 4x2x2 (with 2 feet sump) -Using 8 x 54watts T5 (Just changed 4 of them to Deltec tubes) -Skimmer: H&S (For 800 litres.. forgot model liao) -Tank has been running since Aug 04.. (Happy Birthday!! Tank!! ) -Currently home of : AT, YT, BT Flame angel Orchid dottyback Sunburst Blue-eye anthias 6-line And another abt 10 smaller fishes like gobies. -Feed once or twice a day with 2 cubes of frozen mysis or brineshrimp each time. -Started with Zeovit in about late Oct '04 due to tank crash. Hope it can absorb all the NH4 during the crash then. I dump in the whole packet of Zeolite although i was warned to half the dosage first.It works for me as it reduces the nitrate level to undetectable range in abt 2-3 weeks after the crash. -I changed the Zeolite once every 2 months and the last time i change the media is prob abt 3 months ago. -Follow the dosing of 'Starter kit'. Was doing 4 drops of Zeofood every day.Then bought Amino Acid and Pocci glow to try.(Forgot exact date liao) -AA dosing cause some red slime bloom and Bro WL gives some advice. So i stopped it till now. Reduce the dosing of Zeofood to 2 drops every 2 days to help with the red slime. Pocci glow help to lighten the colours of the frags i got from fellow reefers. - Abt feb.Read some articles and realised i should dose zeostart to reduce nutrients. So started Zeostart dosing. Was dosing 1ml every 3 days. And Zeofood 2 drops every 3 days. Then STN happen and i stopped the Zeostart. -Changed the zeolites again in May. Used the whole bag everytime. -Only dosing Zeofood 2 drops/5days. -Shake the reactor once or twice a day. Left out anything?

Bro AS I remove the floss on top of the FR. So the mulm can flow out readily. Not trying to say its as effective or as good. Just that that my sump already has my skimmer in it and no space for the Zeoreactor. Guess its the best choice for me now. So the salifert test kit cannot tell the result..Well i try to judge visually and compare on the color chart. Its not totally clear as in the first bar on the chart and its lighter then the 2nd bar on the chart. And thus the guess. I will do it in my company lab then. Will update on the phosphate level again. What i wanted to say earlier is the the phosphate has not increased for the past months. (neither decrease). So i need to dose zeostart until the PO4 is all gone? Anything to note while dosing zeostart? Possible drop in dkh in the process? Bro WL kH crash? Hum.. can explain what you mean by crash? as in the value dropped till a very low level? i did notice my kh is pretty low now. Trying to pump it up now. The STN happened quite some time ago and i have not tested the water then. So no info for you to help me out.. So you dun dose any of the food now? I not very worry abt the SPS without food. More worry abt the LPS.. Yumas in particular.. What other info do you need? i can fill you in. Thanks for all the help form the bros here. SRC is still Home

Bros WL & AS Some Help needed... Background: Its been some time (Prob abt 3 months?)I stopped following the dosing of Zeo stuffs except for about 2 drops of Zeofood every week and the Zeovit in the FR Had a bottle of zeostart and i used it like 2 times and stop dosing when some of the 2 small colonies of Sps rtn. One of them seems to color up FULLY and then stn from the tip to the base (Any idea what might happened? Starved to death?) Had Amino Acid, PocciGlow as well. I stopped the amino totally after the red slime outbreak PocciGlow works pretty well for me in reducing the Zooxan. Measured the tank parameters the other day: Nitrate=0 Phosphate=0.01 Alk=6.5 Calcium=470 What should i do from here now? Time to get some new stuffs? Thinking of trying out other Zeoproduct. eg zeostart2 & Zeospur Are they avail locally yet? Its really been some time since I do something abt the system. Btw do you all feed your tank? eg phyto, zooplankton etc...? Pls Advise

i used to visit one of my dad's friend off the old tampines road last time.. prob abt 10plus years ago. He had two of the monsters in the 'cement' tank too.. seen the little fishes transform into monsters within 2 years or so... scary.. He kept eagles and crocs as well... Think its the same family you are talking abt?

I just donated $46 plus to NKF.. Not that i wan to donate that much (at least to me) Just that the number they display is the MOST EXPENSIVE number. And they dun display or tell you the cost of each call. I was waiting for them to say it in the show but it was not mention. In the end i need to go online to find out... -
Btw dun happen to be this sat at 2plus ya? Cos i watching leh.. i will look out for you!

Still waiting for you to post where to get the deal... That LFS sure going to be Overflow with us..

The pic you posted look like F.RIC! And it cost at least 35-50 bucks PER POLPY. If what you get is exactly like what you posted, THEN its... i also dun know how to describe.. Maybe er... Good Deal? Maybe you can post where you get them from.. Some reefers will be able to judge if its the same or not..
