Hi Kias, Are you saying you are paying $120 (MH + chiller) in additional to your domestic use ? That's a big percentage from my pay cheque. Limpc

got details or not ? Limpc

Check out the shop in Eunos Industrial Park. They sell wood only. Limpc

Hi Tanzy, Thanks for reply. Since Blue PL is monochrome, does it have any aid in photosynthesis ? It certainly gives a bluish tint to the water ? Limpc

Hi all, Most of you might have come across the blue PL light, eg Aqualux 36W Blue. What actually is the color temp of this light ? For sure, this is not actinic because it is much much cheaper than the true actinic and it does not give the glow on certain coral. Thanks in advance, Limpc

Hi Yazid, 1. What was the price you paid when new ? 2. Reasons for migrating to your new setup. thanks in advance Limpc

Hi all, Saw the poll about popularity of 4 types of carbon. I would like to ask a simple question. Is there any difference between carbon used for fresh water and marine water ? The prices of carbon varies too much, from China branded to high end branded. Limpc

Hello, King of DIY at it again. Better quickly put my name in his order list. Ke ke ke. Share with us your plan leh, Ian. Limpc

coralife true actinic ... about $50.00 for 36W. saw in AquaMart. Limpc

thanks guys. Will update if I finally won the battle against nitrate. happy valentine. Limpc

Hi, I cannot imagine high nitrate with so few livestock. here's my suggestion: 1. frequent water change 2. use AZNO3 to cope with high level immediately. This is a temporary measure to maintain your tank while you: a. locate source of nitrate contribution and eradicate it b. incorporate DSB, refugium in your sump. Limpc

ok, ok. Let me be an idiot again, forget about all the scientific terms ..... would a 6" DSB with refugium located after a skimmer be ok for denitrification process ? hmmm, hope to get some lay man reply. Limpc

So what u do for the cloudy water ? Limpc

Sure or not ? Tried before ? Is it anaerobic or aerobic bateria ? scarlee my fishes kena diabete and have to send them for dialysis. Limpc

Hi, IMO, mushrooms, xenia, fingers .... most softies. But of course, basic water parameter must be achieved. Limpc

kena blur by you, leh. I thought DSB is to deplete the oxygen level to the min. for the anaerobic bateria to survive and thus using up the NO3. Limpc

Is this the shop that is newly opened with half of the shop selling hardware and there is a marine tank on display ? I bought the #1 from there just b4 new year and apparently he still have stock at the time. The owner of this shop is the brother of the shop in Chinatown. Good luck. Limpc

Hi all, Somehow I have setup up a refugium with DSB and some macroalgae. Hope to control the nitrate level. Are there any way to shorten the leadtime to cultivate the anaerobic bateria ? Any additive etc ? I came across some nitrate reducing stuff from Tetra in the Clementic fish shop. This stuff is to be mixed with the substrate and claims to be effective in nitrate reduction. Wonder if all these bullshit is true. Comments please. Limpc

Joe, got picture ? Limpc

Hi, Sorry for late reply. I'm using one from WH. Limpc

Hi NormanH, Looks like you have a Kong Fu showdown in your tank. Very interesting. Any sequel ? Think I have to bite the bullet and try. THanks guys. Limpc

hmmmm, so far 3 for Coral Beauty and 2 against. I'm confused. Maybe just like human being, there are many different behaviour but still known as human being. Limpc

Hi, Thought of buying a coral beauty but was concern about it being reef safe. Read some info on web but would like to have first hand info from members of SRC. Thanks in advance Limpc

Has anyone kept a record on the electricity bill before and after installation of chiller ? Please share. Thanks Limpc

No wonder my buttons are in such poor state now. What's the best way to remove them ? thanks Limpc
