  1. Nice collection bro, obviously all your SPS healthy with outstanding PE and color. Envy your duncan anyway.......hmm........
  2. Hey welcome back, another one zoa's kakis is here. Dont neglect me if you want to get more zoa ha! Upz for your sales, bro.
  3. Yap just talk to Steven last Sat and saw about a dozen of them as well as rowaPhos on promotion. Good price as I can say. Grab them while stock last. Be getting them this week end, my first try. Anyway do any reefers using this brand and any comment. Cheers
  4. Either color, smell or taste. Very yummy!! LOL
  5. Haha bro, this incident just happened to me too. My flame angel feasted on my newly acquired aussie acan CF latest shipment (my 1st try) just the very moment I placed it in the main tank. Luckily I had only two aussie acan and managed to safe them by tranfering to my fragging tank. But dont be surprise, even in my frag tank my fox face doing the same LOL. But no worry, coz am having another frag tank as reserve for lps. There no fish and they start to bloom back. Thanks god! I believed there kinda good taste with the aussie acan as my old fellow acans (normal one five of them) never being touch at all by the fame angel. Btw you have alot of GEMS there bro, and wish you good luck on your endeavour.
  6. Wow! Your shots always astonishing! Jaws dropping!
  7. Very nice! Like your colonies formation in pic 11. Upz for you bro.
  8. We are OT though anyway here is the safe calculator if you dose them. Come with proper advice for dosing of the supplement. http://reef.diesyst.com/cf/chemcalccf.html Cheers
  9. Agree with you Ah Siang, sudden dropped in PO4 will have adverse effect on corals. In fact most parameter should never be adjusted drastically within hrs. In my case the deployment of the PO4 remover lately make my 3 LPS STNed as they had been comfort with certain value for years. I dropped it value from 0.16 to 0.056ppm (checked by hanna) in 2 days. In another case also one occasion at sudden 3 deg elevated due to chiller pump not working my SPS RTNed within 8hrs. So corals especially SPS sitting at comfortable zone of temp 26-27 deg or lower thru the year will be shocked at that big margin temp rise. Recommendation best around equatorial water temp near 29deg. If any fault in chiller temp rise it will be small. Though there are pros and cons keeping coral at high temp. Yes bro you should not disturb stable colonised bacterial system in the tank like what you had said wall of your tank, rock works and SB etc. Anything you have to adjust will have to do in small adjustment. Yap very sad Jizz, recommnd you change your skimmer at an oversize 1.5- 2X if your skimmer is under rated. Mean while WC at 15-20% using good salt mix and siphon all possible detritus and blow the rock works. Most importantly monitor your water parameter stable KH/Cal/Mg/Sr/temp/Sg tro out these week.
  10. TS had bring good discussion on SPS issues here. Mod should this thread move to SPS and Advanced Reefkeeping forum? For him I seconded Wilson checklists that you MUST follow. Am not an expert, I discovered you use kind of enzymes to remove PO4? Goodbye PO4 I believed. In general all this products are very effective and myself using more powerful enzymes for commercial use from US to help my PO4 issues that make my SPS one time browning! This incident happened due to believing chemical test given by some test kits as Sherman mentioned. Hanna photometer or checker now a days the reliable one, Enzymes removing PO4 is excellent in doing the job BUT with a good working skimmer in compliment. As this enzymes will precipitate instantly your PO4 in the water column and normally make the water chalky right? This precipitates should be skimmed out at that instant. But thats not possible as some residue will slip and deposited in you live rocks and DSB. Due time you have accumlated PO4 residue in your SB as well as in your rocks provided you have a good wavemakers to push and aggitate them out in the water column and skim by your skimmer. I recommend wavebox or kind of wavemaker like MP40 that perform wave movement/ surges to flush the rocks in between. They also bring food to your coral on the low gradient side (if you reed more about how water flow is important for corals than light), Then your SB you need good crews of sand shifter to stir the. The rest skimmer will do the Job. So if you keep on pouring this PO4 remover it will not do good infact detrimental in long run. Counter productive. Its JMHO. IME, 2ndly browning may come from not enough light. My recommend is MH 250W at least or Good reliable HO t5 tube suffice for the job. There so many issues on enhancing colors and preventing STN/RTN. Have faced this numerous time and am still learning. +1 on the issues of KH! as Mr Cedric brought out, That is another killer of SPS. Actually SPS keeping is very challanging that the interesting part when you later see how they shoot and grow. Learning distance that never end. PATIENT is the key I bet. Happy 'sps'ing
  11. Wow! nice and unique setup. Wish to own one if downgrading but not the right time. Yet good offer bro. Upz for you.

  18. So Sorry bro all mangroves reserved, but will put in the list if any of the reefers that reserved back off. Can you PM your contact no. pls, so can ctc you as soon as they back off.
  19. Thank you very much to everyone for your inputs on this issue. Especially Oni whos very helpful brought this issues. Appreciated that bro:welldone: Updates here, as what ducados mentioned, I followed and look like its work. Scraped them clean and shut off the light. Now about 3 weeks no more that green algae. I believed Ah Siang is right. Some of the pointers surely bring that bad algae. Its character like cyno-bac. It is indeed a good learning and sharing subject that will benifit all reefers here. Another issue of this sea hare as I had tried once in my fragging tanks, they are best cleaning up crew but the risk is the chance of them relaxing in your wavemaker at one moment pump on ullalla... But I had no issue on them with fishes so far coz had only 2 fishes in there not in my main tank.
  20. Having about 50-60 mangroves rooted with bud. Clearing cheap at 3 for $1. PM me if interested collection at CCK A2 or mrt.
