Lightings affecting Passer and Queen Angel
Uptempo replied to Uptempo's topic in FOWLR (Fish-only with Live-rock)
agree.... my last setup was totally wipe out due to scrubbing of my sump after 2.5 yrs. All fishes down with multiple viruses like velvet, brooklyn etc over 3 days. I suspect i have activated the viruses to turn active. -

Lightings affecting Passer and Queen Angel
Uptempo replied to Uptempo's topic in FOWLR (Fish-only with Live-rock)
bro... i would like to but the aggressive is extreme. The passer chase non stop. Even when queen goes to a top corner to avoid, the passer continues the relentless attack. Then nips the fins and attack the body. -

Longest time without water change
Uptempo replied to cutebarra77's topic in FOWLR (Fish-only with Live-rock)
I change mine once every 1 - 1.5 months for 50%. I think if your bio system is robust and don't overstock, the water quality deterioration will be at much much slower pace. I have ever seen a reefer keeping a 5inch blueface only in a 5ft tank with no water change entire year. Skimmer also those less powerful type. -
Wish to seek advise from all bros here. I have a 3inch Passer and introduced a 2.5inch Queen in a 3ft FOWLR setup Have caged the queen in a betta box in display for 2 weeks. Once released, the Passer showed extreme aggression with full lights on. However, once I turn my lights to blue led only, the Passer will leave the Queen alone. Therefore, it seems like the Passer recognises the Queen colour when white led lights are on. I can't be perpetually having blue lights on. Any advise how i can reduce the aggression from the Passer? Catching the Passer is not a viable option for me now till next water change which is 3 weeks later. Other fishes: 2inch Asfur 3 x 1.5 inch YT 1.5inch flame angel Thanks.

Very nice 3-sided view tank. Whats the height of the tank?

Are your fishes still eating? If you have cupramine and they are still feeding, give it a few days to let the copper to take effect. Do rem to test your copper level frequently.

How much you spend on this hobby?
Uptempo replied to Happy13's topic in New to the Marine Aquaria Hobby
Planning is key. invest smartly during the startup then the upgrade cost can be reduced. plus pasar malam helps a lot. -
For fowlr, would you consider at least 3ft up? I am sure you are attracted to many species of fishes.A larger tank can house more fish, easier to maintain with higher water volume thus having more stable parameters. Do consider as I am one who is having at 3.5ft fowlr currently and constantly thinking of upgrade.

NLS and Hikari seaweed pellet

My trio YTs love the hikari seaweed pellets as well. Strangely mine do not really like mysis.

serious problem! fish keep dying!
Uptempo replied to evomclaren's topic in New to the Marine Aquaria Hobby
Try to get fishes that are already feeding. Once in your tank if they start eating, with stable water parameters they will normally be able to fight diseases in the new environment. you might want to share what fishes are placed inside. Some fishes might be more challenging.
