my Nitrite just now... Increased to 0.2... What could have caused it huh... I only added a Macroalgae rock from reb***... And three anthias... Could these be the cause...

Your system hasn't mature yet, the fact that nitrite is detectable means your system's ability to process ammonia isn't stabilised yet. Though not as toxic as Ammonia, NO2 is capable of dealing death to sensitive fishes.

As mentioned, leave the tank to mature for a while. Perhaps do some more reading while you're at it :)

Please elaborate

I meant that the tank does not have enough bacteria to handle the breakdown of NH4 and No2 effectively, causing either NH4 or NO2 to be present in the tank.

And I've read it somewhere on the web mentioned that ammonia surge usually occured in the night (or lights off). Something to do with pH level. but I dun have the details now. (need to go and search the information again.)

That would only mean that the system is barely supporting the LSs and therefore surge at the slightest problem..

Why do we use "My 2 cents worth" when 1 cents are not legal tender in Singapore anymore? Shouldn't it be 5 cents worth?

VISI-JET-PS® protein skimmer

Visi-Jet®PS is an economical protein skimmer for aquariums up to 70 gallons. Visi-Jet®PS has a Turbo-Venturi™ injector system to mix filtered air and water within the pump impeller chamber, creating a froth of micro-bubbles for maximum skimming efficiency. The built-in flow meter provides accurate visual monitoring of true flow volume through the pump and into the protein skimmer. Micro-bubbles contribute to improved gas exchange. Dissolved organic compounds are separated from water to produce a concentrated foam mixture of waste products that is pushed up the column into the foam collection receptacle where it can be easily discarded. The directional output sends oxygen-rich water down and out into the aquarium. Visi-Jet®PS protein skimmer uses a prefilter to filter out large particulates, algae, and aquarium animals, preventing them from entering the pump impeller chamber.

      FOC Coral Bandid Shrimp

      Hi, I'd need to give away my CBS named Shadow. He's a decent sized guy, been with me for a few months, a darling of a shrimp. But he's started attacking my small fish, fish have gone missing through the months, few have died the past week. Unsure him or anything else. My current fish are all healthy. Free of charge. Just promise to take good care of him. Please quarantine him first, or put him in a fishless setup for a few weeks. Self collect at Indus road. Cheers.
