Haha now tank glass filled with algae. Somemore it's those that cannot be scrapped off kind.

Just got myself a secondhand arctica chiller and a Skimz BR80.

Shall all them either tonight or tomorrow night.

Hmm.. Any idea why is my algae bloom so terrible despite me using RO/DI water. Somemore I use a close loop RO/DI process where the water is filtered till zero reading before I mix the salt in.

To be honest, I used it for a month until my bacteria can sustain my bioload... After that I removed it so it was more of a temporary fixture... During that one month, I did not even clean the glass at all.

Right now I clean my glass every 3 weeks to a month, and usually it's done because I'm bored...

Even though you are using RO/DI, you probably still have phosphates in the water column. Have you checked the levels?

Phosphates are generated from decomposition of organic matter, so I don't think it'll improve by cultivating more bacteria.

=X shall think about how I can add in my phos remover.

Hmm.. On a side note. I have a feeling my spongebob set will have to go soon. My Yellow tang is nibbling algae off it and the next thing I see is the white naked resin. Hope the paint is not poisonous to it.

      WTS Tanks, Equipment

      Hey everyone, I've a set of many things to sell off as one set. The following are in this set: 1. Long fish tank, 90x30x30 - beautiful glass, well taken care of, no scratches 2. Standard fish tank, 60x45x45 - beautiful glass, as you can see, still with bottom and top cardboard covers. 3. Metal stand for the long tank - rusted by strong. Usable. Please note the width of this stand is 50, and the long tank's width is 30, so there's around 15 cm space. 4. Nano tank, well taken care of. Beautiful glass. (The gadgets in there all taken out, so just tank with it's back sump. 5. A baby tank 6. A bunch of stuff: - Tidal 35, Seachem filter - two oxygen pumps - plastic fish tank protein skimmer - portable fan - large wavemaker - 90x45 nice tank background poster - mini filters Basically what's in there + take. In the photos below, I've saved some pictures from when I purchaser them. These were all used for marine/saltwater fish - if you want to convert to others; simply wash (that's why I got these tanks, flexibility). I've used them for a year or less. Selling since these are in my office, and we have settled on one custom size. And we may be moving. Need to send these off. Would prefer someone to take everything, clear everything. Only $220 for everything. If I see anything else I don't want laying around, I'll also pass to you. Self-collection/self pick up. Location: Indus Road, ground floor. PM me if keen, cheers!e0774394470a15537f6187c32e4cb04f.avif sg-11134201-22100-a8sr3atpx6ivfe.avif
