Nice collection of fish. Maybe you want to consider having lesser rock and more swimming space for the fish in future? Just a suggestion. .

Hi bro. Thanks for the suggestion. I used to have very very little rocks. But with the lesser rocks, fishes tend to show more aggression. I'm trying to get them to be used to each other before removing more. My list of fish still not complete, so yes, I'll make plenty of room in time to come:)

One oversized skimmer is good enough.

I remember reading somewhere, there's a limit to how much can skimz..I oso think that one oversize skimmer will suffice..one more skimmer add heat n consume more electricity n take up space..

this article explains it. basically about 20% of total DOC in ur tank.

thanks for all the compliments :thumbsup:

Thinking if i should place another skimmer (deltec 1455) beside my skimz.

Any advice ?

and this article could be helpful for u :

If you want to improve your current filtration, maybe you can consider adding ozone to the skimmer. Thid will increase ORP and clarity of the water will be beneficial.

Hi bro. Thanks for the suggestion. Whats ozone.

Haven't hear this before

It is commonly use in fish farm to sterlize the water , similar effect as using a UV but does not kick ich. Maybe you can search around for some info

Hi bro,

What is the pro and con of both UV and ozone?

Hi,

What is the ORP range recommended?

Thanks.

theres no ballpark figure. I believed its 360-380 range. I observed onces your tank matured or stabilized it should maintained within these range. I noed if i have a dead livestock my orp reading would reflect sharp drop like 200+. These raises a red flag for me and get me to investigate the root cause.
