aloo....im upgrading my 2ft to 2x1.5x1.5 tank..erm...issit okay if i use the water frm the 2ft tank and transer to the new tank?

I believe ur old tank is still running while ur new tank is in the midst of cycling. Let say u perform 20-30% water changes on ur present tank weekly. Use tat 20-30% water u removed and pour it into ur new tank (of coz u nd to remove water accordingly by volume frm ur new tank before u top up or u'll flood ur new tank). Repeat the same for the second wk so tat u will ended having either 40-60% of old water frm present tank mixing with those in ur new tank. To play safe, let the new tank cycle as usual, test all necessary parameters and perform 50% water changes before u do the migration process. U might wan to transfer one of those sensitive coral u have into ur new tank and observe for 1-2days before finally transferring everythin.

      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.
