Hi to all SRC members, i have decided to create a new thread after 3 years, previously known as rainbow reef! Throughout, upgrades has been done, and unfortunately went through a crash 2years back that wiped out 3 salt buckets of precious SPS/lps and clams due to electrical faults. Had the initial urge to stop reefing then but decided to continue keeping it simple due to time commitment issues. I will be documenting progressive shots and hope you guys would like it, so stay tune!

Immediately made new salt water and took the Plausible survivors but some still perished within the next 12hours.

With the current advancement on variety of instant bacteria strains, the kick start works and helps alot. 

Decided to have a powder blue as the first dominating fish to prevent ich stress outs.

Year 2019 Revolution

All grew well throughout but nutrients was a little high due to time commitment limitations. Nonetheless Lps and softies were happier than the sps, but with nutrients, sps colorations are denser and sometimes better infact.

Had to arrange the Red stag down as it was bleaching due to light intensity and fortunately recovering well and the SSC took its throne at the peak of the mountain.

Even the tank is sweating

What was the cause of the 2018 crash?

Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
 

Due to a China ATS. Should be due to water entering the led sections and shortcircuit the panel. Therefore, do watchout for ats with the leds within the same box, even if it is rated waterproof. Risked it, and baboom.

Not the neatest sump with the vines hanging as the backdrop. Else the goal was a simple oldschool sump for ease of maintenance. Therefore just a skimmer, ats and medias

For members who are interested in my tank parameters

The current tank parameters, its currently maintaining at

Kh 7.5

Ca 500

Mg1500

 

Nutrients wise are not tested and judged by some sps coloration as indicators and film algae indicators

Should be on the lower sides. So far judging from coloration and algae is sufficient and have been doing so for years therefore didn’t get testskits.

But recommended for those who are unsure to test to find out the levels to be sure instead to tackle any spikes or imbalances in nitrate and phos
