SRC Member Fuzz Posted January 7, 2005 Author SRC Member Share Posted January 7, 2005 It's been a long time since I update... was very busy recently... Tank is ok... added a RM beckett skimmer... now tankmates have improved tremendously... polyps are opened most of the time... more yumas have also sprung up... However, due to a careless switch of my RM calcium reactor... many corals suffered a melt-down... 2 clams died... calcium level dropped from 420 to 280 ... sigh...

CA level plunge because of that? I think it is a few days ... cos I have not been at home much since Christmas... do you suspect there is other culprits? 11dKH... pH is 8.4... 1.025... 1200 for magnesium... I do realised that from Nov 10 CA level was at 400... then Nov 20 CA level was at 380... Dec 10 was at 360... then refill the CO2... that's when levels drop to 280... could that be the cause?

SRC Member Fuzz Posted January 7, 2005 Author SRC Member Share Posted January 7, 2005 Wah that cam very good... most ex sony cam... bro roidan ex cam was also sony f828 I realised for close-ups, can still pass... but would have been better if it has inter-changable lens... I think I would have gotten the Nikon D-70 if I had known eariler that they drop the price down to $1600... Also, the Sony 828 has an ISO limitation of up to 800... not good enough for low light conditions.... On the good side, it has 8mega pixel and you can actually put in both Sony Memory and CF card... thus you get double the storage at any given time. Lens is ok la... just have to live with it... Here's a back view of my tank... Quote "Excellence is to do a common thing in an uncommon way..." My Reef Tank (Made by MarineLife) Fuzz 40 Gallon Office Tank...

DeepBlue Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 seems like your Ca Level has been dipping way before you accidentally switched it off.... best do brin git up and monitor closely whether it dips again.... Possible CO2 tank empty for quite a while liao?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roidan Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 it's a good all in one camera but from an ex-user, i realised that i cannot bear to shoot reef at above iso200 on the f828 because noise issues start to set in...very heavy noise....whereas you could probably get away at iso 800 with a D70 with less noise. It's the inherent noise problem of packing too many pixels into a small CCD...whjch is why i went the dslr way. but the f828 has served me well, i am sure it would for you too.
