[colinsoon]

bro

sorry to hear bout the RBTA. dun worry too much bout the tank. it will be fine. really.

[jervismun]

I am home... was expecting but I found this

Everything seems normal... already did a head count... all fishes, inverts and corals accounted for... even my elusive Randall is accounted for

[colinsoon]

wahhh nice nice nice!

bro your top left corner too hairy already. can pass some to me already. hahah

[jervismun]

Only this guy is working extra hard

Everything seems under control... I even have time to post

[raydiative]

good for you bro! glad theres no casualty! =]

[colinsoon]

not to be a wet blanket, but i think it takes a few days for the fishes to react, if there is anything that is gonna happen. i mean thats for me, cos i got nothing to test ammonia, so when i realised ammonia was like spiking realy bad, its already too late... for you i dun think there is anything to worry. juz monitor the ammonia bro. cos there might be some debris trapped in some corners that might really contribute to the A.

But there can be long term effect though... tested Ammonia right away... and as expected... 0.25!!!

At least all my fishies are eating... including the Dispars feeding happily on pellets

Nitrite still undetectable... as expected

[lyz77]

No worries bro... we will pray hard for your tank!!!

Hehe bro I already look into it already... spent the last couple of hours (body at office, mind at home) planning my actions... I will use a pump to do a flushing on all corners and LR now.

I am already preparing salt mix for water change later... but need to let the water settles a while first... I should've mix it earlier

[jervismun]

You want to see damage?!? Hehe... here's the damage Turboflotor rocks!!! Considering the low amount of power it consumes

[jervismun]

And not forgetting my "first-line-of-defense"

The smell is really bad... it's the usual protein skimmer smell mix... lime... fish market smell... all mix into one... my bathroom is still smelling like a fish market now

Better get the bathroom cleaned/aired before someone returns

[acidjazz]

time to get another RBTA!!!!!

[jervismun]

time to get another RBTA!!!!!

Emm... there's one inside your tank hor... looking for someone to adopt?

Nitrate is <0.3 mg/l

[jervismun]

Bros and sis... I am very very touched to receive a PM from another forum just now... here is the exact content:

I've a deltec skimmer APF600 + sander ozoner. I think the deltec couple with your current skimmer should help to remove as much wastes as possible.

You can ask your friends to pick up from me. I can lend them till you tide over this episode.

14 spare bottles of distilled water is also available but you may a van to pick them up. If not you can pick any numbers of bottles you need. Per bottle is 18.9litres.

I've numerous wavemaker, tunze 6060, seio 620, seio 1100 which can lend to you too for mixing water etc.

Let me know.

After 5pm, it's better you contact me thru mobile

xxxxxxxxx (his mobile no.)

Hoping all the best to your tank!

xxxxx (his nick contains 5 alphabets)

this kinda bro where to find

[jervismun]

Mixing in action... 10% of my tank water (approx. 7.5 US Gal) at a time... I use my Tunze Mini to speed things up

[jervismun]

Flushing time... I hope my old Sicce Multi 800 is good enough

[acidjazz]

Not bad. . not bad at all. . that shows tt u are nice enuff for nice chaps like that guy to willing lend his equipments to you.

[colinsoon]

i am also a nice guy, but how come nobody lend things to me.. haha..

[jervismun]

[jervismun]

Hehe... my tank survived the first round... now Ammonia will spike... my last test revealed 0.25 already... an alarming content IMO... so right now prepare to change 10% of water every night for the next 3 nights... all equipments run full force... also will continue dosing Kent Marine Ammonia Detox

[Tigger]

I have a similar experience during my early reefing days. Anemone gone missing(melted). My skimmer skims like mad but no crash.

Increase aeration should help to breakdown NH4 more faster.

Nowadays no more anemone for me. All the best.

[beaver]

My condolences to your RTBA It was a beauty

[jervismun]

Thanks bro Tigger and Beaver for your support... yeah no more Anemone for me... except those pest anemones I am too lazy to remove... perhaps... one fine day...
