Jacky's Aquamedic Chromis Tank

[hammy]

Yeah quite messy at the top... but it's ok I guess, how often do you bow down to see the tank? Most of the time, you will look at it from higher angle, hence the pix u posted earlier where all the pumps are not visible. As for the external pump... how bad is the vibration? Is it noticable/annoying?

i can sleep with it . aquabee pump is fanstastic in term of quietness . next choice is ocean runner and eheim .

putting a piece of cloth under the pump greatly reduce the noise too. quiet humming sound .

Thanks bro... I will get a Aquabee 3000 for my chiller soon. Can PM me where u bought yours? Got a feeling you will know where to shop for good deals... not like me... always those 2 shops

pm u le .

u will not regret using this universal cenrtifugal pump man !

I always hear good reviews about Aquabee (for that size range)... so surely no regret... the only regret is I should've go straight to Aquabee instead of getting some alternatives that cost half the price... now I have to flood the Pasar Malam with pumpheads lor

But not so soon... after the Election Day holiday coz I will be out of town for a day or two. Perhaps after that

Have u visited G.Octo yet? According to bro Qxn, a lot of "solid" corals there... lucky u didn't rush down to Irwana that night... nothing much left already coz u a bit late...

hey , before u sell ur powerhead , please let mi know first , oh , are u selling The AQUAMEDIC Ph 2500 ?

[jervismun]

This week and next week has been declared as no LS weeks for me... I have a lot to tackle right now especially with the impulsive purchase of my first SPS... now I'm doomed... I probably sell the Sicce 2500/1300/800.

Hrmz, don't make it sound as if its the end of the world la. Haha, everyone makes mistakes....we just need to learn from them. Why not start with all the LPS first...they are way much easier.

That's what I'm gonna do... come to think of it... if I wanna do SPS, probably need to relook at the entire system setup already... perhaps next tank lah... but for Perc90, just keep it a LPS tank

Bro Qxn, it's not the end of the world, but it's really bad and sad to go out there and grab a piece of nature... just to let it rot in the tank... I don't know how rare this kinda shipment from Tonga is.

Your Anthias r so tiny... wait till u see my new GIANT Anthias!!! Courtesy of bro Colinsoon

Whoa, so nice tank. Your star polyp very healthy.

From photos, i realised you have only 1 for each type of fish, is it?

Small quantity but lots of variety, COOL!

Oops, my mistake! Sorry Bro Hammy.

The rest probably camera shy. It also so difficult to catch them all within a single shot but you manage. Guess thats what i am trying to say, u have lots of variety of fish and corals. Makes your tank very bright.

[prec]

nice and healthy corals u have there..

tank is small. fishes must be small too . how i wish they will never grow big .

[hammy]

nice and healthy corals u have there..

attribute to weekly water change and underdose of additive .

only recently i learn that dosing of additive like puple up , phosbuster and az-no3 will lower alkalinity a lot .

[hammy]

i think my cleaner shrimps just spawn . but tank are full of little dot and upon closer look , they have shape of a tiny weeny shrimp.

the anthias if having a good time !

sorry to sound dumb, but is that good or bad?

ya i guess they are meeting pair as i always see one's underside filled with green roe ...

[hammy]

come on , everybody is here to learn . not dumb lah .

reef alkalinity should be maintain at 3-5meg/l or 8-14 dKH. alkalinity that fall below 2meq/l wll drastically affect coral health .

[Qxnviolet]

Hrmz, my shrimps always have roe/eggs too...but the strange thing is both of them sometimes have it. Are my eyes playing tricks on me? Anyway, hows your baby shrimps? I've never noticed any...prob got eaten up by all my fat fishes...
