Jervis' Full Time Job

Guys, just to highlight that the usage of a UV Sterilizer is not a necessity as there are many reefers do not run a UV... however I've decided to add it to my system (at least for the time being) as I've added a few new fishes last few weeks and some of them are known to be ich magnets :o And the recent algae bloom is also part of the reasons... if everything is to settle down... I might just disconnect the UV until the next time I add new fishes :eyebrow:

And do bear in mind that almost all living organisms that pass through the UV will be sterilized... either killed instantly, damaged/injured or not being able to reproduce... that includes good bacterias also. This can potentially be a problem for those keeping SPS and relying on these good bacterias for natural feeding... for my case, I do dose sufficient food such as Roti-feast, Phytoplanktons, Reef-roid, Cyclopeeze, Zooplanktons and also the old-fashion "stirring of sand bed".

Everything has its pros and cons :lol:

dat monti

the purple/bluish patch will turn green as well? <_<:heh:

Sis Waner, actually that patch is grey in colour (looked purple under my lighting)... I suspect it is a form of discolouration :erm: But the good news is the green is coming back... I expect that patch to be gone within weeks :)

Actually it has baby blue polyps which can't be seen in the pix :huh:

zoom in n marco :heh:

let us drool :lol:

Cannot as the specimen is quite deep inside... I need a even more powerful macro lens to achieve that ;) Please don't suggest I go that direction :lol:

Here's a macro just as stunning... specially for you sis... red red LAVA!!!

Lowered my Grotech Photon Plus light fixture by 3" this morning... making it 6" from water surface right now... transferring a significant amount of heat into the water I suppose... but no choice lah :cry:

if you lower the light. means more heat.

which also means that your chiller is gonna spent a lot more time

cooling down the water.

means electric bill a lil higher.

Well... that's a very possible scenario bro Godzilla... definitely more heat transfer as MH is known to do that... but for my case, I will be combining/replacing some of the pumps in my tank as early as next week... by saving up to 100W worth of 24/7 pump consumption... I believe that will counter the increment.

Bottomline is... yes my chiller will work harder no doubt... that's part of the hobby I guess :unsure:
