reefex Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 After careful considerations and support from my LFS I've changed the aquascape!!! Uploaded some pictures... Any experts that think some corals are placed incorrectly that you think might cause negative effects please reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member peacemaker Posted May 4, 2008 SRC Member Share Posted May 4, 2008 Your bubble coral and gonio will need more space... they are the aggressive ones. Do you have any form of cooling equipment for your tank? 29.3 deg C is like hanging on the edge. The weather is getting rather hot these days, so do try to keep your fishes and corals nice & cool.

SRC Member kueytoc Posted May 4, 2008 SRC Member Share Posted May 4, 2008 If possible, remove all ya damsels cos' they're REAL rascals especially once they claimed their territorial rights in a tightly spaced environment.

Wah!! your eyes so sharp... But anyway I've got a cooling fan working with the AC/DC adaptor... But the air volume is just about 42 cfm... So it cools down about 3ËšC only.. Looking into getting a chiller and I totally agree with you these days are getting really hot... But fans are on only during the night but now sometimes in the day... The temperature in my tank can sometimes climb up to 31.3ËšC!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member peacemaker Posted May 6, 2008 SRC Member Share Posted May 6, 2008 There are plenty of LFS that sell decent fans. Try Petmart in serangoon. I used to have one meant for freshwater planted tanks to cool my 2 ft tank. It was able to maintain between mid 27 to low 29 deg C. However, the evaporation rate was crazy. Be prepared to do frequent water top offs. Using the fan is more like a temporary solution. Like what LaW said, investing in a good chiller would serve you better.

SRC Member Morpheous Posted May 6, 2008 SRC Member Share Posted May 6, 2008 Go to Sim Lim Tower.. They do sell fans... Just need to get a compatable adapter.... And of coz, invest in a water top up.... Mine always stays 29 n below...
