Yeah i have to agree.It is one of the best test kits available here other than D-D test kit.But it costs a bummer and is not available in AM.Unless you decided to take the most accurate Aquatronica system.No test kit just use electricity.

But that is really out of my budget radar liao...

oh wells dude, you just got to get his monster skimmer and I am sure you can offer such quality of water to our fellow Singaporeans! heh :D

Anyway, about test kits, I will say that test kits offer a range of readings about your water parameters. It does not specifically highlight what is the main problem going on in your tank. What I will advise you to do is look through and reflect on the actions you have taken thus far for your tank. Sometimes our most eager and innocent action can be a fault line (:

Definately a no no. Some life stock might suffer from shock of sudden water perimeter changes. max i would say is 50% and there's still a risk of shock hor.

Since now after exam u so free.... change 10-20% everyday lah :P

Lol i remembered i want to put bowen sec but my mum put Hougang sec.But i then realised that the school has a lot of friendly people and is very strategic place since i can go to GO by bus,AM Jalan Kayu by bus and a straight bus to AM TK.

Anyways good luck hope you don't drop to the NA stream.I am in the NA stream and i know how life it's in the NA stream especially when you are sec 3 onwards and in the Foood & Nutrtion,Design & Technology and Art class.I took F&N.Wow the class is chaotic and every year sure got fights in the class.Wah then lesson time a lot of people sleeping.

Anyway are you the guy who went in AM around 4PM just now with the roller blades?

Hows the tank doing? All's fine?

You may want to watch the amount of lifestock in your tank (fishes + corals). Seems like you have been very aggressive in adding them when your tank first started.

You can invest in the probio products, those allows U to build up bacteria level in your tank rapidly and can help to stablise your ammonia and nitrate levels.

A note on NSW. After changing your current tank water with NSW, remember to adjust the parameters for CA, KH and MG. Essential to keep the corals thriving.
