[roidan]

wah liewwww....u killed it for wat??haha

give to us here mah.....wat happened? how u killed it

[bwilly]

PT kenna ich.. I lay trap n manual use net to catch..

after 30mins manage to catch one.. stupid CS..

somehow it manage to jump into this ammonia monitor patch..

get itself stuck while escaping my net.

wahaha..

so I get the CS, n straight dump it in the PT cage.

(from reef to fowlr tank) I know its fragile.. tik it

got PH n temperature shock.. haha..!

I used to have abt 8 CS in my reef tank.. now left 2.

recently the fowlr tank sole survivor CS also died..

I stir up the debris when I try to catch my PT..

surprising the camel shrimp is alot more hardy.. but

seldom comes out to get leftover food, can't blame it,

cause its half blind.

[roidan]

wah..so drama...their eggs will be good coral food u know..hehe..

i always see their green eggs but never see them unloading them...lol

wah...8 shrimps slowly gone..tats quite alot of money also bro...

[aStRoBo|]

my CS never work.. hide till feeding time..

then swim up to grab the food.. kinda of hate

them now.. n their r greedy buggers..

snatch food from my bubble too.. ! just killed

one CS.. recently.. damn happy.. haha..!!

more like a pest now to me..

Ya..my cleaner also nv work, got food flow past action very fast go grab the food liao..they are getting lazy in captivity..

[bwilly]

actually i bought more than 20 CS, now left 2..

hehe.. used to have a fetish for them, cause tik they will do work..

at least clear uneaten food for one.. now dun even do tat. steal food more like it.. so I never going for CS for now..

yeap...aquaC ev240..

can find it at www.eaquanature.com, our sponsor

[alanseah]

well dont over feed...

cause this is always the case where the CS will take the easy way out...

once u over feed and they start to form a habit of eating food you feed.. then that's it... very hard to get them back to cleaning again...

[roidan]

my 2 timers for the T5 lights in the sump...

first timer switches on a single tube....after an hour the 2nd timer switches on the other 2 tubes....then after the photoperiod, the 2nd timer offs the 2 tubes before the first timer offs the last tube

[roidan]

the 3 timers for my main tank....

one for the blueplus T5 lights...

one for the single center MH lamp...

and the final one for the 2 MH lamps left and right...

[ah^siao]

so many timers sia?

y not use one for the whole of the extension?

then u'll save.. for the MH part?

means the extension is attached to just a timmer to on the MH since they all on the same time?

[roidan]

they never on at the same time mah..hehe

coz the blue turns on first....then after an hour, the center MH fires up....then after an hour the left and right MH fires....and then the blue turns off....

then in the evening...the blue turns on again for an hour before the left and right turns off....then an hour later the center Mh turns off....and an hour later..the blue turns off..hehe

if just use one timer...all 3 MH fires at the same time ah...from sleeping mode the corals go into cooking mode liao..hehe

[ah^siao]

oh okok.. hahhaa... i tot all 3 lights up at the same time ma..

take more pics? of your sump? always your tank nv take sump?

[roidan]

oh okok.. hahhaa... i tot all 3 lights up at the same time ma..

my sump ah...so dirty and untidy...lol....only the clams side of the sump i show liao mah..hehe

[roidan]

ok..i go take a look at the clams when they are sleeping now..shhhh.dun wake them up..hehe

[ah^siao]

where u bought your rics from?

[roidan]

marine life lor...

[roidan]

just taken..all sleeping..hehe

[alanseah]

you like that use extention to power the MH lighting you would scare power overload meh...

quite dangerous leh...

your 3 Mh light will add up to..

150w x 3 = 450w and then plus blue light and other stuff..

[bwilly]
