sps i did not see any red/pink ones sorry. Only saw purple, green,brown and blue.....not very interested in SPS, so i did not take a look. This shipment is mostly LPS...SPS also have but not very extensive. However, i went there a little bit late (9pm yea can u believe it?) so most of the gooies no more liao. sorry i dunno the price, i have a feeling it is $40-50 a piece. Usually when they clearing stock, they selling for 4 for 100. sorry i have been little to no help =( but i did not see any pink/red sps. Oh i saw ONE birdnest =) thats pink.... but dunno if will be there the next time u go..left 1.. =x

[ReDDeviLs]

My mobilisation used to be pasir ris camp....admire you bro ambystorm...you walk inside.

Reef depot dun bring much stuffs, but usually exotic ones...i nvr had the chance to see them coz the minute they touch down, grab ka liao.

I hope to c the australian corals this time.

bro, im quite curious who tell u got aussie coral coming ah?

[mopiko]

its also called indian ocean mimic tang..

recently got quite afew in the market.. reborn/cf also got.

but this is the first time i see so small in size.

about 1inch to 1.5inch only.

years ago i saw was 3inch at least.

hi dude indian mimic tang is very clear thanks.

[mopiko]

means the mimic tang is copying the looks of the eibli angelfish =) mimic means to follow/copy. so the tang is merely following and copying the "design and pattern" of the angelfish. BTW, just to be sure, is this the fish u saw in the LFS?

hi. yeap tis wat i saw at reborn. left 2 only. you buying? uncle say its hybrid, not so hybrid after all they mimic angel pattern but will still grow up to be a tang.

with inverts and corals more difficult. my FOWLR so not too bad. got good feedback for polyb lab medic so trying it out but super ex more ex den me seeing doc.

another way is to wait it out. this wat i did previously all fishes that survived will kind of be "immune" to ick.

I use Kent Marine RXP to flight ich. Seem effective and reef safe according to specs. Except don't used it with Star fishes, Sea Urchin, sharks and some other fishes and invertibrates.

Previously I kept some corals and seem RXP don't have impact on them. Maybe other senior reefer can comment.

Try running a UV steralizer. It helps to bring ich under control.
