SRC Member desideria Posted December 3, 2010 Author SRC Member Share Posted December 3, 2010 iskay.. Gem Tang? bor $$$ leh.... I wish I was that famous Thai reefer who has the resources and the passion to boot. I bow to him everytime I see his tank updates. Siangz, If I get a PBT I will be asking for warzone in tank.. ahhaah now at least the YT, BT and AT seem to be getting along besides the occasional chasing by the YT to the At.. it's only Day 2 and so far most of the time the AT is left alone but sometimes the YT goes bonkers and chase him a bit and they both cross tail fins! Added a couple more corals bought from some kind bros here so I think have to stop liow after this Sat's LFS raid of Pasir Ris.. so long haven't go Pasir Ris.. I am LFS deprived!

SRC Member desideria Posted December 4, 2010 Author SRC Member Share Posted December 4, 2010 Hey Siangz, thanks for the ride this morning. Well... today was ok la.. not that many nice stuff but I think Ketchup and I spent enough. LOL The gornio we got is all opening up and the african zoos and the blue faced red skirting common zoos look really cool under the blue LEDs. Acan and strawberry coral is AOK. I noticed that there are a few white spots on the tangs and all the fishes are going to the cleaner wrasse for a cleanup ( yes I am aware that cleaner wrasse don't remove itch.)... I can only hope and pray that my LS is fit enough to fight it. THe UV is on 24/7 since the AT was introduced into the sump on saturday so I'm gonna leave it on for a while more until I know everything is ok. Been overfeeding ever since we put in the AT in on Wednesday night to make sure the fishes have enough food to fight off any infection. Doing an approx 100L Water Change tomorrow morning and throwing in bacteria etc. Fingers CROSSED TIGHTLY! YT is no longer chasing the AT around but they still do occasionally tend to cross fins. Hoping the rhomboid will also recover from it's swollen eye. it's almost a month and it's still in the beta box! Actually tomorrow we are going to a Freshwater farm to look for.. GOLDFISHES to put into our water feature in front. .... @mmbnz : good luck with your tank setup... this forumn is chock full of info.. and of course there's also your skill in GOOGLE-FU to find any information you need on keeping a salt water tank. GOod luck!! Quote Cheers, Desi Sheldon (TBBT): A little misunderstanding? Galileo and the Pope had a little misunderstanding... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Mnbmz, thanks for dropping by:) My advise is to think carefully on the tank size and stocking... FOWLR although easier to maintain may make u lose interest. I still think fish + LPS is the nicest:) Lastly, take time to cycle... i think we cycled quite fast with the live sand/live rock.. can and prob should take a little longer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC TOTQ Winner bellinayu Posted December 6, 2010 SRC TOTQ Winner Share Posted December 6, 2010 Couldn't make it in time for the Pinnacle shipment as I was busy with Christmas shopping or else I would have met you there. Yeah, heard that this shipment wasn't that good. It's either the corals are depleting with all the harvesting or you were there I believe it's the former la. Anyway, will see you for the next shipment.

SRC Member desideria Posted December 7, 2010 Author SRC Member Share Posted December 7, 2010 Nice pond. I would also put a Freshwater sting ray inside if i will you LOL Unlike the guy from M1 who swindled millions.. I am not gonna buy a $200,000 stingray.. lol Hmmmm.. I have to google what's an arapaima... omg.. that was one HUGE FISH!!!!!!!!!! anyway we only intend to keep goldfishes as we read that Koi though cute and small now will outgrow our pond.. and that would be too cruel. No proper filtration system just the media etc all thrown into the sump of the pond so we intend to keep our bioload as low as possible so that a bi weekly water change is all that's required to keep the Goldfishes alive and healthy.
