(Currently no additives/supplements are added, just pellets and probably some frozen food)

Bro,

try not to buy market brine-shrimps unless you're damn sure that what they are feeding the brine is not animals' poo.

When I was in FW hobby, a LFS uncle told me that they feed dried chicken's poopoo to their brine to get them red and fat. Same goes for FW's earthworms and blood worms. So yeap, better not try. sibei scary.

as much as brine is concerned, try to breed them yourself. A $1 rice vinegar bottle or 1.5L coke bottle will do the job nicely for fresh brine everyday, 24/7, many feedings a day! :D All in tank will thank you greatly for being that nice and hardworking! :D

Happy Reefing,

Marc J.

Hey, thats what a farm uncle told me too! If you want to "brew" your own bbs, decap the eggs with bleach first. Save yourself the trouble from having to separate the egg shells from the bbs.

Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever.

What are the characteristics of this fish bro? pretty nice specimen bro.

your coral is still waiting for you ah...

Think it belong to the grouper family. Trying to adapt it to frozen and pellet food. Mostly 'meat eater, worms and such. Did a search in google and some even feed it with small guppies/goldfish! :eyeblur:

Quite a slow-motion eater, if tank filled with fast-moving eaters, then probably the rest will out-compete the comet. And to my observation, it prefer to hang out at darker corners of the tank.

      WTS Tanks, Equipment

      Hey everyone, I've a set of many things to sell off as one set. The following are in this set: 1. Long fish tank, 90x30x30 - beautiful glass, well taken care of, no scratches 2. Standard fish tank, 60x45x45 - beautiful glass, as you can see, still with bottom and top cardboard covers. 3. Metal stand for the long tank - rusted by strong. Usable. Please note the width of this stand is 50, and the long tank's width is 30, so there's around 15 cm space. 4. Nano tank, well taken care of. Beautiful glass. (The gadgets in there all taken out, so just tank with it's back sump. 5. A baby tank 6. A bunch of stuff: - Tidal 35, Seachem filter - two oxygen pumps - plastic fish tank protein skimmer - portable fan - large wavemaker - 90x45 nice tank background poster - mini filters Basically what's in there + take. In the photos below, I've saved some pictures from when I purchaser them. These were all used for marine/saltwater fish - if you want to convert to others; simply wash (that's why I got these tanks, flexibility). I've used them for a year or less. Selling since these are in my office, and we have settled on one custom size. And we may be moving. Need to send these off. Would prefer someone to take everything, clear everything. Only $220 for everything. If I see anything else I don't want laying around, I'll also pass to you. Self-collection/self pick up. Location: Indus Road, ground floor. PM me if keen, cheers!e0774394470a15537f6187c32e4cb04f.avif sg-11134201-22100-a8sr3atpx6ivfe.avif
