SRC Member iskay Posted December 26, 2010 SRC Member Share Posted December 26, 2010 Interesting. Not many brave soul will go NPS. What's your parameters and How's your feeding regimen like? "Be formless... shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle; it becomes the bottle. You put it into a teapot; it becomes the teapot. Water can flow, or it can crash. Be water, my friend..." - Lei Siu Lung (Bruce Lee) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terryz_ Posted December 26, 2010 Author Share Posted December 26, 2010 Interesting. Not many brave soul will go NPS. What's your parameters and How's your feeding regimen like? Haha..... I hope it is not a wrong choice to go full NPS with softies... I haven been checking on my parameters... Haha.. My current food mix consist of - FM Ultra Seafan - 1/2 tsp FM Ultra Min F - 1/2 tsp Reef Pearls - 1/2 tsp Decap BSE - 1/4 tsp Nannochloropsis - est 5ml All of these are mixed into a 500ml container daily which is stored in the fridge ready for use the next day.. The food is being pumped into my tank via my modified food dosing pump, 250ml in the morning and 250ml in the evening.. My food dosing pump is modified from a aquamedic denitrator...

SRC Member LaW Posted December 27, 2010 SRC Member Share Posted December 27, 2010 i like ur nice scape. but do take note of dead spots. If a man could beat his own fantasy. Then to only breed in captivity. Then its pointless. Genesis 1:20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day. || Tank: 78" x 30" x 30" || Sump: 48" x 22" x 20" || Lights: PowerModule 10 X 80W|| Returns: 2 x HF32 || || Skimmer: BubbleKing Supermarin 300 || Wavemaker: 3 x 6100 & 1 x 6200, 2 x Wavebox 6212, WavySea || || FR: 2 x FR150 || NR: Sulphur Denitrator || CR: RM Custom Made 8" || KR: Deltec KM500 || TopUp: Tunze Osmolator 3155 || || UV: Coralife 12X 36W || Ozonizer: Sanders C200|| Controller: GHL Profilux Plus II Ex || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all the foods you are feeding, you are doing the food injustice by not adding another 5-6 crinoids.

FuEl Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 I love crinoids, but they are so hard to keep alive. With food development now, it is not an issue. Food problems have been solved. The only issue now is to deliver the food in a continuous manner. Once you overcome that most NPS suddenly become very easy. They are just like anthias, difficult anthias become easy once you start them on a continuous feeding regime.

They are just like anthias, difficult anthias become easy once you start them on a continuous feeding regime. But continuous feeding means high nutrients and more water change. It is quite a hassle to do frequent water change especially for large tank. If i go NPS it'll definitely be a nano tank, at least food costs lower and water change easier.

The only problem would be Nitrate that is why many NPS keeper are runnning Biopellets to counter the Nitrate.. Member of: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The additional bacteria mulm can further feed your NPS. For the phosphate generated, try using Goodbye PO4. More economical for NPS.
