[weileong]

Elbow added to EV-240 gate valve to help reduce the noise from the water splashing down.

[ah^siao]

that certainary looks like choppy waters..

wad pump u using as a return? how many tunze inside?

[weileong]

2x6000 tunze.

Return pump is attman with flow rate of 4000 l/h.

[ah^siao]

how u place your tunze?

oppsite firecton or both at the same size of the tank.. mine also 4 feet.. with 2 tunze.. every single thing in my tank moves...

alot of current

[weileong]

I run mine in pulse mode and about 7sec duration.

I aim the two tunze at each other and they are place diagonally across the tank. Still not decided on the position yet. My smaller "hill" seems to get lesser current. The fishes sure will enjoy it lol.

I need to go buy the extension kit again cos cut one wrongly, end up too short.

[weileong]

Transferring LS over from my 100 litres tank.

See what I found in the refigium? (LR from the 100litres was moved over to the refigium in my new 4ft.

I thought I saw some baby guppies.

So far only seen 2 and they keep moving around, very difficult to photograph. Size around 3mm. Fries from my skunk shrimp. My 100 litres tank had an outbreak of ick and that killed all my clownfish so I had the tank without fishes for more than a month already.

[bwilly]

oh.. baby shrimp..!

[jc85]

wow. cool. u manage to raise them.

[Terryz_]

Cute... you actually got them to breed... Cool... hehe...

[weileong]

daddy/mommy of the fries.

Now another one pregnant, better catch and keep in the refigium

[bwilly]

hehe.. some show up played each nite..?

[weileong]

[bwilly]

blood shrimp from OP

is it called a fire shrimp or blood..?

pretty reef safe..??

[weileong]

nothing special done. They just appeared to carry eggs then about 2 weeks later disappear (hatched). This time I will try to catch the pregnant one then put in refigium then see can raise or not.

Strange thing is that I only dose DT only once every 4 days and 7.5ml for my 100 litres tank.

[Terryz_]

Isnt fire and blood shrimp the same...

[weileong]

Nassarius Snail? Came together with the livesand from Maxima, thanks

[weileong]

I transferred my anemone from the 100 litres to the 4ft and this BTA end up got suck into my tunze. When I saw it, 1/2 of the BTA already into the strainer.

Luckily discovered in time. Else sure die. Luckily only 50cents coin sized I think die also won't crash the tank.

I quicky remove the strainer and put it onto the LR so it can slowly move out.

[weileong]

went out for dinner and back home and the BTA already moved all the way into the strainer, I removed it and check the foot for damage.

Found no damage so relocated it to a safe area in the tank.

[weileong]

my pink luminous BTA, besides it a brown anemone. The LR they stick on are transferred together with them from my 100 litres tank, a bit of algae, once they move away I will take it out and give it a good scrap.

[weileong]

My clam, bubble, scallop, mushroom and prata.

Just visit the LFS and fish farm every weekend and you can find these small ones.

I bought this from TM in Parsi Ris.

Normally pple don't buy these type so small one because they still sell at same price as the larger one.

[Terryz_]

I like smaller ones coz when expanded dun take up too much space... hehe... will try going to TM... to see see got anot...
