  3. that's weird..i have diy led, i can grow them and they have decent color. Granted i have only a few sps... who want to sell their sol to me ?
  4. I need to find a frugal way to feed the rotifier and most important reduced labor and space. After been reading a couple forums and articles, here are the 3 options to feed the rotifier: 1) Culturing your own phytoplankton by buying the nano culture kits from Florida Aqua Farm 2) Using Algae Paste from who?? 3) Feeding roti with yeast based product - like bakery yeast (add selco 12 hours prior to feeding roti to larvas) I am more interested in the option 2 and 3. If I purchased a (let say 1L of the algae paste such as Rotiplus), can i break it into portions and have it frozen in the freezer for up to a year? As for the yeast based product, how do you do it?
  5. hmm someone told me someone in here breed them :( I knew about B&W clown. I bought a pair from ALmon This is kind of clown I am looking for
  6. Anyone in here breed them? thanks
  7. Ya..there are a couple par38 out there slightly better (color wise and dimmable) Orphek Pr-25 - coming soon http://blog.captive-aquatics.com/captive_aquatics/2011/01/hands-on-preview-of-orpheks-pr-25-par38-led-spotlight.html New 7 LEDS Rapidled ...i heard the color mix is good Another par38 dimmable https://www.reefledlights.com/your-account/products-page/leds/ledsion-dimmable-par38/
  8. I think i have the similar problem with a couple of my acro and zoas...i have low alkanity and causes low pH..I started to dose kalk with ATO...zoas seems to bounce back but 1 piece of sps is dying..from base up..should i frag it to save it?
  9. That stuff is cyanobacteria. Reducing light aint going help. Increase your flow. Manual removal using the some net, at least you can reuse the water.
  10. saw that..a little pricey but it's nice. Now we have a few options out there 1) Good old Buckpuck - $15 a pop driver 6 leds or 7 if you are using XP 2) Meanwell - 40P or 40D or the 700mA one 3) Stevie LED driver 4) TRC
  11. I am thinking about dosing my 12g nano tank. There are some location I can't reach..i have some GHA and bryposis growing...i m thinking maybe 1ml...i don't have a skimmer though
  12. They do spread though. Best way i kill them off is using either epoxy them or glue them
  13. Found you something..Lowes has it. 5g bucket on wheel Maybe they have different options in store. http://www.lowes.com/pd_39130-1738-20000_4294856872+5003717+4294965396_40_?catalogId=10051&productId=3033026&Ne=40&identifier=Quickie&N=4294856872+5003717+4294965396&langId=-1&Ns=p_product_prd_lis_ord_nbr%7C0%7C%7Cp_product_quantity_sold%7C1&storeId=10151&searchQueryType=1
  14. i m planning to order some from them....want to go in for saving on shipping? Shipping is $12 flat regardless how much you ordered
  15. Dip it then gently brush it with your tooth brush then stir it in the water before goes back to tank....so far i have no see any GHA back yet...all the plugs
  16. Have you guys check out this site? This guy apparently running a website and doing all the negotiation with vendors and do group buy on all LEDs and drivers and acce. Looks legit. www.ledgroupbuy.com
  17. Maybe you should use a maxijet + hose to drain water and pump new water back in tank ..
  18. Same here..I would love to come over with a cutter to cut 2 small frags..that green thing and pink thing lol.
  19. i would imagine you don't water change that often since such a big volume of water and probably there is plenty behind the scene. Also you dont have much corals in there..so minerals are not a factor ...
  20. Very neat..Baltimore National Aquarium like a LFS compared to them...the national aquarium sucks anyway..the Australian display is a waste of space..rain forest is a waste of space (I pay to see aquatic life ..not some rainforest sloth)
  21. Did you dose the tank with h202? A lot of my algae came from frag plugs (corals I got from other people) GHA just pop out of nowhere. I am afraid to dose the tank with h202...not sure what's the effect on sps or lps
  22. I tried dipping frag plug (zoas only) that has a lot of gha and some with bropysis in peroxide, looks like all the algae are gone..it has been 3 days now..
  23. I heard about having your nitrate around 2ppm-3ppm and don't do any water change for 2 months+ will starve off the dino. I read it somewhere in RC i think
  24. at least you found it out after 1 day.... me on the other hand, unplugged the heat and pumps during water change before I left for Christmas on Wednesday night...Plugged the pumps back and forget to turn the heater back on!...I found out about it when i get home on Monday afternoon when the tank temperature is like 73F....but who knows what was the low point during those couple days!
