Bro best advice is to leave your tank alone. Except for testing the water parameters. Tanggalin mo na lang yung detritus pag nag water change ka.

Ganda nung pagka document mo sa first post. Gandang reference nito pag tuloy tuloy.:)

Kuha ka ng kumot, talukbungan mo yung harap ng tank para di ka mainip. :lol:

Seriously gaya ng advice namin sa mga nagsisimula, wag mong madaliin yan bro. Di naman karera hobby natin hehe. And there's more to your system than just the nitrogen cycle.

Habang nagaantay ka, magtabi ka na para sa mga kakailanganin mo- equipment, salt, media. Kung ako rin gagawa na ako ng QT para sa balak mong ilagay na isda. :)
Cheers,
Marty

Kahit nga orocan o malaking balde okay na. Mahalaga meron. Tsaka wag ka magsabay sabay ng lagay ng isda para mas matagal mo silang ma-quarantine at hindi rin mabigla yung system. :)

Marty

Alin? Mag PAR38 ka na lang kay aquariatech, tapos bilhan mo ng gooseneck. :) wag na kayo bibili sa raon, sobrang sirain na daw ng mga bagong batch. Sayang pera.

Marty

Ah yung kay Dex. Yup PAR38 yan with gooseneck (yung mismong kabitan ng ilaw)
Kay aquariatech nabili yan. :)

PS no need to call me sir, hehe. Di pa ako nagawaran ng knighthood eh. :lol:

Bro, halos pareho tayo tank. Personal opinion ko lang to pero if you can find a way na i mount sa ceiling or sa wall yung lights the better. Avod the goosneck, kasi di resistant yan sa saltwater corrosion. Mas ok pa tgnan sa tank.

Based sa posts mo may leds ka na ah. Kung bibili ka pa ng bago pwede po magamit yung luma sa frag tank or sa sump for macroalgae.

Specific Gravity (SG) = 1.024 @ 29.5 ºC

Exposed gradually to ambient light (not direct sunlight) from the windows and LED lights for few hours everyday.

pH = 8.2
Ammonia (NH3) = 0.00 ppm
Nitrite (NO2) = 0.00 ppm
Nitrate (NO3) = 10.0 - 5.0 ppm

Image

After this, kung stable na po ang parameters, need ko na bang mag WC? Then kapag nagtest ulit ako and kapareho parin ay pwede nang maglagay ng Clean Up Crews (CUC)? Anong marerecomend nyo mga masters?

Also found a "shrimp" po nagtatago sa liverocks ko. I don't know saan galing pero siguro nung binili ko sya. Di ko kasi masyadong nalinis ng maigi yung rocks.

Di ko sya makunan sa cam kasi laging nasa ilalim at nagtatago. The problem is parang di sya yung normal na shrimp kasi nung sinisilip ko syang naglalakad, madami syang paa. Mantis Shrimp ata ito. Reference image po lang ito pero siguro ganito sya but lighter/desaturated yung color nya...

Image


Nabasa ko na notorious daw sya sa LS. If true, need ko syang tanggalin. TIA!

This morning nakita ko ulit yung Mantis Shrimp. According sa mga research ko sa net ay very aggressive daw ito sa mga LS sa aquarium namely sa mga inverts (snails, etc) pati narin sa shrimps and isda (depende sa laki ng Mantis Shrimp) at kinakain nila ang mga ito. Kaya nung makita ko sya dun sa pinasukan nyang LR ay kinuha ko ito agad. Sa net I had read 3 options na available kong gawin.

1st option - Leave the rock sa isang lugar without the water (in my case sa isang palangana) but it didn't worked.

2nd option - Cold RO water-dipping kaso di effective. Di man lang sya natinag para lumabas. Tinaggalan ko kaso wa-epek. May nabasa rin ako na sabi they can stand extensive heat and cold temperatures.

3rd option - Smashing/Hammering the rock itself and yes I saw him. Sa kaloob-looban sya nagtatago. Di ko intensyon patayin sya, just want to get rid of him in the aquarium lang kaso tinamaan or nadag-anan ata sya ng rock na nabasag and the result was natamaan yung claws nya. Nilagay ko sya sa isang maliit na clear glass with salt-water baka mabuhay pa and luckily ay gumagalaw sya pero hirap na hirap sya. Feeling ko tuloy he'll not survive but sana paguwi ko mamaya okay pa sya and will recover. :(

Anyways here he is.

Specific Gravity (SG) = 1.024 @ 28.9 ºC

pH = 8.0
Ammonia (NH3) = 0.25 - 0.00 ppm
Nitrite (NO2) = 0.25 - 0.00 ppm
Nitrate (NO3) = 20.0 ppm

I think naapektuhan yung parameters ko dahil sa liverock na nadurog sa pagkakammer ko para alisin yung Mantis Shrimp sa aquarium. I guess I will need to WC na next week to correct these parameters.
