Hello! Sayang, don't waterchange muna while tank is cycling. Let the bacteria flourish.

Specific Gravity (SG) = 1.025 @ 29 ºC

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

Eto for sure mapapagsabihan ako ng mga RP peeps. :(

Dahil nga akala ko na okay na yung water parameters ko, I bought my first Livestocks. I bought 3 snails, I think Astrea Snails (para syang bato). 2 Nemos, 1 Cleaner Shrimp, and 1 Lawnmower Blenny. Here's the sad thing, during acclimation (Drip Method) namatay na agad yung cleaner shrimp then overnight when I got up this morning namatay narin yung 2 Nemos. :(

Image

I guess charge to experience nalang ito para di maulit. Ang malungkot lang ay namatay sila, kawawa naman. Sorry it's my fault. Sa sobrang excited ko na may gumagalaw na sa tank ko, ayun sa pagmamadali namatay sila.

So ibig sabihin nito di pa talaga ako maglagay ng LS? May namatay sa LS ko, ibig sabihin need ko rin bang magWC na para macorrect yung parameters ko although sa tests ko yesterday ay okay naman sya?

Thank very much sa mga tutulong...

Specific Gravity (SG) = 1.025 @ 29.5 ºC

pH = 8.2
Ammonia (NH3) = 0.00 ppm
Nitrite (NO2) = 0.00 ppm
Nitrate (NO3) = 20.0 ppm

Did water change yesterday. Sa ngayon, 2 snails nalang ang natira sa binili kong LS last time. I think okay na yung water kasi nabuhay sila.

with your parameters, dapat ok na sila.. Saan mo nabili yung fishes? things to consider before buying. first, quality of the livestock.. tingnan mo kung may sugat, breathing normal, acting normal, kung pwede din eating.. ikaw yung pumili at wag yung lfs.. pero madalas pag sa carti hit or miss talaga.. how did you do your drip method? baka naman sobrang tagal, sobrang konte at naubusan ng oxygen yung nilalagyan nila.. isipin mo, 3 fishes dun sa maliit na tabo.. ano ulit saltmix mo?

I think walang mali sa tank mo. Sa fish yung may problema. sa cartimar madalas 1 out of 10 or 2 of 10 ang fish na mabubuhay sa binili mo. if magaling ka pumili siguro aabot ng mga 4-6 fish out of 10 pero bihira yun dahil mismong fishes na nasa carti ay may sakit na, stress sobra, hilo at gulpi na. pag bibili ka next time sa carti try mo bilhin yung nang aaway na isda. so kunyari nemo gusto mo, hanapin mo yung matapang wag yung ginugulpi. higher chance of survival dahil pag hilo,stress at may sakit, hindi na sila matapang. pag matapang meaning condition pa siya compare sa ibang fish.

regarding drip, i think doing 2-4 drops per second is the best at make the drop at the middle of the water wag yung sa side lang. for me kasi mas mabilis mag halo pag sa gitna rather than sa side.

1. half the water inside the plastic bag, drip (2-4 drops per second) until water reaches the original water level.
2. repeat it 2 times bago mo lipat fish. don't include water from carti. fish lang dahil madumi tubig nila.

make sure rin na pag nilagay mo fish mo sa DT mo ay walang gugulpi dahil pag may gumulpi, 80-90% it will die dahil sa kagat at stress na matatangap nya lalo na pag ayaw siyang tigilan ng gumugulpi sa kanya.

May I ask, tingin mo ilang % ng original water (water from carti/plastic bag) ang nasa tabo mo nung minove mo yung LS sa tank mo?

IF it were me, acclimation method ko is, waterchange 1/4, 1/3, 1/2. 10 minutes in between each.

also, acclimation dapat isa isa, pag sinasabay yung lahat ng plastic bag water, pwede isa dun mataas na ammonia tapos damay yung ibang hinaluan. so seperate bags lang then acclimate.

Specific Gravity (SG) = 1.023 @ 28 ºC - 29 ºC
pH = 8.2 - 8.0
Ammonia (NH3) = 0.00 ppm
Nitrite (NO2) = 0.00 ppm
Nitrate (NO3) = 20.0 ppm

So far I think stable na yung system and luckily may mga nabuhay na isda sa mga nabili ko (cartimar). Sya lang kasi ang pinakamalapit na pwede kong bilhan. I used the drip method for acclimation (more than an hour because I need to neutralize the salinity kasi galing sila sa mababang salinity).

Livestocks (as of 10-24-2014)
1 Yellow Tail Damsel
2 Tomato Clownfish
1 Lawnmower Blenny
1 Orange Starfish
3 Crown Snails
3 Turban Snails

Twice a day of (little) feeding. I guess I need to up my salinity para mag-ready na for corals. :D

Salamat sa lahat ng tumulong.

ano yung crown snail? matapang yang yellowtail damsel.. ingat na lang.. mahirap na maglagay ng isda.. also, monitor mo pa din sila.. malaki na chance niyan mabuhay pero minsan pag galing carti, namamatay after a week or so.. kasi cyanide nga ata.. malakas na kumain, ok na.. sabay patay..

Long time no update. I'm still alive!!! :)

Bale sa mga LS kong nabili na cartimar, unfortunately kaunti na natira. Nagkaroon pa ako ng ammonia spike kaya ayun medyo nahirapan akong iahon sa hirap ang aking mga alaga.

Right now sila nalang natira. I hope I can add more next time kapag hindi na busy.

Napansin ko rin na parang nagtatago yung bubble coral ko kapag yung 16 watts na LED na ilaw gamit ko but when I use the 7 watts na CFL light ay okay naman siya. Then yung gonio ko ay almost 2 weeks nang hindi pa namumukadkad but pakonti-konti lumalabas na siya.

Hope I can post on Members' Tank soon kaso not yet ready.hahaha

Thank you. :D
