Hi mga sirs,

newbie lang po and planning on transition from FW to SW. Ung DT ko is 60Gallons and sump is around 20gals. as of now, gumagawa ako ng algae scrubber and skimmer, all diy. hehe.

mejo kakajoin ko lang dito sa Rphil so mejo mahirap pa magbackread.

Since on a tight budget, ok lang ba ung blue bag na nasa carti for cycling? Un kasi nabili ko last week, kaso I heard na di daw maganda so, confirming lang po.

And san po maganda bumili ng sand and live rocks sa carti? Dun lang kasi pinakamalapit kong location eh, plus un nga, tight budget. hehe.

TIA

one more thing, pwede ba ung tap water na naiimbak ko for weeks para sa saltmix? May drum kasi ako na may water para sa mga FW fishes ko, and plan ko sana un gamitin.

yup! minimum ang Blue treasure. bawal tap water bro. buy filtered water or kung may RO/DI ka or kht RO pwede na yun. for the sand, kahit anong sand basta linisin mo mabuti bago mo gamitin.

Hangga't maaga, start ka na lang sa Blue Treasure bro... yang blue bag kasi para ka lang gumamit ng asin sa palengke eh. Dami na rin naka-experience na hindi makabuhay ng isda dahil blue bag lang ang ginamit. Sa ngayon, bili ka neto:

1. Hydrometer or Refractometer
2. Sand
3. Liverock
4. Better Saltmix

Sa Carti, hanapin mo yung place ni Rap. Punta ka sa plants section, then take the entrance into Aqualand from there. Unang saltwater shop na makikita mo dun. Palatandaan, may mga mangroves sya binibenta. Yung dry sand ang bilhin mo para sulit sa timbang. Ang alam ko meron din sya liverocks so tanungin mo na lang din.

Sa dry sand, hugasan mo mabuti sa freshwater hanggang luminaw yung tubig. Para kang naghuhugas ng bigas nun, then to be sure, babad mo muna for a couple of days bago mo ilagay sa tank.

update mga sirs!

Wala ako makita nung blue treasure, pero nakabili ako ng Red Sea, ok na to mga sirs? Then nakabili na rin ako 20 kilos na live rocks and 40 kilos na sand.

Thanks sir roland_0313 for the tip about sa sand. Pero about po sa live rocks, mejo hindi sila "a-live" hehe. though may mga creatures ung iba. babad lang ba sila sir sa water? or pwede ibrush?

thanks

alisin mo lang yung dead/dying crap na naka-attach sa rocks, pati mga algae na kasama. rinse then cycle mo na. No need to add anything else,

red sea is somehow fine. you may try inatant ocean or reefcrystals next time. :) relatively cheap rin.
Cheers,
Marty

Up lang mga sir.

Nagstart na ako magcycle ng tank with sump. Question po about sa filtration, ano po magandang ilagay sa sump ko na 3 layers/divison? Bale ung sump kasi, 1st level is for overflow, 2nd is sand, 3rd is para sa return pump. Basically, mejo hubad na sump cya since kakastart ko lang magcycle. thanks po sa mga sasagot :D

Hi mga sirs,

2 weeks na running ung cycling ng tank ko. Naglagay nako ng chaeto and mangrove sa sump and also may DSB ako. May nasetup na rin akong skimmer pero not yet running. Since sa province ang setup ko, weekends ko lang cya nabibisita. Now, ang problem ko, nagka-algae bloom siguro dahil ng blue light. And since mejo busy ako, di pako nakakabili ng water testers (yeah, I know, dapat meron nako by this time). Pinatay ko muna ilaw sa DT. Ano po kaya pwede gawin and mga next steps?

TIA
