  1. Deltec ap902 specs For Aquariums up to: Heavy Stocking 1800 Ltrs (400 gals) Normal Stocking 2500 Ltrs (550 gals) Water Throughput: 3000 Ltr./ h (667 gall/h) 5000L is too much flow, i dont think the skimmer could take that much anyway. slower the water going into the skimmer then you get better skimming, However too slow then you tank does not get skimmed as much. A skimmer should turn over the tank volume at least once per hour
  2. How does rowa assist it?? Looks like it is recovering from being bleached. They do better in medium light. I have burnt so many by putting them high up.
  3. Could be anything. just keep a eye on it, no need to panic.
  4. Its only got 3 x 150w metal halides and 6 t5, Tank gets sunlight most of the time.
  5. The monti was about 5cm when it was put in, now it is huge.
  6. very hard to take a pics as he is so fast.
  7. All corals were small and have grown over the last 6 months. 15 banner fish would be nice and a few morish idols. the yellow tang is about 3 inch so the montis much be over 12 inch in size,
  8. After weeks of fatting up the Morish idol he finally went to his new home. All is well so far after being attacked by the flame angel for a few hours,
  9. Here are some updated pics from butterfly creek. Tank is looking real good and is worth the a visit. If you look at the photos in Dec 04 you can see that things have really grown. Tank is covered in coralline algae and all the fish are nice and fat.
  10. I Have seen them east frozen brine shrimp. chopped mussels, live shrimps from the beach. They do eat fish that are smaller, so beware. very nice fish,
  11. post it in the private sale section
  12. Just upgrade to 400w lights and my coral at the bottom of the tank have never looked better.
  13. Regal angels are shy; they generally live under the rock work or near the bottom of the tank.
  14. it is harmful so remove it as they kill clams,

    Acid Sea

    It is typical of humans to destroy everything. give it few years and there wont be much left. Progress these days means destruction for animals. Maybe we should ban the imports of coral and fish as most of it dies in tanks anyway.

    Reefs Reef Tank

    i quess we could look at all your goniporas and cataphyllias and see how they look compared to a tank using reef solution to see which are in better shape. I doubt it has calcium in it. The only detail they have is listed on this web site http://www.ecosystemaquarium.com/html/reef.html
