thanks  :-) ! Actually, normal light lang yan, nilalagyan ko lang ng methylene blue na solution dun sa tubig to make the "blue water" effect. Helps to keep the fishes skin(scales) healthy and makes the water fresher also.

pansin ko nga sa ibang live plants sir, nakakadumi. ero etong nilalagay ko ok sila, di pa madali masira kahit nginangasab ng mga isda.

sir yung tungkol sa methylene blue, ok lang ba kahit madami ilagay para magkulay blue talaga tubig? konti lang kasi nilalagay ko, pang maintenance lang. thanks...

ano tawag dyan sa plant mo bro? makabili nga pagdaan ko ng cartimar. yung sa methylene blue, tantyahin mo na lang yung lagay nya, wag masyadong dark blue yung kulay baka malason yung mga isda, you can do it everyday naman eh kung pansin mo na nagfafade na yung kulay ng tubig.

Too much methylene blue or any dye can damage the kidneys of the fish, since they have to secrete them continuously. always follow the directions in the bottle, and only use it when needed. BTW, sino dito nag petshop? I used to have one when I was still single.

Wow! list naman ng hardware mo. Do you also use a sump system?

On my last LRWF tank,. I only used two powerheads and a skimmer.

Meron lang ako pump, sub-tank yung nasa likod ng main tank ko..
Bali andun na filtration nya.
Di na ko gumagamit ng skimmer, matured na tank ko.. pump lang, ok na.. :-)
Much better na maghintay ng panahon para mag-mature yung tank, before lagyan ng fish.

Madaming pets sa cartimar.
Piliin nyo lang ang bibilhin nyo, yung kumpleto fins, walang sugat, damage, etc..
And most of all, dapat yung kumakaen na, kasi pag hindi pa kumakaen, stress pa yun, or posible baka my sakit..

sir pwede ba makahingi ng details sa ganitong setup? thanks...
Sure sir!
Madaming dapat i-prepare sa marine water tank..
Magastos sa una, kasi dpa mature yung sea water..
you'll be needing

hydrometer- pantest ng salinity ng water(alat ng tubig)
tank with sub-tank- aquarium with sub aquarium for filtration
(mas malaking aquarium, mas ok!)
clean sea water
live rocks, live sands, crushed corals
protein skimmer
motor pump, pede na yung pump ng overhead filter ng sa fresh water
(depende kung ilan gallons yung tank mo)
amonia test kit

marami pang ibang mga gadgets, mga test kits, pero yan lang muna sa una, pede na..

BTW, fish only tank lang ba setup mo or plan mo may live rocks and corals? A chiller and actinic lighting will also be needed, along with trace elements (whew).

Kaya sa last marine days ko, puro damsel nalang inalagaan ko, lols.

hehe.. pero alam nyo sir, matapang ang damsel?! teritorial sila..
FOWL lang tank ko, mahal kasi yung chiller.. yung light, kaya ko pa, pero yung chiller, AW!

ginawa ko din yung madaming air blower sa sump, effective din naman mag cool ng a few degrees.
matapang ang damsel, pero sa 25 gal tank there's lots of running space for everyone. yung aircon tech namin kayang gumawa ng chiller, mura lang daw.

Nice topic.

Ako naman, nag alaga ng mga Arowana over the years, pero namatay nang lahat. Naka 4-5 yata ako - Silver, Australian, at kahit Malaysian Golden. Madami dami na din akong tropical fish na naalagaan (Clown at Ghost Knife, Pacu, Snakeheads, Oscars, etc) Mahilig ako sa mga isdang malalaki at carnivorous haha.
Ang natira ko nalang na isda now ay Gar - mga halos 2 feet long na sya ngayon. Pero ang hirap nang bumili ng feeder fish sa QC area ngayon, wala na yung dati kong bilihan ng cataba. May alam ba kayong mabibilihan sa QC/SM north area? Marami din dati sa may Collegio de San Lorenzo kaso mahal ang feeder fish dun e.

isa to sa mga hobby ng tatay ko na nahiligan ko din, kasama yung isa kong kalaro (now a priest) at padamihan kami ng alam na pangalan ng isda with matching scientific names :)

tatlo yung tanks namin, isa for a pair of red oscars, yung isa para sa mga loaches/eels/barbs etc., yung isa eh para sa mga nahuhuli ko sa mga ilog at canal hehehe. sayang nga lang nung nasunugan kami kasama yung mga aquariums :-(

ngayon yung 3 year old daughter ko nagpatuloy ng fish hobby naming magtatay :)

mag kano ba mag set up ng saltwater aquarium? nag inquire kami sa fish depot 1k daw per gallon fair price naba yun? saka kasama na kaya dun yung mga filter etc. na mga gagamitin. salt tester etc. di muna namin tinuloy yung pag inquire parang hassle kasi and 1st time lang namin mag saltwater sana and ang ending nag dagdag aso nalang kami (shih tzu, and yorkshire terrier soon)

sayang kasi yung aquarium dito nung dati naming arwana nakatambak lang. btw. almost 12years old na yung arwana namin nung namatay bata pa ko nun  :-D binibili sya samin 15k pero di namin binenta. ayun namatay sya nabulunan sa buong galunggong :( kumakain sya ng buong sisiw na buhay, pugo na malaki or maliit buhay nakakain nya ng buo pati mga dagang costa :lol: dun lang talaga sya sa galunggong nadali eh actually kaya nya naman. tagal nya na kumakain ng buong galunggong 1 time lang talaga nabulunan sya kaya namatay  :cry:

and mag kano ba mga presyuhan nung mga saltwater fish? (clownfish or yung mga cast sa finding nemo yung makukulay)

very important, LED gamit ko. isang cause din ng plant melting baka mainit yung temp mo. kapag hindi aircon yung place, lagyan mo ng fan or blower. kapag direct sunlight kasi mainit sobra at prone sa algae.

(http://i44.tinypic.com/2wrnb48.jpg)

(http://i40.tinypic.com/ngq23k.jpg)

plano kong lagyan ng corals pero di ko pa perfect saltwater bago palang ako kaya inaaral ko muna kaya FOWLR palang yan

livestock:

niger trigger
domino damselfish
one spot foxface rabbitfish
2 pajama cardinal
2 blue tail damselfish
nemo (ocellaris fish)
chocolate chip starfish
anemone hermit crab
some nassarius snail


FRESHWATER TANK

(http://i40.tinypic.com/29kzac2.jpg)

namatay yung mga alaga ko kanina sa freshwater :(

22" silver arowana
8" silver tinfoil
7" hornet cichlid
5" blood parrot
5" convict cichlid

mahihina na yung mga nabili kong kataba na pag kain nila saka sa aircon ng kotse na temperature shock ata kaya pag lagay sa tank namatay pag gising ko kaninang umaga patay na sila. ammonia spike dahil sa mga patay na kataba tapos yung ibang patay na kataba bumara sa motor ng oxygen pump kaya di gumana yung pahangin kaya nawalan din sila ng oxygen


(http://i43.tinypic.com/24fxu0l.jpg)

ito yung survivor sa freshwater tank ko. inabutan ko nag hihingalo buti naagapan at medyo nakarecover na

7" oscar
14" knife fish
5" parrot cichlid
12" pacu
6" hammerhead
2" red jewel cichlid

then ito yung freshwater tank ko. dating monster tank napost ko nga dito na nadisaster mga monster fish ko namatay pati malaki kong arowana then binenta ko yung mga naka survive.

ginawa ko nalang planted tank tapos mga fish yung maliliit lang na halo halo

magkano yun bright light na yan bossing?

alin bro yung nasa saltwater or sa freshwater?

sa freshwater 350php lang ata yun matagal na yan eh

yung nasa saltwater 4k bili ko 2nd hand lang yun binili ko dun sa co reefers ko na malapit samin. DIY 10w multichip LED yung 3 tapos yung dalawang bulb e27

mahal pala yun sa salt water tsk.. kaya pala maganda hindi lang tulad dun sa mga nabibiling led sa mga hardware... anyway kapag obsessed ka talaga ng husto dito parang GAS lang

saka magkano yun filter mo bossing? napansin ko wala kang overhead tank, bale nag rerefill ka na lang ng filter dun sa pump? di kaya mas magastos

saka magkano yun filter mo bossing? napansin ko wala kang overhead tank, bale nag rerefill ka na lang ng filter dun sa pump? di kaya mas magastos

medyo may kamahalan talaga bro compare sa freshwater..

anong overhead tank? yung tulad sa freshwater na overhead filter sa taas tapos may foam? wala bro sa saltwater di mo na need yun saka di muna need ng pahangin dito yung surface agitation nalang ng tubig yun na yung pahangin nila

bali ang basic filter mo dito yung mismong bato, buhangin yung mga bacteria na nakatira dun.
saka may clean up crew na tinatawag inverts like snail, crab, starfish etc. na kumakain ng dumi, lumot so sila na rin talaga linis mo

bali may aquarium pa to sa ilalim dun nakalagay yung ibang mga pang filter na iba like protein skimmer (1.5k kasama na pump), macroalgae (yung mga halaman sa gitna), activated carbon (parang uling lang din same sa freshwater) (100php), gfo (300php), tapos may filter socks

(http://i58.tinypic.com/2d2ajjp.jpg)

(http://i58.tinypic.com/34zcdcg.jpg)

medyo maliit nga lang tank sa ilalim kunti lang tuloy malagay na equipment hindi tuloy makapag upgrade. palitan ko pa sya inaayos ko pa to
(http://i61.tinypic.com/8xmtky.jpg)

bali nag cicirculate yung tubig sa main tank at sump (yung aquarium sa ilalim)

oo bro yun nga yun may foam...

salamat sa insights, di ko pa natry mag shift sa salt water.. mas maganda nga siguro sa salt water di mo kelangan agad mag refill every month

saka parang yun tank ko pang display na lang ikumpara sa volume halos lutang na yun mga bato at halaman kesa sa isda  :-D

saka parang yun tank ko pang display na lang ikumpara sa volume halos lutang na yun mga bato at halaman kesa sa isda  :-D

actually halos every day mag rerefill ka dito mabilis kasi mag evaporate yung saltwater eh. siguro every day 1g yung nauubos kaka evaporate sakin kelangan mo refill ng freshwater agad yun, kung hindi tataas yung salinity ng tubig..

actually mas maraming sand and rocks mas maganda yun kasi yung filter mo para iwas crash yung buong tank. kaya ko rin lalakihan yung aquarium sa ilalim balak ko dun itambak yung karamihan ng bato sa main tank para kunti nalang nasa taas.. and pag reef tank kadalasan talaga kunti lang yung isda. sensitive kasi yung corals sa pag fluctuate ng water parameter. kunting isda = kunting bioload so hindi agad dudumi yung tubig mo less maintenance..

Post by: Shred_22 on March 27, 2014, 01:49:56 PM
sa mga gustong mag saltwater basahin nyo to ito yung naging guide ko nung nag start ako  :)




there are 3 types of marine aquariums that you need to chose from and base

your setup from.

1. Fish only setup
this setup as the name implies will just need fish. You don't need to fuzz about liverocks and get worried about nitrates and lights.

2. Fish only with liverocks(FOWLR) setup
this setup uses Liverocks and fish. This setup is more ideal than the fish only setup since liverocks can be beneficial to your fish and system. Not only does liverocks help in maintaining your system it also serves as a home for your fishes when agression between fishes ensues. also this is a great setup if you want ti venture into reefkeeping in the future since it already has the components for a basic reef.

3.Reef setup
The ultimate setup in marine aquarium. If you wish to keep corals then this system is for you. You'll need a bigger budget here and a lot of patience as this systems requires a lot. From lights to additives to chillers for your system to maintain ideal water parameters. But once you are successful with this system your tank will be absolutely gorgeous!

Here are the things you will need to setup a basic marine tank:

1. Aquarium and stand
The principle here is the bigger the better! It'll be easier to maintain a bigger tank because water parameters will not fluctuate easily unlike in small aquariums where you always check the stability of your tank. I'd say around 50 gallons is the minimum. Others get away with just 35 gallons but you'll stock it with much less fish.

also another thing you need to keep in mind is your budget when it comes to bigger aquariums. With bigger aquariums comes bigger expenses due to the fact that you will need stronger pumps to circulate the water volume you have, bigger and powerful skimmers, also powerful lighting and a bit more dosing. Also with all those equipments comes your monthly electric bill which will shoot up depending on the wattages of your equipment in the tank. I was surprised before when my electric bill shot up to almost 5k because of the equipments i had in my tank. good thing today is that there are pumps and other lighting alternatives that require low wattage but high gph/lph output.

You will also need a stand that will be able to handle your aquarium when it is fully stocked with rocks sand and water. be sure to pick a stand that can support the weight of your system. remember water is heavy especially when rocks and sand are added to it.

2. Live rocks
Liverocks will serve as home for your fish as well as "filter" for your system. They will be home to beneficial bacteria and beneficial organisms. The rule i used to calculate how many liverocks i need is 1.5 pounds per gallon of your system. So if you have a 50 gallon system you'll need 75 pounds of liverocks. To get the number of killos simply divide it by 2.2. so for a 50 gallon system you'll need 34 kilos of liverocks.

here is the formula again :
number of gallons of your system x 1.5(to get the number of pounds needed) / 2.2(to get the number of kilos) = number of kilos needed for your system

3. Sand
It's your choice if you want to put sand or not. pero it adds beauty to your setup and plus it becomes home to critters and worms that comes with your liverocks which in time will have detrivores that will eat uneaten foods. it also serves as a nitrate reducer in time.

for my setup i used 4 inches of sand so that it will have natural nitrate
reduction. It's up to you if you want to put as much sand as i have done. So the question here is how do i determine the number of kilos for a specific thickness in inches for my system? here is the formula i used :

Length of the aquarium x width of the aquarium x the desired thickness of sand in inches / 20 = number of pounds of sand to get desired thickness

to get it in kilos:
answer to the previous formula /2.2 = number of kilos of sand needed to get the desired thickness

the vinegar test:
this test is used on sand to know whether they are suitable for your tank or not. here are the steps:
a. bring a small film container with vinegar when you are about to buy sand for your marine aquarium.

b. once you are at the place where you will buy your sand, place a small amount of sand on the fil container with vinegar. if the sand you put there bubbles up that means it's ok for your aquarium.

when the sand bubbles up on vinegar that means it will buffer your aquarium since it contains calcium carbonate.

4. saltmix
This is up to you as to what brand of saltwater mix you prefer. Me i use biomix from bioresearch. it's cheap around 120 pesos compared to the ones being sold in cartimar the marina mix which costs around 175 pesos.

Most users here prefer natural saltwater since it is cheaper alternative to local saltmixes plus it can easily make reef creatures thrive as it is already a balanced mix.

Although imported brands like sera, corallife and tropic marin can also make reef creatures thrive(these brands are also available here).

5. Ro/di water or deep well water or tap water
For those who have high budgets the ideal water to be used in mixing with your saltwater mix is RO/DI water or reverse osmosis water. they can be bought on water stations or you can make it yourselfs jsut buy the ro di filter.

me i use deep well water. because it's a lot cheaper and that's waht my budget permits. nawasa water needs to be stocked for 3 days to remove chlorine that is put in it by putting a powerhead to aerate it.

5, Hydrometer
hydrometers are used to measure specific gravity of the mixed water. hydrometers have these green markings that indicate correct SG.

To use the hydrometer, simply put it in your water and look if the water level is on the green marker. if it is, it's ok for use. if the green marker on the hydrometer is above water level just add ro di water to dilute the mix. if the green marker is below the water level you have to add saltmix to raise the specific gravity.

6.Powerheads/pumps
Powerheads are used for circulation of water on your marine tank. it is important to have circulation so that detritus and uneaten food doesn't stay on the bottom or get trapped on yur rocks instead they will be picked up by your protein skimmer.

they can also be used as return pumps for your sump.

try to get a powerhead that has a high liters per hour or gallon per hour rating.

7. Protein skimmer
Protein skimmers export the dirt and waste on your aquarium by use of bubbles. I use a venturi type skimmer. this type of skimmer utilizes a powerhead to deliver water on it's column. get a skimmer that is rated at two times or three times your system volume. Be sure to pair it with a powerhead that has a high head rating and volume

8. Test kits
this are important so that you will be able to determine if your water parameters are ok or not.

test kits you need are ammonia nitrate and ph. buy tetra test kits as they are more accurate.

when you test your water the results should be the following:
ammonia = 0
nitrates = for fish only it's ok to have 20mg or less but strive for 10mg or less
ph = should be 8 to 8.5


Steps
1. put water in your aquarium as well as your saltmix. then put your powerhead to aerate water. let the powerhead mix the water for 2 to 3 days.

2. after the second or third day. use your hydrometer to measure the specific gravity. if the water level is on the grren mark. you can now add liverocks and sand. if the water level is above the green mark you need to add more freshwater because there is more salt on the water mixed. if the water level is below the green mark, you must add more saltmix because there is not enough salt mixed with the water.

3. buy your liverocks and sand according to the computations given earlier. i buy my liverocks from mang jun at the back of cartimar. he has the best liverocks. his liverocks contain a lot of hitchhickers taht include worms and other stuff you want in your aquarium. i use a sugar fine sand for natural nitrate reduction. use coral sand. don't use silicate sand because it'll promote algae growth.

4. put your liverocks first on the aquarium. aquascape your tank now. make sure that you when you stack your liverocks they are firmly placed and not loose as they will fall if not put correctly and could cause aquarium breakage.

The reason for putting liverocks before sand first is to make the base rock secure so that if the sand gets thin your base rock won't move and the upper rocks won't fall down.

5. after putting your liverocks it's time for the sand. Before putting the sand, check the bottom of the aquarium and see if there dirt and dead organisms. If you spot those siphon them out because if you put the sand over those it will cause problems later for your setup since they will contribute more nitrates and hydrogen sulfide gases. ONce all the decaying organisms are siphoned out, put the sand in your aquarium.

6. turn on your powerheads to promote circulation on your tank. this is also the time to put your protein skimmer into action so that wastes will be removed from the die off of organisms on your liverocks.

7. your tank is now ready for cycling. Don't put anything on your tank at this stage. don't put any fish or cut shrimps to promote bacteria growth. the die off on the rocks is enough for that.

8. Let your tank cycle for 6 to 8 weeks. then test water for ammonia and

nitrates.if ammonia is 0 and nitrates is less than 20mg execute a 20% water change(use aged saltwater that has been mixed for three days and has the same SG as your previous water)

After all that hardwork and patience you can now put fish. Remember don't overstock your system! put a new fish every month so that your system can adjust. '

ganun.. an tyaga niyo dito grabe.. may pang testing kayo ng PH para malaman yun salinity kung enough na sa mga salt fish? pano yun ratio ng salt at fresh water.. hay senxa na dami ko tanong hehe di ko pa na try sa salt water e

actually dapat ang fish ang kukuha ng attention sa fish tank hindi yun mga pebbles, plants, pero nung namatay yun arowana ko balik na lang sa maliit na isda.. tama kayo the more na maraming isda mas maraming pang dumi sa tangke...

ano mahusay na janitor fish sa tubig tabang sir?

dami tinetest dito bro haha

ito lahat ng pang test ko
(http://i59.tinypic.com/2lmui4x.jpg)

ammonia,nitrite,nitrates, PH, calcium, carbonate hardness, phosphate, salinity, temperature

tapos meron pang magnesium saka TDS meter pero wala ko nyang dalawa na yan.

yung pang test ng salinity yung nasa right side lalagyan mo lang ng tubig from tank then baba mo sa sahig then may needle arrow yun kung san nakaturo yun. yun yung salinity ng water mo.

pag FOWLR set up or meaning fish lang kahit 1.019 - 1.022 yung salinity pero reef set up pag may corals, clam etc. 1.025 - 1.028 para mabuhay

may salt mix na nabibili hahalo mo lang sa mineral water usually 7kg good for 50g pero depende kung anong salinity nung titimplahin mo.

yung salt mix iba yun di pwede yung rock salt na asin sa bahay etc. saka yung tubig dapat mineral, kung nawasa or what di ka makakabuhay or mag kaka problema kalang in the near future

meron din naman sea water na nabibili kaso hassle ibyahe eh. minsan matabang pa so need mo pa dagdagan saltmix minsan naman madumi




regarding dun sa freshwater janitor fish. pleco bro ganito itsura nya

Hey guys up ko lang to  :wave:

My newly set up 15g FW planted tank

I also have almost 1year old Fish only 75g Saltwater tank but I'm planning to revert it back to FW Monster tank again pero planning palang I still dunno kung what fish yung ilalagay ko.

btw never get the package set up na inaalok sa cartimar ah disaster yun if ever haha puro salestalk lang dun sa carti and most of the saltwater fish there may sakit or alanganin. sa exporter kami directly bumibili.. mga reject na kasi yung nasa cartimar.. yung fisherman dadalin sa exporter yung isda tapos yung exporter ibebenta sa abroad. so pipilian ng exporter yung dala ng fisherman or diver tapos yung matira yun ang ibebenta sa cartimar sa mababang presyo ng diver kesa itapon.

parang wala ata yep bro pwede na isda lang walang corals.. FOWLR set up tawag dun or Fish Only With Live Rock.. actually mas madali maintain yun saka mas tolerant naman sila sa dumi at flow unlike pag may corals may requirement talaga.
yung kung gano kadalas naman mag waterchange depende sa size ng tank mo, sa dami ng isda mo, sa filtration mo etc. kung malaki tank mo hindi overstock tapos matinde mga equipment mo sa filtration syempre di kana ganon kadalas mag waterchange

ito list ng need mo if FOWLR ka lang

- tank (ilang gallon ba balak mo)
- stand
- live rock - 20php per kg
- sand - 20php per kg (wag ka gagamit ng pebbles or crush coral problema lang yun pag tagal ma trap kasi mga dumi dun.. fine sand or beach sand lang talaga. saka ibang organism bahay need ng sand)
- salt mix - 650php good for 50g na matitimpla. blue treasure brand yan na cheapest and mineral imix mo bawal nasawa madami kasing unknown chemical or elements sa nawasa. pede din naman natural sea water may nabibili nun 10php per gallon kaso minsan matabang yun so need mo parin mag dagdag ng kunting saltmix para masakto yung sukat ng alat
(http://i57.tinypic.com/13zy934.jpg)
- hydrometer - 260 php (ito yung pansukat ng alat ng tubig.. wag ka bibili nung floating na parang thermometer)
(http://i58.tinypic.com/eap1d3.jpg)
- test kit.. since fowlr ka kahit yung nitrate test kit at pH test kit nalang bilin mo wag kana bumili nung set. siguro 350php each pag solo not sure though. pero ganun din eh halos dikit na bilin mo yung saltwater test kit set. consist of ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, at pH test kit 900php isang set
(http://i60.tinypic.com/wck39k.jpg)

kung mag sump ka or subtank need mo pabutasan tank mo. 400php home service may kilala kami si mang ramon. tapos another tank, tapos return pump.
ito yung sump. tank sa ilalim ng main tank mo haha
(http://i60.tinypic.com/2i8vzom.jpg)
ang benefits lang naman ng sump ito eh
- added water volume (para di madaling dumumi tank)
- lagayan ng filtration (skimmer, mga media like activated carbon, GFO etc.) kasi diba pangit naman kung sa main tank mo lalagay yan panira ng view ang kalat tignan
- refugium para lagayan ng mga macro algae, or bahay ng bacteria para di makain ng isda para maka pag spawn sila

protein skimmer (pedeng wala pero laking tulong pag meron.. ito yung nag lilinis din sa tank parang hinihigop nya na yung mga dumi bago pa kumalat sa tubig)

itong ngang aquarium ko minsan ko na lang malinisan  :-( :-(

malaki ba talaga effect ng sand at live rock sa component ng tubig para sa kanila? sa live rock ba ang nitrate? o sila ang neutralizer?
tuwing kelan ang backwashing ng live rock at sand? is it everyday?

tuwing kelan ang backwashing ng live rock at sand? is it everyday?

oo bro yung live rock at sand kasi serves as filtration din.. yung mga bacteria na nakatira sa sand at live rock ang neutralizer.. kasi pag dumumi yung isda pag kumain or un eaten food or pag may namatay at nadecay nagiging ammonia yun which is harmful and deadly sa lahat ng isda or livestock sa tank, pero yung mga bacteria kinoconvert nila agad yung ammonia to nitrite (which is slightly harmful parin) to nitrates (hindi na deadly pero ito yung sinusukat para malaman kung madumi na tank or kung need na mag waterchange)

hindi na need i wash yung liverock and sand. actually pag nilagay mo na sya sa tank much better na wala ng galawan kasi pag nagalaw mo for example yung sand tapos sobrang tagal na ng tank mo madami na syang pedeng irelease like sulfate etc. yung rocks naman pag nagalaw since madami ng detritus build up dyan baka biglang mag surge yung nitrates mo.

bali ang tank maintenance nalang na gagawin mo dito.. pakain ng isda, waterchange saka punas ng lumot sa glass.. yung mag test ng parameter minsan minsan para malaman mo kung need naba mag waterchange. actually pag kabisado mo na demand ng tank mo malalaman muna kung ilan at how often yung need mo na waterchange eh. for me mas madalang mag waterchange sa saltwater compare sa freshwater sa dami ng filtration na available sa saltwater. freshwater ko dati weekly or twice a week waterchange dun sa arowana ko sobrang cloudy na ng water.. pero sa saltwater ko once every 2months or 1month pero linis pa ng tubig kaso olats yung nitrates or may mali sa ibang parameter kaya ko nagwaterchange hindi dahil sa linaw ng tubig.

sa saltwater madaming kind ng cleaner eh..
yep snail, shrimp, starfish, crab (pero bihira kami mag lagay nito to since yung iba kumakain ng isda or other inverts)
or fish mismo may mga fish na kumakain ng algae or other pest.

hindi bro basta yung mga certain specie lang na reef safe. like cleaner shrimp good yan.. pero yung mantis shrimp patay isda mo dyan.
blue leg hermit crab good yan pero other kind ng crab usually not reef safe.

may specific temperature requirement kasi 26 degrees celsius to 29 degrees celsius sana pero pede din 30 degrees pero medyo critical na. 
pero kung wala namang corals di naman ganong sensitive yung isda sa temperature compare sa corals..

ok lang naka expose sa sunlight kaso pag expose sa sunlight mainit so tataas temperature ng tank mo, mataas evaporation rate so tataas din salinity pag nag eevaporate since water lang nag eevaporate hindi yung salt. saka ang pinaka cons mag kaka algae tank mo.. kung madumi tank mo like for example mataas nitrates at phosphate tapos may direct sunlight for sure algae bloom yan.

sorry late reply bihira na ko mag check ng thread sa PM.. depende yun bro sa aquascape na gusto mo. pangit kasi kung tatambakan mo ng bato.. although mas maraming bato = mas maraming biological filter.. pero madami din harang sa circulation ng flow.

re: about clownfish.
madali lang buhayin clownfish bro. just make sure na ok yung specimen na nakuha mo nasabi ko na ata to before yung mga isda na reject sa exporter sa carti binabagsak so medyo mahirap makahanap ng ok na fish sa carti usually may sakit or parasite, di healthy or what..

kung ok yung fish na nakuha mo naacclimate mo ba? ito bro check mo info. about acclimation

ano palang parameter ng tubig mo bro? salinity, nitrates? may ammonia or nitrite paba? pero kung 2months ng cycled tingen ko ok na dapat yan.. panong cycling ba ginawa mo?

nope bro.. nagiging malansa yung tubig pag di ganong nalilinis or pag madumi. try mo mag lagay ng activated carbon or uling sa filter para mawala yung lansa same principle ng pag lagay ng uling sa ref para mawala yung amoy.

regarding sand mas ok yung sand kesa crush coral or gravel kasi maiipon yung dumi ng isda sa gravel lulusot lang sa ilalim so mahirap na makuha. unlike sa sand yung poop ng isda nasa taas lang mismo ng sand.

    Question po uli.  Pag naglilinis ba kayo ng aquarium talaga bang bina baba nyo lahat. as in bubuhatin yung aquarium at sasabunan at babanlawan?

     Sa ngayon kasi pwde pa kasi medyo maliit lang yung aquarium ko, Eh may binigay sa amin na mas malaki na aquarium, yung tipong pang     
     Arowana na yung isda. Pwde ba na Yung Hose na lang na pang higop ang gamitin?? yung nabibili sa petshop?  TIA

depende sa size bro.. hindi mo na kelangan sabunan o banlawan.. kelangan mo lang ng suka (vinegar) at sponge

yan ang hirap naman sa malalaking tank.. magtatangal ka talaga ng mga bato o buhangin..kaya nirecommend ko sayo yun malalaking bato para madali tanggalin..

yun sa hose pwede naman na garden hose i siphon mo lang.. o kaya lagyan mo tubig yun hose then yun other end ilagay mo sa tank at sa baba naman yun isa matik na higop nun

naka private yung video bro :)

Anyway yung parameter seems perfect naman (Don't get me wrong dapat zero yung ammonia, pero issue lang talaga sa API test kit na kahit zero ammonia mo mukang .25ppm padin lumalabas di yellow na yellow)
yung tank mature enough na naman and sabi mo nga 2months na. halata naman kasi pag bago yan puti pa yung mga bato makinis pa. pag tapos kasi ng cycling usually nagiging brown yung rocks dahil sa diatoms or algae or what pero after a while lilinis ulit yan.

yung salinity pala anong reading? gano kaalat yung tubig? may pancheck kana ng salinity?

kung ok salinity, siguro acclimation issue nga or pangit yung nabili mong isda. Lately pumunta kami sa exporter sa gatchalian sayang kung gusto mo sanang sumama. dun talaga the best kumuha ng fish mas mura pa compare sa carti. or kung malapit ka sa muntinlupa sa RVS fishworld kaso mag heads up kapa dun bawal walk in ata

ito map guide sa gatchalian exporter sa las pinas if gusto mo pumunta. kung maiiwasan talaga wag ka sa carti bumili ng saltwater fish

katukin mo lang tanong ka kung pede bumili ng fish. di yan tindahan sa labas mukang mga usual na bahay lang yan pero pag pasok mo sa loob dun mo makita mga stocks nila.

@dharzfreeman bro pede makita close up picture nung main tank pati nung sump. check ko lang  :)

@Igor panong lilinisin? pag wala pang laman na isda? yep tama si dharz pede punasan mo ng vinegar para mawala yung mga parang stains or what. kahit di na sabon.

yung mga buhangin aalisin mo lahat yun banlawan mo. kasi madami ng naipon na dumi dyan kung galing yan sa dating may ari.


pero if you mean lilinisin yung tank pag may isda na. nope no need to remove everything bro including the fish.. siphon mo lang ng hose yung tubig tapos tutok mo dun sa may mga dumi ng isda sa buhangin para mahigop din. basta max na waterchange 40% lang siguro ma shock yung isda pag mas madami pa yung bagong tubig kesa sa luma.

then pag sasalinan mo na ng bagong tubig hose lang din galing sa gripo rekta mo sa aquarium then patakan mo ng anti chlorine tank. pero much better sana kung may drum ka na naka ready na na may anti chlorine yung tubig na then ipump mo yung tubig papunta sa aquarium.

    Tnx sir shred. Balak ko din bumili ng Overhead filter ba yun? kasi yung basic lang na filter/oxygen meron ako.

    Mukhang hassle nga siguro kung fresh water tapos may sand. pwde na siguro yung mga bato na may design.

maganda talaga kapag maliit lang aquarium.. hindi kelangan ng pump.. saglitan lang linisin.. buhay na buhay pa ang halaman kung lalagyan  ^-^

   Nakabili na ako overhead filter..

   Ayaw pa kami pag bentahan kasi maliit daw aquarium namin. 5 gallons lang.

   Mukhang need ko na din mag 10-15 gallons, nakikita ko kasi na tinatangay sila sa lakas nung buga nung filter.

  Iba pala talaga pag overhead filter gamit. mas madali.
  Question: Ang Sabi sa akin pag nagpapalit ng tubig, 20% to 30% ang tanggalin then palitan ng bagong tubig, ( yung mga nakababad na ng 12 -24 hrs)
   then mag palit ng foam, ang ginamit ko eh foam and sponge, para kasi mas nakakasala ng dumi yung sponge.

   Pero Since di lahat ng tubig sa aquarium ay napapalitan, wala na ba paraan para maging mas malinaw yung tubig?
   Malabo labo pa rin kasi.
