hey pig pig, u pm me ur mobile number

what is black water? for rm250.. 3x6 de..

there are a few ways to reduce the ph wan

almost instantaneous method wud be to use black water
(please be very careful here,....instant ph changes can cause ph shock to the aro [thats the reason i dun use it])

another method which is slower is to use peat moss, where you just put into the filter as the water goes through it will start to lower the ph slowly (but plz do check the instructions cuz i've never used it before lol)

but more curiously is why is your tank at ph 7.0 and your fgt 8.0
any differences in whats in the filter?
and also what is your tap water ph?


if you are using a ph pen or ph meter, plz do take note that there are 2 factors that can affect and give you false readings.

1) light turned on....somehow your tube lights will affect the ph lower than it really is in the tank

so its best to either take the water out in a cup and then use the ph meter/pen to do the reading or turn off all the lights in the tank to take the reading

2) temperature of the tank .....altho little / very slight, it does affect the readings a bit...but only a bit, but if the temperature difference is that of 2 worlds (ie: aquarium in room, and fgt is oustside in the sun) then yes the reading will be different due to the temperature.

update
low grade red under T5 Fluorescent Light

i had read somewhere, it say for a new tank, must do water cycle at least 2 times...fill the tank with water, let it cycle and after that rinse back the tank, and add back the water and let it cycle back and do again the same step

at the third, just let the water cycle 24 hours before put in the fish

they said, new tank may have some chemical that came from factory where is the tank has been build

what is black water? for rm250.. 3x6 de..

Where you buy for so cheap? the size is 6x3x3 or 6x3x2?

Rm 250.00 is cheap. where do u get it ? if possible i m planning to rent a fiber tank for temporary usage to heal the DE problem

that is really nice one

how much did you bought it?

Bro, is it FGT or plastic tank? If FGT with that price, really cheap hor..

hi guys, i think is 6x3x2.. my father bought it one.. he oni mention fibre tank.. oh ya and he also mention it is a second hand 1.. hehe.. comes with the cover as well.. but my dad didn collect the cover yet..

eh guys,


if you gonna leave your 4 inch arowana for 3 days without anybody going to feed cricket, what life food will you choose?

fishes (ikan longkang or ikan kap)
shrimp (udang putih)

and how much u will buy it, RM1 or RM2

coz i am going for holiday, and will leave my 4 inch YT bout 3 days

suggest me please

3 days ar, i guess on the day before going off just feed it till its full loe

then go off for trip and come back then feed it again

its ok to leave it for 3 days no food

u like lo..jz that if u wanna put in feeder fish, my suggestion is, turn off lighting, include ur room lighting, dont give it any light, so that it wouldn't use it's eyes, hence no DE chances will happen
meanwhile, it will only rely on it's barble to sense for food.... =)
better dun put shrimp..later the razor horn struck ur aro's stomach, it will dies,...


@jamestan...erm, how to say a...say u are coming in from sungai besi highway, u will come across a cross junction below a bridge with traffic light right? that's the bridge lo...from that directions,
the shoplots i've mentioned is on ur left side...facing the big road..

Just bought a beta fish to replace my froggie

thanks and credits to Leggedy's idea which inspired me to try this...

so here's a video and proof of getting the aro to look up more



Hope you enjoyed it




my conclusion is that the aro is more interested with the beta than the froggie cuz froggies just sit still and not move whereas the beta moves a bit

now here's the funny bit....i tried 1/2 submerging the container with the beta so its showing at the surface level of the tank water....
apparently the aro doesnt seem to be interested with it that way......
shortly i put it back hanging 1cm above water surface then the aro goes and stare up again more

That's a really cool idea, thanks for sharing!

nice, who'se singing in the background?

@bensow

hehe tq

the singer is Hayley Legg, search her up on yourtube
i love to listen to her ^^

@white palace
thx xD

you can also use crickets / worms / frogs haha whichever fancies your aro's interest

@jamestan

its directly opposite ajinamoto factory....
its opposite side of K-Link office building

If your comming from the petrol station which has McD with it...going down hill...meaning the mcD and petrol station is on your right, its towards the end just before the traffic light there is a turn right in....once u are turned in you just go to the end turn left then another turn right....and then towards the end u will see a turn right just before the exit to the highway...once u in there just keep going and you will see that ol' kuchai lama lfs xD

if you not confident, just gimme a pm, we'll arrange sometime to meet up at the common places like tmn desa medical center / pearl point or easier even if you know the petrol station at kuchai lama with mcD drive thru hehe

i go to this kuchai lama lfs often to buy my ghost shrimps xD
and yes...they are quite the ego
at least they got rid of the lansi indo shop assistant that they had and replaced with a nicer fresh indon lol

wow.
sifu leong2084.that is great idea.tq for sharing.
