Thanks Alex...I heard about cheato also, most other local forumers just request from other reefer some of their cheato when they do harvesting..i never thought i can be bought from LFS...plus i went to 88 petstore today and asked the lady if they're selling marine algea/plant but they seems to have no idea about it..will try Oceanic tomorrow...

Anyway, i came across ALGEA SCRUBBER as one of the filtration method which is cheap for DIY, simple and very effective in removing inorganic Nitrate & Phosphate up to undetectable level...Anyone ever try this thing, glad if you can share some experience on its disadvantages if any....

Haha, very funny!!  If KL have seaside I don mind going...

Hi guys, i'm planning to get UV sterilizer... however i noticed we can also purchase UV bulb which meant for reptile such as turtle from local pet store which significantly cheaper...my question is, can i just install this UV bulb on my sum (return chamber) to have the same effect as UV sterilizer...i dont really understand how UV sterilizer works for aquarium.. .TQ

something is not right with your water, you add any new fish lately?

UV will kill everything, but don't need to worry coz those bacteria mostly doesn't suspend in water.

yes..i add new fish..but them seem ok 2 week before i do water change..

make it a habit to have quarantine tank next time, now guess that you have to make your display tank fishless for a while.

I have a 7ft concrete tub which i use for a marine tank.

housed Pomacanthus spp.

Was hit by white spot a long time ago and until now the color of fish cannot return...but its still alive

okey..thank for advise..
