Soklan boring nak jawap dan biasanya adalah soklan faveret. In general, tak kira penambahan hidupan dalam aquarium dan hanya melibatkan cost nak jaga iaitu letrik, bulb replacement ... cost lebih kurang cam nih (ni base on aku punya lebih kurang)
1) Letrik (harga divide 2 dari total, senang kira) - RM 70/monthly
2) Garam - RM 150/ 5 months = RM30
3) T5 (assume tukar 8 bulan sekali) - RM 100/8 month(100 paling mahal) = RM 12.50
4) Food (depend bagi makan apa, yang mahal nya liquid food) - RM 10/monthly
So Total lebih kurang = 70 + 30 + 12.50 + 10 => RM 132.50
cost ni depend kepada:
1) Jenis hidupan + jumlah
2) jenis lampu dan bilangan ( ni je lah kot yg makan letrik pon)
3) besar aquarium
4) tak ngada ngada nak try benda benda baru .. heheh
Tapi berapa pon costnya, tak penting sangat. Yang paling penting enjoy dan tak nyusahkan diri sendiri .. ehhehe
Tengah best layan tido tengahari tetiba panas semacam jek... rupanya blackout daa. Ingat kan satu taman blackout. Dengan rasa diri hebat try tengok main suiz .. rupa nya sini off .. memang laa tak der letrik.
So try laa on .. dengan pantas dia off balik ... ampess confirm ada yg short circuit nih .. so 1st thing yg try mati kan suiz aquarium... selepas try on .. nampak nya aquarium yg buat hal ...
Setelah dibelek belek ... benda yg rosak nampak nya return pump. Since ada Rio HF 32 yg lama, try laaa pasang, mana tau leh jimat duit .. hheh.. nampak nya buang masa aje try pasang semua tu .. rio pon boleh blah.
Setelah gagahkan diri kejap .. tros gi Oceanic dan tak banyak cerita skip jenama pump lama @ cap ayam dan beli yg agak ok compare cap ayam tu.
Disebabkan pump baru ni Eheim Compact 5000 ada waranty 3 tahun ... kira ok lah tu .. kalau dia buat hal lagi hantar kasi warranty.
Apa apa pon nasib baik dia jadi skrang bukan masa kat kampung ... kalau tak lagi laa haru.. syukur
During the first month of using this new product, seem have a little overall improvement which:
PO4 - remain undetected (i doubt it, maybe related to test kit not able to give correct reading)
NO3 - down from 25ppm to 10ppm
These two reading directly cause better water visibility and more clearer. Other than these, the most important thing that i want to archive is give better/more food to aquarium inhabitant. So compare to twice daily, now its up to 4x daily (pallet), 1x liquid food (zoo + phyto), 1x in 2 days (nori) and once a week chopped shrimp + cyclopeeze.
While that certainly a good improvement, but certain area like reactor need to shake/clean within 2 or 3 days, make my life with these pellet a bit irritating. After got some idea from other forumer, decided to modified the reactor. Since then there is no more reactor clog.
The overall improvement also can be seen thru algae on glass. The need to clean glass panel several times per week has been reduced to just once a week (even tho is less still need to be clean for a better view :D). Anyway its also effected the chaeto population. Chaeto volume decrease a bout half of the original size. Its looks good but its created more job for pump cleaning! dead chaeto clogging all the pumps include wave maker! which is make overall performance for all pumps reduced! I wish i do not have to remove it cause it good for pods population. Let see how this thing going at the later stage.
Fishes health not give me any issues as for now, i believe they doing well. As for coral, there is slight changes in open brain coral which is not open up since pellet has been introduced. Not sure what the causes, but believe its related to a better visibility? not sure need more info on this.
Since im having RDSB, i believe its going to take a longer time to completely reduced NO3. This is related to hidden nutrient trap within the RDSB. I believe this situation also apply to other carbon dosing method.
On the other note, i'm not having bacteria bloom like others experience. Not sure if its a good thing or bad. But i'm ok with it as long as its gave me a better result.
Below the summary of my pellet installation:
- 500ml NP Biopellet
- Phosban 150 reactor
- Eheim 1002 compact pump
- output directly to Beckett Skimmer's pump
Other than that, weekly water change is must(this is what i believe) cause it will help to restore other parameter like trace element, Ca, KH etc.

Read as "JUALAN BATU MURAH"... Damn its true! .. this is probably the first time i heard about it ... and yes its cheaper compare to a normal price that we always seen in any of LFS :D
