GV Coral Shipment

Went to GV today, lot of new corals arrive.. cant recall all the coral but a lot of red mushroom thought its suitable for coming CNY ;) Also a lot of doughnut and open brain corals

The other coral might interest u maybe finger coral which coming with green color and normal brown color. Other than that just normal coral like toadstool and other soft corals.

Not sure can skip gonipora which its going to die anyway if keep in our aquarium. Not many can keep this coral longer than 1 year LOL.

And lastly still got orange sea fan and glove polyps before i left ;)

Other than that have to go urself to look at the stock.

Normally new coral and fish will be arrived at GV Saturday for fish and Monday for coral.

Yeah .. finally im bought this type of coral .. but it was my mistake to start with a "expert only" coral.



So now what? let try to keep this coral, i already did some reading about this sea fan before but not much!

Since this sea fan not a photosynthesis coral ... its need to be feed. This is something i'm not good at :D . The good thing its not required a strong light so i can put it in any location in my tank.

Chaetomorpha Algae

Went to collect Chaetomorpha Algae or chaeto yesterday from other forumer. This is the 1st time i put this thing on my filtration. As for now i have RDSB, TAF and now chaeto ;)

Anway this algae looks like rumput and grow from end to end creating long, stiff strands. This algae useful to reduce BOTH phosphates and nitrates from the water. So i would like to give it try how its can reduce nitrate from my aquarium.

And thanks again for the "penderma" hope i can re-gift this to the others later stage.

Thanks
It is basically an escape. Also as a soothing element to relax in stressful environments. Some believe that seeing fish swim about helps us to forget our worries and ease our minds.
