What exacly do you mean ? These are to different aquariums, recent one is very well made, I think ewerything form "set up" was though through, didnt had any equipment problems... 90% of corals from my last aquarium survived
and there are some new ones.....
There is no problem with translating my 'feeding process' to english
there's problem with time to do that

No no, it's just short for his Nick name. Just as some write to me "slap".

what city do you live in natan? i'm your neighbour and if its not too far,maybe you could recomend some fish stores,because we,lithuanians go to poland for cheap shopping
I'm from Warsaw, can recomend you Acropora shop (www.acropora.pl), probably the best shop in Poland

slapshot no its not
dainiusiva is right - word "pan" in english is "mister"
I'm Natan - Pan Natan - Mr Natan ... pure Natan was busy
I get that. I just mean instead of typing out the whole name we just type out the beginning. As I said Slapshot becomes "Slap", Pan Natan becomes "Pan". Dainiusiva would become Dain. Bad habit of us Yanks, want to shorten the time it takes to do anything. :rollface:

well since my name is Dainius,it would become 'day news' and in the end i'd be called 'day'
So these are my feeding process:
I’m feeding manually; so far I don’t see any need to automate it.
Frozen food
To make everything much more easy and to save some time I’m preparing mix-food cubes.
Just take some cubes of different food.
Invertebrate foods x 4
Red plankton x 5
Green plankton x 4
Micro plankton x 4
Mix sea eggs x 4
Moina x 5
Wrotka Czerwona x 4
Artemia x 2
I’m defrosing all cubes, mixing them.
Pour them back to mould and freeze again.
This is making everything very easy: 1 – 3 times a day I’m taking one cube and simply throw it into sump, circulation is making everything else.
Dry foods
Products which I’m using:
FM Ultra Pac
FM Ultra Calm
FM Ultra Seafan
FM Min F
Preis Coral Energizer
PhytoPlan
Usually I’m feeding corals with dry foods 1 – 3 times a week, I’m mixing 1/4 – 1/3 teaspoon of Calm, Seafan, MinF, CE, PhytoPlan with tank water, switching off all circulation and with syringe feed every single twig of each seafan, after that I’m switching circulation in main tank back on, and after one hour I’m switching back on main circulation pump.
Once a week:
„Gear”:
Firstly I’m mixing Ultra Pac with RODI.
When it turns jelly I’m adding 1/3 - 1/2 teaspoon of Seafan, Calm and MinF
Mix everything
And we have nice coral soup.
And again feeding with syringe with main circulation pump switched off.
Night time feeding
I’m trying to feed lps every night, usually an hour before light go out.
Again to make it easy, and not to soak my hands in tank, I made extension to my syringes so my hands are above tract.
For each day for all my lps I’m using 2-3 cubes of large food (e.g. mysis) and 1-2 cubes of small/medium food (e.g. prawn eggs)
I’m feeding manually; so far I don’t see any need to automate it.
