DSPS tank from Thailand (1000 gallon+)

[chingchai]

That was a temporary setup for photography/show purposes only.

I believe so.
It is on the first page of their company's website but I can't remember the URL.
Should be aquafarm or something.

 

[chingchai]

how long have you had your resplendent angel?

I have this angel for more than three year.

Moser, I would like to know as well as how he fixes the noise as well as where the noise comes from. Tank or sump!!!!!

The noise is from the outlet pipe.
I will take picture of how to fix it.

Ching, Do you have a current fish stock list?

 

[chingchai]

I believe it comes from the pipe. The surface tension of the water makes the water colaesce and every so often, blocks the pipe. The pipe then goes into full siphon and as it does this, it clears the water that has backed up in the pipe. After it does this, the siphon breaks and you get a gurgling noise....

Mo

You are exactly right.

 

[chingchai]

I'm sorry if this has been asked. But I really don't want to read through this entire thread to find my answer

The small fish you have. What are they? The schooling silvery ones.

Thanks!

It is Apogon Parvulus.

Just saw the latest vid at vimeo. Wow!

Is that a Nokia N800 on the wall? Where do you use it for?

Yes, it is Nokia N800.
I use it to control sound system. (Linn Sneaky)
Select song, adjust volume etc.

WOW! :eek1: I love your tank! How much do gem tangs cost in Thailand?

The time I bought it three years ago, it costs US$1,200.
But now it is US$1,800.:eek1:

Did you QT your fish before they were placed in the display? What temp are you keeping the display? Wondering because of the interruptus living in there. Great work. T

No, I didn't QT the fish.
Just acclimate them before introducing in the tank.
My temp is 24-25 celcius (75.2-77 fahrenheit).

With such an advanced system and attention to detail, aren't you concerned of an outbreak of of ich or velvet? It would be horrible if that monster display were to be infected with such an outbreak, b/c obviously it would be impossible to treat. Just my two cents.

Are you concerned that temp is a bit high for the interruptus? There is a great article on keeping a lower temperature and the success with corals and fish and I have to dig it up. T

I think if Chingchai can survive an elephant in his fish room he can survive a bit of ich without a problem. It boggles my mind that observations like this are made when the size and scope of this project have to suggest that some experience and knowledge must be in supply.

Are'nt those the same fish he had in the previous tank?

And if they are so why to QT them?
