You should avoid using seawater and change to salt mix if you want to prevent future disease outbreaks.

I am using salt mix and parasites and diseases are introduced into the tank from newly bought livestocks. Marine ich is a very common infection.
That's why best is to quarantine first bro
Sorry that I have not been in AQ for a long time...almost 2 mths plus...in my last active post...I mentioned that I will leave my 3ft fowlr tank empty...and finally after 9 weeks i am ready to put back my fish and also converted the entire fowlr to a reef tank (added gorgonians, GSP, feather dusters & zoanthids) ...so far has been 2 weeks plus...no sign of ich (keeping fingers crossed)
At the same time, I have also set up a seahorse tank..house with mandarin fish in it...
Here to share some pix with everyone...

Recently added some caulerpas and I noticed quite a handful of "anemone-looking" stuff on it...they can move and even stick on the liverock...can anybody tell me what are these?
Looks like mojano anemone, a pest actually. Try to remove or control their spread.

Just to share with everyone my updated pic of my reef tank as at 10 Feb.
Updated pix of my reef tank as of 25 Feb - Upgraded my lighting to Green Element Evo 36 (3Wx24) LED, installed 2 big cooling fans which can cool up to 100L each and rearrangement of corals..
Added another Zebra Banded Pipefish as a companion..
How many tanks are in that room? What is your tank temperature with the fan running?

I am thinking should I add butterfly, bannerfish or Moorish idol in my reef tank, understand that they are not reef safe..but it can be a hit-and-miss thing too..just luv them! Can anybody give me an advice?
Thanks for your advice and compliment cdckjn!
Hmm..guess have to upgrade next time in order to feed such fishes!
Perhaps a Royal Gramma.. keke

Added a flowerpot coral (Goniopora) today...have to separate with other corals as this is aggressive and will sting if its gets in contact with them..
