Aqua
2:12 AM | Author: Encore
Few day's back we went to Cartimar and bought some marine fish. We decided to build again our 5 gallons aqua, still has basic part - overhead pump, the aqua itself, some filters, foams and dead corals. So we didn't spend much for the setup. 60 php salt water good for 5 gallons -as in water talaga and not the solution. I'm bit hesitant to buy solutions since it requires calculation using Hydrometer and I don't have that equipment. We asked manong and helped us, he said "Bili muna kayo ng trial fish..." Okey! trial fish kawawa naman sila. We got 4 pairs of Clown fish some damsels.

Fast forward!

The setup looks good but the water is a bit blury. Overhead pump is not enough to clear the water so I bought a foam corner filter as a seconday filter. Yan, water is clear na but the problem is the fish naman. They seems to be stress for some reason and everyday we're loosing one. Just I expected, setting up marine aqua is not easy compare to fresh water setup. I did some experiement myself, I know that salt water setup should use salt water solution, I used the regular salt instead. I chose Fidel Iodized Salt because it has less impurities and chemicals. I added my home-made solution and luckily fishes seems to like it. They are not stress so far. We added some fish pa. Hopefully maging ok na sila.
