@MasterBokNoy, Kung empty ang tank, spray with vinegar and leave for 10 minutes then use a soft sponge to scrub or the sim/credit card scraper. Kung dili madala, coke or sprite ang i-bis-bis. (puede pud pepsi, mirinda or mountain dew, ayaw lang ang rootbeer kay matud pa sa amo canteen diri alcoholic daw. bwehehe.) Kung dili pa gyud, muriatic na. Tangtang gyud na kung muriatic.

@Zakidog. Ka grabe sad nimo oy. gi gamit man dayon nimo ang aquarium after muriatic acid treatment.

@Virus. Unless ur using RO water or water softener, there is little you can do to eliminate watermarks ( high gH ). One way to minimize is to keep the water level constant so that when the water evaporates, you get the deposit in only one area. Those plastic strips glued to the sides of typical aquariums do a great job of hiding the watermarks. But thats common sense.

With regards to talisay leaves, its the tannins(brown coloring) and other organic acids in the leaves that soften water and possibly reduce pH. Driftwood or peat will have the same effect. pero mahal ang peat and driftwood expires in its leeching after some time. The softening action of the tanins can significantly reduce watermarks but not eliminate it. Lets just say that generally anything plant based and decaying you put into your tank will soften your water (reduce your gH and possibly bring down pH with it) but lets not go into cation exchange and carbonate hardness. hehe.


@DubCity, ang coral didto na namatay sa imo tank? Diba kinahanglan ka ug fancy lights para mabuhi ang coral?

Ah! I remember, Fiji Devil diay tong all blue na isda.
