hi deff great rock work and awesome tank layout...
now i'll torture u with some questions:
- first what do u give to ur corls to eat? how often?
- how do u control ur xenia growing so much and covering all possible space like the left wall where it does look so good? how do u get it away from all the other rocks?
- there's a pic of a SCWD (hope to write it right), where did u buy it? if u bought it in the usa, how much was it for shipping? how long did it take? instead if u bought it in portugual will u be able to send one over to italy, sending u the money needed ...

thanks a lot and congrats again...


Ciao Giojo

I feed the corals with Pohl´s Coral Vitalizer (Zeovit) and some Amino from Salifert. Once in a while I put some mysis and recent born artemia.

I really don´t control xenias - they just grow as they want. I just traget them where I want them to grow.

The SCWD´s were bought here in Portugal. If you want I can by it for you but you can by one in Aquaristic - http://store.aquaristic.net/AQ8f9ff...hp?LANG=en&start=1&go=1&0.98677000+1068074632

Absolutely stunning tank!

What materials did you use to build the stand, canopy, and cabinets?
