DSPS tank from Thailand (1000 gallon+)

[chingchai]

Well....

I finally finished reading every word of this thread. I'm glad, because I don't I have to worry so much about being fired at work or getting a divorce at home!

I'm certainly no expert at water quality, lighting, filtratration systems, corals, fish or even good wine, but I am an extreme expert in the appreciation of beauty (aren't we all experts in this?). Your set up is the most beautiful tank I have ever seen, by far.

As I mentioned when finally completing Peter's thread, the beauty of his tank is almost secondary compared to the pleasure I get from the whole project, ie, the concept of a "community build", best practice, input from the pro's from all over the whole world, and the way he manages his thread with humbleness, responding to every reply, and the pure passion he has for the "hobby".

I think and feel the same way about you. Any guy or gal with the proper funds could easily have sat back and written a check to have a project like this completed and check on it from month to month like a room addition, but you have the passion to be totally involved, committed and the guts to be on the cutting edge.

Thank you for inviting us all into your bulid and your home!

Someday, if invited, I would love to sit and have a long chat with both of you guys with some good wine.

Thanks for sharing and giving us folks in the peanut gallery some daily pleasure.

Mark

ps, I think the funniest thing said in this thread was that you have a huge 1000 gallon sump/refuguim for your softy tank!!!!

Mark. Thank you for your kind words.
You guys are always welcome to see my tank.

Last week I did have a chance to visit one of the most famous marine fish shop.
It is Blue Harbor in Osaka, Japan.
http://www.blueharbor.co.jp
If you want rare fish, you have to ask Koji.
He is the one who can find it.

Hi Ching,

Nice picture from Japan, I have some question about SPS PEST ?

1. It's can 100 % Guarantee using CORAL RX to removes all SPS PEST?

2. Why you keep 50 peppermint shrimp in your main tank?

3. Do you have NATURAL PREDATOR to removes SPS PEST in your main tank ?

Thanks again Ching

Regard

Anton

Most of the fishes are doing okay. But I lost one pair of Sacura Anthias on the other day.

No, I don't use any Abyzz yet.
I am thinking about changing my moonlight from Philip to Eco-lamp LED.
But I have to wait for my electrician to come and see whether they can re-wire them.

Arnie. Thank you for your kind words.
Now I only have two Achilles Tangs.
The rest of them were died with no reason. They didn't fight with each other or other fishes.
They just stopped eating.
