DSPS tank from Thailand (1000 gallon+)

The rescaping looks really awesome Chingchai...and coral placement looks very natural...
It doesnt even seem than you have removed the corals and put it back...blending in nicely with the scape already.
We can only imagine the painstaking work that you and your fish guys have put into it.....it really shows and definately will be rewarded down the line. Your passion and dedication to this hobby is No.1 in my eyes...a true inspiration.

The tank is gonna bounce back to all its glory for sure.

Just a word of caution..getting regular MH burns is not a good thing....you should apply aloe vera cream or sun block before you get exposed to halides....

Cant wait to see the water cleared up and new shots of the refreshed Chingchai reef :)
 
I was tempted to grab a setosa myself at a frag swap this weekend: They were pretty pricey but have since come down to 15-25 dollars for a decent fragment

Very nice looking piece to add to your system.
 
Perhaps it's just me, but I think the tank looks much better and more natural without all the corals on the sand.
I agree this hobby is fun, even when going against the current.
 
Nice job and i hope all would be okay

Today I spent 5 hours in the tank.
Getting wet, scratches myself, burn my back and sweating.
But I can still hum the song.
Man. I love this hobby so much!

Adding one of my favorite coral: Montipora setosa

I have just finished reading all the way through this thread. There are few things more enjoyable in life then watching a master at his craft. I hope one day to make it your part of the world and see this tank in person.

There is nothing I could add that hasn't been said. Simply well done. Your dedication and overcoming burnout is an inspiration. Burnout is something every serious hobbyist encounters at some time, and it is nice to see it overcome.

I am surprised to say I agree with DNA that I think the tank actually looks better without all the coral on the sand. It seems more natural this way.
 
just a question how did you reattach corals I use two part epoxy but hard to get them to hold in place especialy with larger corals ?
Just want to say love this tank
 
Wow that is a lot of work, but it will look so much better after this that it would make up for the time and effort you put in. Now I can't even imagine anything nicer than it was before, but I'm sure you will suprise us again. :)

Anup. Thanks for your caution.
But I do have thick skin. LOL.
