I am very impressed and love how you were able to miniaturize Mr Kang's tank. The aquascape gives you tons of places to set up frags!

Keep up the good work!

For the SPS, yes. But there's some dead spots around the base rocks, i will be adding another rw4 wavemaker soon though!

Update:

Its been a week since i started running Rowaphos and its been 4 days since i stopped running AIO Biopellets. Friend was kind enough to help me test my po4 with a Hanna checker and astonishingly, my po4 is at 0.11ppm! Cant image the po4 level 1 week before (Which i've yet to start rowaphos).

Now for some coral pics!

A Pretty crocea!


I've noticed some color changes after i stopped AIO and started rowaphos.

Blue tip are starting to appear on my ice fire


Desalwi's green is coming back


Purple bonsai's purple is coming back too


Bali slimmer previously was almost brown!


Brown-ed out SSC


Recently acquired SSC also browned out!


Luckily color of my fav SSC is still not too bad


Loving this blue tenius, my first 'test water' frag for this tank turns out the be a beauty, should've bought a colony instead!

2 new addition from auzzie




As you can see from the coral pictures above, you can spot a great amount of green hair algae, brown algae and some cyano. Bought a sea hare hoping it will do some good!

I've also been stocking up pretty fast and should be stopping collection of anymore fishes!

Fish list now :

1 x True perc
4 x Blue Eye Anthias
2 x Dispar anthias
3 x Red spot cardinal (Damn, 5 died! 1 a day!)
1 x Mandarin
1 x Fairy solon wrasse
1 x Melanurus Wrasse
1 x Fork tail Blenny
1 x Midas Blenny

Clean Up Crew:

10 x nassarius snail
4 x Astrea Snail
4 x Turbo Snail
4 x Spiny astrea snail
2 x Red leg hermit crab

1 x Sea Hare


Total of 16 fishes! Most of them are small (1") only the mel and solon wrasse are bigger. Most are on TDO pellets only some new additions are yet to be trained.

Beautiful tank

 

[mhucasey]

Those are some really nice frags! I need to get a lokani again, one of my favorites!

 

[k4ndyk1ng]

This tank is beautiful, are you also on YouTube?

 

[sahin]

Man so jealous of your Royal Blue Milli and 20K Lokani! Tanks looking great despite the recent issues when you went away. Colours are looking very nice too! Keep up the good work.

Thanks man! A good friend running full zeovit with an 8 tube ATI fixture passed this to me, i do hope im able to hold the color but hopes are not high!

This tank is beautiful, are you also on YouTube?

Thanks! i did uploaded a couple of videos to youtube. i'll be uploading a new one tomorrow and i'll share it here.

Thanks! Its a pity the royal blue millie appears to be losing color, my high phosphate is probably the cause. I guess it will take time before everything stablise and hopefully color will return.

Very nice SPS collection and great rockwork!

 

[evolutionZ]

Yet another update...

SSC totally browned out.. hoping to see it turn back to its former glory (my avartar's pic) in the future!


This however, has been turning into a beauty


I got myself this super cool looking sky blue staghorn.. its huge!




Top view showing most sps in my tank


Totally brightens up my entire tank! i'm only hoping i can hold the sky blue color now!

 

[evolutionZ]

Very nice SPS collection and great rockwork!

Thanks!

 

[mhucasey]

I've had a lot of frustration holding light blues like your stag. I'm interested to see how it works out for you, good luck!!!

 

[yano]

Any red spot cardinal survived?

 

[Pife]

That's crazy to be able to find a coral that large for sale.
