"Exotic Coral" 3600g Personal Aquarium

Hey all, thank you for asking.
The large tank has been down since I donated all the sps to M-Bay. I have a few small tanks that housing my anemones and sea grass at this time.
I'll post some pics of my tanks when I get home this weekend.
Cheers,
 
The tank was never the same after David left for active duty and couldn't find a care taker as good as Daivd after that. Also We were /are only home part time and that made things a little difficult. May start it up again some day when I am home more. I still have the mertensiis, giganteas, magnificas, haddonis and a few sps, LPS in smaller systems. Search photobucket under my user ID and see the anemones if you like. I am using this dingy little ipad and am having trouble posting the link.
 
Here are the smaller tanks

This mertensii has a 4.5 foot area to itself and it uses all of the space on most days.

It would be impossible to get sick of your pictures - thank you for sharing.

Thank you!

The tank with mertensiis, RBTAs, giganteas and with some acro is 9 ft x 30" tall and wide. The tank with haddonis is 7 ft x 30" tall and wide. Only pumps/streamers and dosers; no other equipments.
Both tanks are running with out a "skimmer" or a CA reactor for almost two years now. I am using natural sun light, ATI and AI Sol for lighting. There are two smaller sea grass tanks, 90g and 60g.

I thinlk that's eveery thing. When I am more awake, I'll ID some interesting animals / plants in the tanks.
 
Shu Tin,

I've seen your profile from a while back ... 'specially the anemones in a bowl method!! That was a giveaway :strange:

If you don't me asking whereabouts of Asia are you originally from ... you can PM me.

Hope to see you come back in a full scale again!!

Hi Paul,

I know, the anemone bowls in the tank is crazy but it works:D
I was from Taiwan and you?

From an earlier post:
"dahenley Shutin, was actually on RC while I was looking at this thread. I figured he mite drop in lol."

Some times, I forget to log off, so the computer, loptops still log in but I may not really be "on" RC. If I get a notice from my e-mail, I notmally check in and see but not always.
 
I love marine plants, and here are some pictures of few macro I have in these systems:

Amansia glumerata red whirl algae,

In some areas of the rocks, there are lots little plate and whirl colonies, very cool looking.

Hey Shu Tin,

The "stinky tofu" smells pretty foul though I don't remember that I ever try it. An acquired taste like beers and dry sambal ilkam bilis? By the way, I have eaten great Malay cooking in Toronto:)

Were you from the Sarawak side of the island?


At the mouth of Johore River, where it enters Johore Strait, there is an area near Check Java (delta to Singapore side) has a huge population of S.haddoni. In the sea grass meadows, and on the sandy beach head, hundreds of S.haddoni, but no clownish. Have you seen it?
