@dweathers - im using 3 250 watts radiums with lumatek switchable ballast. i also lit the tank with 4 39watts t5ho atinic...

@TheFishTeen - the burgess is doing good but its not behaving properly. it was devouring over my aussie acans so decided to transfer it to my other tank which is a anemone tank. hope it will behave itself there.

hey there bullitr... i hope we have the chance to meet up and give you a tour of the local hobbyist in the philippines. were you able to go to Palawan? which resort did you visit? hope you enjoyed your stay in P.

honestly bro cartimars LS are all the rejects of exporter in terms of fishes. in terms of corals most of them are gathered by fish collectors who did it for the sake of extra income. so they have no definite idea which is good and which is bad. so most of there corals collected are flower pot, elegance, brains, and brown sps.

my corals usually comes from a local fisherman contact. i usually gives them pictures which to get.
