dont think too many people can say
they are as (literally) 'immersed' in this hobby as you!

pics are awesome
and a fresh (photo) 'perspective' of aquarium life - here on RC.

Wow! Those pics of the cleaner wrasse in the Gills of the Sailfin are awesome!

 

[plyr58]

Also, how about some pics of the equipment on this tank? Did you end up having to pay that much and buy a Deltech or did you get something different?

 

[Matias Ilhabela]

a friend gave me a etss 1000 used,
Imagine my face when I put a green bird in the reef and ate my elacatinus Figaro.
the only equipment they have is the skimmer, a chiller and a UV boyu 40w filter, change 150 liters of water per month, and not put any supplement, only kalkwasser.

Warren, The aquarium is in my restaurant, this evening after we close I do some general photos

mount another reef in December of 1200 liters, yet mature, then it mounts a topic.

How do you nominate for tank of the month?

 

[Matias Ilhabela]

Drew sorry, but my reef is very weak near the reefs of the month that appears in the central reef.

you've seen one of machines in RC so ugly?

 

[dvanacker]

Beautiful !!!

 

[plyr58]

it isn't about fancy equipment. It is about results. You built so much from scratch and have a ton of great looking specimens. I am totally impressed!!!!

 

[Matias Ilhabela]

some friends say that I am crazy by the reef,
my wife says that my profession is aquarium and my hobby is the restaurant :lol: :lol: :lol:
I bought a zanclus a year ago, I read enough that he feeds on sponges, buy the fish in Sao Paulo 210km from my house, I came with the zanclus midnight at home, 1 hour of morning I was diving to get him to eat sponges, morning when the fish had 4 different types of sponges to choose what I eat :lol:

and even with all this attention he died in 6 months.
he liked more of that sponge.

tb he liked to eat small ascidians
