Unfortunately the scratch came with the aquarium and is on the inside. :angryfire:
You have perfectly defined. My intention is to create a miniature landscape so my aquarium is a big nano.

Your tank is INSPIRATIONAL!
I've always wondered why more of us reefers haven't taken queues from those in the FW planted world on more than occasion. Fantastic work my man!

Thanks
No problems with my angelfish (C. Acanthops and C. loriculus actually, and P. dyacanthus the first months: he jumped out of tank) and clams or corals.

It is not the first time I see two of my Trimmas Rubromaculatum attitude of courtship, but this morning I found to see more loving than usual, so although the crystals were a bit dirty I decided to record them. (These things not always happen when you want, je,je)
I take the camera, mount the lens and start recording, my surprise was when he was recording as I realized that what I was seeing was not a simple courtship ... this is a spawing!
Part One: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QE0BmI4Ue78
Final Act: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvRg1gC0xCQ
I could not get them closer, (definitely so miniature in Iwagumi will have to be ordered a macro lens this Christmas), but if you look you can see how they have sexual organ completely outside. The largest is the male I think, because although in this species I have not seen any external feature that allows me to distinguish the sexes in other species trimmer to keep (Benjamini and Cana) if that can be easily sexed because the males have finished in the dorsal fin and the females beak shorter and rounded, and all the males are larger, so I guess these is the same. At the end of spawning the female is removed and the male who then and now remains careful and avoid placing anyone near.

And a group of five tiny trimma sp. (though I've searched the web I have not found this species):
FYI. These aren't Trimma sp. which explain why you can't find reference.
These are Coryphopterus personatus aka masked goby.Here is mine in my nano. Instead of lay eggs, they give live birth at night.
You have a very nice and clean tank and I love your fish selection. Keep up the good work!

Ok, this is my fish stock currently:
These are the two "giants" of the Reef:
- P. Hepatus: he was my first marine fish. I bought 8 years ago when I was a tiny 2 cm long fish.
- Z. Flavescens: is 6,5 years old.
I have two dwarf angels:
- C. Loriculus: is only 2 inch long.
- C. Acanthops: 1 1/4 inch long.
And the rest of my fish are very small fish ... but the list is long:
- Priolepsis Nocturna: (1 1/4 inch)
- A pair of Priolepsis Semidoliata: (1 inch)
- Synchiropus Stellatus: (1 1/4 inch)

Thank you for posting your aquarium. It keeps getting better and better.
I think the small fish focus brings everything to balance that many try but few succeed.
