Well, well, well......
Wich tank looks way way better now?????
You're welcome, again...
We're here to improve your reef keeping experience....
:rollface::rollface::rollface:
2 more things:
- I noted a job not so well done in the bottom right corner.
Please redo it and take another photos to show the improvement.
- Get the frag rack and the egg basket both lost.
They're polluting the front view...
And Dom, if you're thinking about murder, think again. I'm in the other side of the planet.......:smokin:

Hey Perry! Thanks man, I'm really happy that I finally the tank is getting somewhere!Wow, I love the tank Dom! Starting to take off mate!!!
I got bored doing the overflow so that will be this weekends job haha and the frag rack and shroom box unfortunately have to stay in the tank until I sort out the lights on the frag tank. They're not great and need a bit of an upgrade! I'm working towards getting an XR15 Gen 4 Pro for the sump
Oh I'll book some flights if I have to :uzi::uzi: hahaha

When you get bored you may think: 'Ohhhh....I could get a tank as big as Alex's tank and, if I have, my arm probably is getting off with miserable pain right now...."
So..............cut the chit chat off and do the job sir!
I'm working towards getting an XR15 Gen 4 Pro for the sump
That's sound good....
I'm booking some flights too......:wavehand::wavehand::wavehand:
PS.: There's something really really nice about your tank Dom: It has personality! :beer::beer::beer:

haha I'm am not jealous and I would probably not last very long cleaning the back haha
Thanks Alex
I think it's definitely getting there, the fish give it a really strong personality as they have such strong personalities too! I'm very much enjoying this scape as well!Thanks matey!
They're always special frags
haha I'll have to take some close ups soon

Also I thought I'd do a bit of a fish run-down too. I've had some pretty sh!t luck in the last 12 months with fish unfortunately Some unexplained losses, surfers and sump divers but my babies that are in the tank at the moment are doing really well. They get feed pellets 4 times a day and I've been really slack and haven't been feeding frozen of late but everyone is at least fat and happy. The best part about the fish is my Magma Wrasse is finally turning into a terminal phase male! He's getting really really stunning and just the most gorgeous deep red!
My current fish list sits at 9 fish, 7 in the tank and 2 in the sump:
- "Burgers" Chaetodon burgessi (he's the only one with a name haha aside from the mean things I call my female gold nugget)
- Centropyge colini
- halichoeres melasmapomus (she's my oldest fish and holds a very dear place in my heart)
- liopropoma susumi
- Cirrhilabrus shutmani
- Hologymnosus doliatus (he's getting too big and needs re-homing, also the destructor of snails lol)
- Odontanthias borbonius
The sump monsters are:
- A pair of premnas biaculeatus, Gold Nugget Maroon Clownfish who I adore because the female is an aggressive little cow and the sump tank is her's haha
I have some plans on future additions that go as follows:
- 3-5 pseudanthias flavicauda, a bunch were collected recently and I've been waiting for a rarer more interesting species of anthias to add to the tank. P. tuka are my all time favourites but I can't afford to put that much time and effort into them.
- Cirrhilabrus isosceles, I had a gorgeous male but lost him to mystery causes and they're one of my favourite species so I will be getting another!
- Paracheilinus attenuatus, another one I've wanted for quite some time!
- Macropharyngodon vivienae, a harem of these beauties would blow my mind!!
- An Australian caught prognathodes sp. is a must for me, I love butterflies so much!!
- Lucky last is my pipe dream fish that one day I will own! The infamous cirrhilabrus claire!!!!
That's about it for this fish update haha

Well I took everyone's advice and bought a couple of nice pieces for the tank! Took some shots and will maybe take some top downs tonight after I finish repotting my chilli's and gardening lol
Also did a 40L water change, siphoned the sand and changed the carbon. Need to clean the skimmer tonight.
