I have more-or-less finish featuring all my hardwares... now let's move on to fun stuff :lol:

Here's the middle section of my tank with my favourite Whiskers Coral (Duncan) in the foreground

A new Sea Fan added yesterday... already blooming... a good sign indeed

Appreciate your views and suggestions :bounce1: :bounce3: :bounce2:

Thanks for the kind words... the display tank is slightly more than 1 month (restarted) but the sump tank has been running for more than 1 year.

Will share my fish list later.

Here's another shot of this red beast :mad2:

My current fish list:
1 x Powder Blue Tang (from previous setup)
1 x Black Tang (from previous setup)
6 x Anthias
4 x Ocellaris Clownfish
1 x Algae Blenny
1 x Pipefish (from previous setup)
2 x Banggai Cardinal (from previous setup)

Here's a night shot with 1 x ATI Blue Plus + 1 x ATI True Actinic.

Acquired this Red Bubble Tip Anemone from a fellow reefer here.

Hopefully my 4 Ocellaris Clownfish will make it their home soon

Some night shots... enjoy

Received a surprise from the US yesterday... I didn't know the parcel will travel via Anchorage

Due to the long distance travel (which will take 2 full days)... I will only be able to order Zoas/Palys and Rics/Mushrooms as they can survive well.

Nice tank love the rock work!

I scratched my tank

Any idea how I can eliminate (or at least reduce the visual impact)? My tank is made of common float glass (12mm) Thanks!

 

[Je®vis]

Any suggestion?

Yeah I'm sure it's gonna be quite a task... will source for something useful and try on a small piece of glass before attempting it on my tank Will update you guys

Here's the highlight from my US coral shipment... 2 pieces of red Rhodactis sanctithomae... almost impossible to find in LFS here :mad2:

Both polyps been opening very well... love the bubbles

After 5 days... my Red Bubble Tip Anemone decided to move around... and transformed into long sweeping tentacles... will continue to monitor it closely in the coming days
