Agreed. Without regular WC, I dont see how we can replenish all the trace elements found in natural sea water. Corals always open up more after WC.

Nice. Is this true percula?

Ng couples have a few hidden ones... boss said is consigned by fellow reefer de so selling higher than market price...

Blue picture cannot see whether it is coraline algae or not ah.

Haha. Nice and unique decoration. My daughter will sure love your tank.

Bro, why not you set to lowest first and let the coral get used to it then up the speed?

Bro well done on keeping good water para. Maybe you want to find more infor from wetwebmedia.com?

So far i think dont have...

Bro shall have few snails. Also beware of the shrimps they will steal food from coral...

I am always frustrated by the camera of my $0 Samsung Ace3 so I took the opportunity to queue for 3 hours (you know, those 10 sets per day thingy) during last Sat electronic fairs and got myself a Nikon D3200 at a special price. Of course I am not getting this DSLR for the sole purpose of photographing my tank (my camera before this was six years old, a 8 MPS Sony), but hey since I already got it, why not maximize the usage of it. I have no complaints about the D3200 normal photos taking capability (although it is a two years old model and its newer brother D3300 is better) but when comes to taking photos for my tank, it is a completely new ball game. thus starting this topic to share what I have experienced so far and hopefully bros here can chip in on ways/ methods to help me take better photos. So far I am focusing on taking corals first, fish shall be next. sigh... if i cant take stationery corals well, those swimming fish will make me crazy... Just a few things I have learned during the last few days when come to reef photos taking. 1) Marco lens is expensive. if you are serious (and have a deep pocket) you shall get one. 2) Forget about the default marco mode, the only decent photo you can take out of it is a laptop, which is not entirely small. 3) when taking coral, exposure setting is more important than aperture and shutter speed 4) take photos in RAW format and go compare the settings for those photos that are better taken. 5) feed you coral the night before, chances are they will appear fatter and open out more. That all I can remember now. All bros/ sis are welcomed to share any tips. Below are a batch of photos that I have taken in JPG, resized to 5% of the original file size to test out how it will appear in SRC. Give myself another two weeks to take satisfactory macro photo before deciding to buy a Tamron AF 18-200mm F3.5 - F6.3 lens... from taobao...

Can use fan too. But beware of the quick evaporation.

No problem bro. Arrange the timing again.

One year ago, no wonder i didnt see any during the last few months lah. [emoji23]

I dont think toadstool will fade that easily...

Wah bro, yellow cup is hard to come by nowadays. May i know where did you get yours ah

Bro, your blue face so far good reef citizen?

[emoji41] bro, good to see your tank back in action.

Typo. Is cant...

Pict taken with hp, can show clearly the body.

Is it aussie toadstool? I got one from iwarna, also green tenicles but body is the normal brownish blue type.

The problem is that those shops might not have them every week. I have since switched to arcti pods and copepods max. Also $25 per bottle but at least i got more mileage out of my $ ah

I feed them phytoxxx live but after one week the population become lesser... i think my two green dragonet eat faster than they can grow...

Tigger pods needs to be fed daily. I tried once but concluded that the $25 can be better spent elsewhere [emoji23]

Yo bro. Like before 5am : total dark. 5 - 630am white 0% blue 5% UV 10%. 631AM start sunrse. I find this setting useful as it give fish ample time to wake up and ready for first ray of white light ah.

Or cloud effect?
