Wow. Impressive. So simple and clean! Kudos bro.

THanks bro. It's simple cos there's no sump. Clean cos i use distilled water to prevent algae growth (low phosphate). But need daily water top up caused by evaporation.

Bro slapper, how much water do you topup daily? Are the dymax fans any good? I'm using the sunon fan and its only able to bring my temp down to 28'c.

Hi, bro slapper simply love your tank :thumbsup: especially the sea horse and the shrimp may I know what do you feed them i went to iwarna to inquire a small bottle of oyster egg liquid food already cost $25 quite expensive.

Thank you bro. I do not keep seahorses anymore as they are slow eaters. Will never be able to compete with the faster fishes. I feed pallets and frozen Mysis to my fishes and shrimps. The shrimps eat whatever that's left on the ground.

Thank you. Many of my corals are not expensive. Normal prices. Most expensive piece is probably $80? And that's the pulsating Fiji Xenia. The orange Yuma is $20+ I think. The rics floridas are about $30 per polyp. My shrimps do not disturb my corals. it's impt to know the compatibility. Do not get camel shrimps.

btw bro also can share how you do your photography? nice photos especially the colouring :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Nothing special about the photography. It is using iPhone 5. The colors are caused by the LED lights. It brings out the vibrancy of the corals.

THanks bro. The colors IMO has too strong contrast due to the LED lights. It looks more natural when looking at the real thing.

solid nano tank

THanks Bro. It's impt to know what livestocks works for your tank, and what doesn't, esp corals. Even with normal corals for a tank like mine, you can still make it look good. But there's always a danger in such nano tanks. Deterioration of water quality can quickly affect the livestocks in there due to its small size. This is the challenge that every nano tank owners will face.

just bought a super sun coral from iwarna. 2 blue notes...but seeing how healthy it is, I think it's worth it.

Yes bro, open up very beautifully and really worth the price. Mine also got from iwarna last year till today still going strong.
