very nice video bro.... what a lovely tank you have!

[slapper]

thank you bro. I've a few crashes previously mainly due to overseas trips. Otherwise, it is pretty stable.

Bro your tank don't look like a 2ft tank at all haha. Very nice tank and video! So much variety of corals, hard to believe you're only running fans, definitely a well planned set up

THanks Bro! It is 2 feet and not very wide (altho i wish it has more width and height). U will be amazed how many corals i pack in there. I'm out during the daytime so the fan is constantly running. By the end of the day, the temp can go as high as 28C. In the evening i will turn on the air-con (partly becos i wanna enjoy the air-con as well ) to lower the temp to 25-26C. I'm not really successful in keeping corals such as true octopus and torches (mainly long tentacles one). They stay with me about 3 months or so and start to die off. Not sure is it because of the high temp. May someone can provide advice!

What a nice 2ft nano tank.. Gotta learn from you because I don't wish to have a chiller too.. Did u open up your window during daytime? Just wondering how you kept the temperature at 28c only using fan..

[slapper]

I draw the curtains down so the room is dark. Windows are close as well. Guess it really depends which direction you place your tank. There are some corners of the house where the temperature is lower.

Sharing my 'superman' scolymia australis (left) and 'bleeding apple' scolymia australis (right). Quite low maintenance coral. Daily feed of phytoplankton. Beware if you have fire shrimps/cleaner shrimps as they might damage the soft tissues.

Several. Mostly from Aquamarin and Wong Loy Kee. Sometimes from Balestiar and West Coast as well.

Hi slapper can ask you where is those place u mention at the location ? I like to get more information.

Fantastic collection of scolys bro!

[slapper]

Thanks bunster bro. Tho it's costly but they are easier to maintain than some corals. I haven't had much luck with chalice and acans.

Actually I get my livestocks from several locations. For corals I normally buy them from GO or AC.
