Thanks for the compliments. The tank is fully loaded and I have problems trying to find space to put more frags.

The LPS have grown and I have problems with them touching each other.

Good news is I got the green light to setup a tank at home so I'll be transferring the corals to the home tank which project will start after CNY.

This office pico will be converted to either SPS or frag tank.

Bacteria hosts in the sand and water column too. I only have 1 fish and I change water frequently whenever I feel like it to keep the bio-load low.

I am running chaeto in the HOB with filter floss. I have 2 small pieces of LR in the DT. Thats all.

Haha, pros and cons.. the major concern is the temp issue as my corals are currently enjoying the 24'c temp, bring over to home tank would be abt 27-28'c as I am only using fan to cool the tank.

Also I cant benefit from the free distilled water supply anymore haha!

Haha I just have a simple tank, unlike others who have the real gems. Do I really have to post a pic here or start a new thread? haha

And btw, I have 1 PE frag left. Interested?
