Poisonous stuff u got!

cannot compare to you yet la bro :D

Well done. Look forward to more great pictures..

Thanks!!

Nice tank. Is your light strong enough for the 2 ends?

if you meant by just lighting it up then yes definitely, i even keep birdnest, zoas, acans and mushrooms around the 2 corners of my tank. but i definitely cant keep any acros there.

radioactive birdnest
my best red millie.. i seem to have problems with red color

pink birdnest
red dragon

Must have put in a lot of effort.. Cheers..

effort and hard work yes i guess! did not have lots of those automated stuff like ATO, controllers etc etc so many things have to do myself!

Super nice.. well done.

thanks for the id bro!

bro you got a very nice reef tank ;) good job

cheers

thanks!!!

its been more than 8 months since this tank was set up, from being a LPS/Zoas only tank to a SPS dominated tank! heres a few FTS showing progess throughout this 8 months.
at this moment, i got poisoned when i got my first few frags/colonies of SPS
Scape changed to accommodate more sps
corals growing really well..
this was taken today, removed the black background and used a penknife to scrap out all coraline/green algae. Loving the clean back look.. its making my tank looks much larger than the pic with the black background!
