Deepblue's ReefTank Devt

[Dispar_Anthias]

Hmm my bro tank again.... always nice ad thats my word which will nv change

[DeepBlue]

I am going Zen in the approach ....hmmm..maybe not

imagine, whole tank with a fish and ONE ACRO colony

[DeepBlue]

21 feb update....Think I have to take out one more tang, Flubbey, time to contact you Bluey bullying my Junior

[flubberina13]

K...no prob...

[Chris]

Like what Rumour said....can try mixed reef. I have two towers, one for LPS and one for SPS. They don't come into contact at all. I also adjust Tunze to blow towards SPS tower and reflected currrent then go to LPS tower. Even my MH, can adjust. SPS side 400W and LPS side 150W...save some $ on electricity.

Hint: I love tangs too...got some..hee hee

[DeepBlue]

Would having 2 different intensity lights balance out nicely??? I have pple telling me dun try 20000K with 10000K, what about wattage?? will it blend nicely??? Curious....

Flubbey, If I catch him, I'll call you...but as I like blue tangs a lot, I dont think I'll put too much effort in catching the guy

[Golden Tooth]

U're removing the Blue Tang too?

[DeepBlue]

I have 2 blue tangs in my tank, the smaller one is occassionally chased by the bigger one, I thought of keeping one.....should do....I am considering .............

My anthias are falling one by one to crab attack...I hope after today's crab operation...no more problem liaos.....the last few days, I ave seen crab pulling in those poor guys, their bodies are alwys quite badly hurt....I am just hoping its crab and not mantis...(I heard 2 clicking sound today...sigh)

[DeepBlue]

Sold my MH 150W set, tomorrow delivering to fellow reefer....so removed liaos....

My 2X250W lights n new hood coming mid of next week....

now using the 6500k 250W you(GT) sold me to 'tong' for a few days...sighh...veri ugly 'hood' I have on top.

Will only switch on for short hours when I am at home for the next few days, in case catch fire

[nutx]

Yeah, I do miss the seductive swaying of LPS & soft corals... maybe I should change back too to a full LPS tank....

AT...many are waiting to harvest your tank!

Deepblue...if SPS is at the top only, maybe you won't need tunze, bec water flow at the top of the tank is usually stronger...then you can continue to have LPS at the lower part of your tank.....

removing Blue tang? err......can take queue number now?

btw, be prepared for a sanua room with your new lights...

Hi Deepblue,

Come over my house, I t-load you a housing for your MH. Look very unsafe using cupboard especially no one at home.

Bluey is the bigger one? If so...you try removing and return to me lor...no worries...

Just dun want your smaller one to be bullied. I will discipline her well...

Can't agree more...

Hope you 'come back' again...

That's what my wife says ...............actually most ladies dislike SPS.... like sticks sticking out and doesnt do much..............

My wife loves sps.

But of course she is not the usual type of gal as she almost cried (while most people celebrate) when her damsel died a few days ago due to cuke disaster (strucked in PH which is very high up. Never expect it to climb so high).

[DeepBlue]

ouch.............how are the rest of her corals?? How's her tank??

[DeepBlue]

Pic taken tonight .....still rescaping before the hood comes in.....soon.....

remove the centre cave and created a valley instead, with a bridge on top for the limited sps I intend to keep, the rest are all LPS and mushroom, rics.....

The PBT I got from PR is doing so well, ich free and eating pellets

[DeepBlue]

Another pic, loves those 4 big cleaner shrimps scalng the cliff wall

[Terryz_]

Scaping very nice.. Like the cliff... How you do it huh... Wun it topple over...

[jd_n]

hmm,.....so tats wat u have been busy with. Rescaped and rescape....think ur LS are pretty use to renovation works in the tank

[DeepBlue]

amazing, my sunburst swam pass my hand when I was adjusting a coral.....I think they are pretty used to my hands......nowadays, if I need a bit of cleaning on the arm, I just stick it in and let the cleaners do the job.....keke...........

Actually the rescaping is inadvertable...I have problem placing the sps on top, so need to scape a bit, basically the 2 sides are untouched

[DeepBlue]

Scaping very nice.. Like the cliff... How you do it huh... Wun it topple over...

I hope it wun topple....the basic structure is still there....I did not move it....I just removed the centre rocks...spent less than half an hour doing it...quite fast...

[FuEl]

Wow...nice rockwork....

[Golden Tooth]

Looks better.
