Haven't quite made up my mind, but definitely Tangs, gobies and anthias.

Some stuff that I am quite sure of already.. Just not sure of the sequence yet.. Because these are my all time favorites

1) Sohal Tang (already reserved at AM)

2) Yellow Tang

3) Blue Tang

4) Flame Angel

5) Midas Blenny

6) Hopefully a pair of Mandarin Gobies

7) 2x Sunburst Anthias

8) 3x Blue eye Anthias

9) Algae Blenny

10) a few Sand sifting gobies

11) a fair of True Percula

12) Maybe a pair of Picasso Clown in my refugium

13) Wrasses and other cleaning crews

Also.. wishing for an Archilles Tang too, just not sure if I have the confidence.. But probably if I were to get, will try to make it my first surgeon fish and get it stable first while my water is still 100% disease free..

Wow! I am also into Tangs. Clown, naso and powder series except for Arcilles.

Had to post this man! Haha my 1 Hp compressor with titanium coil is finally up! With a elliwell ICPlus 902 digital thermostat! Had put in quite a lot of careful planning to ensure that the chiller fits nicely in the tank without unsightly wires and trunking!

The trunking is concealed by the cabinet and runs up beside the overflowpost-21059-0-08073500-1422880505_thumb.jpost-21059-0-98647200-1422880522_thumb.jpost-21059-0-08551100-1422880539_thumb.j

Then the trunking runs inside the false ceiling from the living room area to the master bedroom!post-21059-0-62814100-1422880556_thumb.jpost-21059-0-30962200-1422880620_thumb.j

Exits the bedroom to the balcony and eventually to the Aircon ledge which the compressor is housed together with my original Aircon unit

Finally had the time to set up the FR and Nitrate Reactor that I got from AM! Hope they will be able to keep the nutrients low in the long run!

Almost 3 weeks! Can't wait for the tank to complete its cycle!!post-21059-0-86977800-1423667518_thumb.jpost-21059-0-98403600-1423667498_thumb.jpost-21059-0-05724800-1423667015_thumb.j

Let there be light~ and corals too :)

One question, do you guys feel that the wave is too strong in these videos? Think my RW20 is too strong, even at 1/10 bar..

Hey fellow reefers! Wanna check if anyone is dosing bright well Kalk2+?? Currently trying to dose with this product, but it seems that after many days of dosing with my dosing pump, my calcium level is not rising..

Some details of my dosing,

About 1 macdonald teaspoon with 1.5l of water.. 45 ml per day, 3 dose of 15 6 hours apart.. They are times where I even added extra on top of the dosing pump..

Today I even tested the stock solution, and the ca count is like less than 200... Is my stock solution too diluted? Instructions say 1 teaspoon per gallon tho.. Any advice?
