If you dont mind the mess the sand shifting goby creates. They look pretty and very hardworking. My yellow sleeper goby is driving me crazy but does a good job cleaning the sandbed daily....

Thanks for sharing. They are beautiful. It is my intention to lift all corals fr sand bed cos I hv a sand dollar. So I think it is unlikely tt fishes will be able to mess up much...hopefully. 

Meantime, will add a sand shifting starfish when I able to find the right size.

Came back to more algae on rocks. Managed to transferred more corals over after yesterday’s water change  n brushing off most algae.

Lights is at 50%. Time to up soon.

Wah very nice! What lights you’re using. Looks very neat with the hanging kit. 

Using Radion XR15w. Love the lights. Need to learn to adjust  though cos pics turn out too blue.

Wah nice! The guys don’t get it. I have to pay for it.....

Btw, did u use a diffuser for the radions? Looking at them too. Don’t know what’s the diff between them and the hydras 26Hd. Many sps keepers swear by them.

Yes. Using diffusers. 

I am using both. Hydra 26 HD for my Lagoon n Radions for my new tank. I love both but if given a choice to choose between these 2, definitely the Radions.

 Neighbour saw me struggling with a saw n came to my rescue. Not that I am unable to do it. Just that he was irritated by the sound of sawing aluminium Such helpful neighbour :lol:

it was quite challenging to fit n painful fr pulling the net but I am happy with the overall outcome.
