wow!!

thanks man DB!

means a lot sia..when a senior reefer say it looks good..

one thing challenging abt this landscape is that hard to put LPS or SPS without epoxy...cos many slopes...

there are very few "flat" or crevices...for sticking in corals..

My hammer and octopus not opening up...flowrate very high in my tank...placed them in lowest zone liao...but still wun bloom...

and my elegance bleaching.. :lol: ..but still opening up...

heng my blastos seem to do well..opening up more each day....

latest health report for DB:

no signs of ick this morning for the kole liao...

glad....hope it doesnt report sick when i return home from work..

Keeping LPS in a high wave movt tank can be tough...placing them could be tricky.

You may want to find a spot to allow your LPS to extend (that means lower current passing thru...just nice to encourage it to extend further)

as constant stress by the wave can and will kill LPS easily.

I have learnt many hard lessons when I started my mixed reef....balancing and providing the acros with the high water movt and finding those gentle spots for the softies and LPS.
