Evil: Thanx for the compliments man, addin reflectors really enhanced the coral reactions...

Hi bro,

Congratulations. Your tank is really nice. How I wish mine can be like yours too. :)

BTW, can you share your secret on how you grow the healthy and fast multiplying mushroom? My mushroom is getting less and less by the week.... may be because of my strong current before. What do you feed the coral and softies with?

Thanks,

Patrick

Sorry bro, really hope you don't mind...

Your tank is really really very nice! I'm actually from Singapore, just here for a couple years.

How many T5s are u using and how old is your tank??? Do you have any problems with clams at all?

WOW, didnt realise u guys were still lookin at my thread...makes me wana post more pics up heheh...stay tuned...

ryz: hahah i TRY to get more mushies out for u heheh, and YES my tank IS PACKED..

patrick123: Thanx for yr compliments - yours can be nice too, if u put in the effort daily and be consistent ;) As for the mushies, they too were upset and started to mati when i put in more lite bulbs, but after a while, and lowering them to the middle level of the tank, they started to multiply like mad - try putting them in moderate flow and lightin it helps...

szesteve: Just kidding! I'm honored to be linked in an overseas webbie! Hmmm u shld read my tank specs heheh, it is abt a year plus old, and i use 4xT5 - the clams are okie with it but not as colorful as under MH to be honest!

blacknails: Ya man, when i'm not: doing a water change/feeding corals, fishes/scrubbing the glass/topping up water/cleaning the light cover/clearing the skimmer, I love to stare at the tank and get blinded after 30 minutes of intense light and colors!

Thanx again all, for the wonderful comments, makes my effort well worthwhile! :lol:

archie, to be honest with u, i learnt how to keep my hard corals alive thru the hard way - i had a kalkwasser incident, an NO3 spike (probably due to the kalk) and an over-salinity disaster...Bottom line is, invest in the best equipment u can afford first, before u go into SPS...

Here are some pix i took today
