Advise you to shift your hi fi speakers away from your tank. You dont want them to get spoilt by salt spray etc. Its not worth to do that. I done that to my dad's hi fi now he is so sad...been a notty boi...

[prec]

the speakers aint working!!! lol.. they are there as we are too lazy to clear them away.. pretty heavy..

anyway salt spray is reduced to bare minimum..

Hi prec,

Nice tank. Can show some pics of the side view? I think some of your rock are touching the side glass, that may result in problem when you clean you glass later.

Also, can try to catch the crabs at this stage when you do not have any shrimps or fish

Cheers.

[prec]

the rocks are not really touching the tank side glass.. thanks for the advice! heh. ok will be uploading more pics tonight!
