Is that the Pink 12g NC? lol

Nice rockworks especially the top most piece, very nice and purplish. You may want to consider more tiny snails later on...

Hi Jervismun,

Yes, its that super cheap Pink 12g NC. I am sure a lot of reefers who went Pasir Ris Farmway last week saw it.

The top most piece is Star Polyps, not yet open up, hence the purplish colour.

Will keep posting the progress. Meanwhile i welcome all comments / suggestions.

Hi Melvyn Tan,

So did you change the lights (the standard one provided is one 24W 6500K PL tube)? The normal ballast with starter - did you change it to electronic ballast? Did you add a splash guard to cover the fan and the ballast starter side?

Sorri to ask so many questions but the standard equipment they provided seem to be more for planted tanks instead of marine. Also if the starter and the fan is not cover, the salt splash may somehow damage it in a matter of time. Actually both the fans are drawing hot air out and not blowing in, so most have splash guard too.

Nice setup too!

Hey Maxstar,

That is so sterotype...Just because i want Regal tank and Clown fish, so become Dory and Nemo?

jervismun,

I would want maybe yellow tank, some goby. Basically i want my fish to be colorful. Damsel fishes are colourful but heard that they are fierce. Any other recommendations?

Based on my limited experience with LS, I would say a Six Line Wrasse... I really like mine, it moves around curiously, pecks LR for food and I love the lime green tail. The 2 Spot Goby is extremely interesting too, but only introduce slightly later, so that your tank can offer more food/rubbish for the Goby. Although the baby Blue Tang is nice... but ur 12g might be too small.

Bro... Your tank is too small for tangs... Can go for gobies or blennies...

jervismun & Terryz_ ,

Ok noted, seems like i cant get a regal tank. Cos at first tot i can get a small size one. At most when it grows too big for my tank, then i can pass it to friend's tank which definitely can hold it. (Hint hint to Maxstar) :whistle
