Surely there is always the living room! ;)

Can always tear down a few nice walls :D

Hehe... unfortunately not as easy as that... considering my place has been renovated (move in) less than 3 years ago... don't think it's possible to move things again... unless lucky enough to find a bigger home (for me and my Nemo) :lol::lol::lol:

If you can afford the width, go for 4ft width.

I have seen a 4x4x2 tank by a lady reefer which till date still inspire me! The depth make the scaping so natural to enable many hideout and hangover. :bow:

Bro cannot afford the width :(

Wow! A 4ft cube by a sis?!? Damn... she must be a tall person (with long arms)... scaping is definitely gonna be impressively real with that kinda depth but maintaining it can be a "brokeback" and "brokearm" session <_<

Bros and sis... what do you think of my below plans :bow:

I am going to receive my Aquatronica soon and I am planning to use it to control my Teco RA240 (TW/4) chiller (225W) instead of relying on the Teco's built-in thermostat. I believe this can offer much more flexibility to my tank especially during day time.

Here's my plan:

No light period (night and early morning) - 26ºC to 27ºC

2 x T5 (blue period) - 26ºC to 27ºC

6 x T5 (white + blue period) - 27ºC to 28ºC

By having the (6 x T5 period) 1ºC higher will help me lessen the burden of my chiller. Will this affect my tank inhibitants? I am hoping that this will be a double-edge sword... conserving energy and be able to mimic nature closer, as I believe the water temperature of the ocean will easily rise 1ºC to 2ºC during day time.

Another question is... my Teco chiller will kick-in when the temperature is reaches 1.5ºC above the set temperature. Do you suggest me continue with this 1.5ºC diff setting or go with 2ºC instead. I learned from some bros that frequent kicking-in will consume much more energy as to compared to longer running process... I am feeding my chiller with an Aquabee 3000 (submerged in my IOS, so quite a bit of travelling and head loss).

A bro also told me it's better to rely on thermo probe placed in the main tank than to rely on the thermostat in-built into a chiller as the readings will be more accurate and representative of the main tank actual temperature.

So basically what the Aquatronica does is to allow my chiller to be completely off (together with the thermostat) until the computer activates (switch on) the chiller externally... brilliant isn't it?!? :lol:

Boby polyps forming on the outer rings of my Xenia... a good indication of growth... those purple "star polyp look-alike" at the bottom of my Xenia is spreading fast and I still have yet to ID them :unsure:

The Green Leather on the right is finally hairy again... after 2 days of being "glossy botak head" ;)

Is there such thing as non-stinging Anemone? Coz I've observed that my RBTA is not affecting its tankmates at all... you see the green Zoos on top? The Hammer doesn't seem to be affected also althouth their tentacles come into contact sometimes...

The RBTA is still quite far from my Lime Green Gonio (my favourite coral)... if it intimidates my Gonio... I will act <_<

Another pix... my Pink Zoos also not affected at all... you see how my RBTA's tentacles rest on top of my Zoos? ;) Bubbles also doesn't seem to care much... nevertheless I shouldn't take chances... will monitor it very closely for the next couple of hours... any sign of stress, I shall intercept :(

Don't you guys agree that this piece of RBTA is such a fine specimen... I really hope I don't have to give it away... perhaps to the kind bro who adopted Big Mama :lol::lol::lol:

Probably my RBTA deserves the award "MISS FRIENDSHIP" :lol::lol::lol:

How to prevent the anemone from moving?

There's no way unfortunately... but as long as it is not creating too much havoc... I will let it remain in the tank... it's so so beautiful :lol: I got a feeling once it settles down in a spot it likes... it will remain there for a while :)

Agree with bro Jervis,anemone doent stop moving..it maybe stop at a spot for a week or 2,or maybe longer but in the end it will still moves to another spot,unless its a carpet anemone :D
