Hello reefers! I'm looking to make a comeback after 14 years. Any recommendations on where to get tanks? I'm looking towards a 60cm cube size.

nice LR stacking. i can never achive such hight when stackin mine. :bow:

would it be too late if i say that if your back glass tank to add or paint color?eg ocean blue,dark blue or black? imho, the back ground color can gv more "the depth look" to ur tank n at the same time the LR can be more err how to say..."stand out" or looks more natural? :D

haha too late liao ... but i might be shifting the tank sometime .... maybe when that happens ... i can change the background... haha..

black background will simply accentuate all the things inside the tank... like stand out... i find that black has the best effect, blue sucks..

Yes black background is the best... except for Black Tangs :cry2:

my firegoby is in hiding today... was out the whole day ... came home to find only my rainford goby( which has started to feed btw )... i also got another twinspot hog yesterday .. this fella did better than the previous one.. started feeding in a few hours... and eating like a pig today and already comfortable in the tank... took the previous one a few days to stabilize... have a good feeling about this one.. haha..

bro is the D50 good?

ummm cant give u any constructive comments coz im very very noob at DSLRs ... but its quite easy to pick up ... even a goon like me got the hang of it ... haha.. but i think the modes given no use for reef photos ... u want good shots must tweak here and there for your own settings then can manage to take nice photos...

oh and bro jervis... cam is not mine ... haha :ph34r: .... :upsidedown:
