SOHO reef

[Reefzzz]

You can see some growth in the algae on the sandbed if you compare the shots one week ago

This is fantastic news to me as she is my second favorite one

Wah bro, your refugium doing very good leh...

ya I miss my planted tank with all the bubbleing effect...

I personally don't like BB as they appers unnature to me... You can try add in 2 packs of live sands & grow some carpet forming marcoalgaes like a lagoon concept.

I'm very excited to know more algae loving reefer

I've always thought that green looks wierd in a marine environement but i saw some pictures, can actually make the thing alot more vibrant. if you use MH, i think ur macro will bubble like crazy and thats actually quite ugly.

I think bubbles look nice only on a Riccia bed! oooooooooh! my favourite!

hey where u get ur macro algae ah? the green ones. some shops selling one TINY piece at $8 i think thats quite crazy.

Can You recognize your tank

[johntanjm]

EH!? where did u get that pic from man? hahahahahha! actually green can be quite a refreshing color to add to a marine tank eh. do they spread? i'm don't want to add anymore rocks into the tank redi. I'm hoping for something that will GROW into a jungle!

[jervismun]

Haha... kinda scary actually... TURTLE tank

Is easiler for them to spread in a refugium... unless your main tank is fishless

You are the enemy of algae

I will seed 20 different kinds of algaes into your tank during our gathering

Hehe... I believe by then my refugium will be ready... I will leave a large area empty for your macros

[johntanjm]

yeah bro Y, the fish will nip everything of esp if tangs. somehow i feel that the switch from planted to marine is a one way thing. much as I love planted tanks, no matter how hard i try to imagine, i cannot see myself going back to it.

Hey ask you all ah, i just observed this strange thing. my rock is encrusted with coraline. then suddenly overnight there's one thick line of white just cut right across. its really white white kinda white. bleaching? what could have caused it?

PS: sory for no pix lately. all the cameras in the house on overseas deployment. haha! aunty go holiday take the D20, sister go work take my lumix.

This may sounds crazy... how about a coralline algae munching worm? Munching as it moves hence the straight white line... and this worm is kinda huge hence the "thick" line

Very strange indeed, I've never encountered it before... maybe the masterworks of snail or worm, try to post a pix under disease treatment/ parasite control for the expert here to diagnose...good luck

another shot

[johntanjm]

and there's more! don't u love those sunnies. when i got them they were almost thin to the bones. after feeding they've fattened up a little.

I don't know whats with the white line man. apparently on closer inspection, its not just one part. quite a few rocks got that. its been a while redi. Just that some white parts got new coraline grow over. the major ones, still white
