kept my water parems up...

was gonna get SPS, but

then found out N03 test kit bit out of whack

read 0ppm, but new test kit read more than 50ppm!!

so now wait lor....

upgrading to AquaC skimmer...

doing water changes

also stopped buying corals cos of my IDIOT dancing shrimp!!!

keep eatimg my mushies and lps

waiting for them to die nbefore getting corals

think a few months time lor....

if not will don my mask and hunt them

the MH mostly for the clams...

[bum]

final shot...

anyone else got this camera?

on loan...was thinking of getting, but kinda bulky, no?

[Dispar_Anthias]

hey your rockwork is really suitable for sps

[Trigger Queen]

that is A LOY of LR. Great looking tank! Once the SPS comes in, the colours will be stunning.

[bum]

SPS on top...where the streams are...

some LPS nearer the bottom where its calmer.

thats what i plan too...

but N03 so high....

hopefully when i start skimming more...

then trap the dancers...

the buggers very smart....seem to know when something is not right,

never enter my traps so far

[BarraCudaTM]

I have a F717 too

[reefer guy]

nice tank bum..... no wonder u gave up the scwd to me, got tunze's running ur current ...

would love to see it in person man!!!!

[onghm]

Hey Bum,

I like your rockworks!

Great looking tank!

And beautiful pictures!

Since camera is on loan, quick quick take more pictures before returning

I like the way u place your cocoworm among the octo.

[FuEl]

Wow...can't imagine how much you have spent on the rock alone..such good quality rock!

Hmmm...I worry about that anemone though...I have a feeling the foot of the anemone might actually upset the deep sand bed. Maybe can replace it with a substitute like a plate coral (heliofungia)? These look identical if not nicer compared to anemones...and definitely easier to keep.

Heh...you NO3 problem same as mine...got a shock when I bought a salifert. LoL! Can try floating a basket with some caulerpa in your main tank to help with nitrate export.

Nice tank! Your rock scape really looks natural

[Chris]

Bum,

Lots of potential. Nice long tank. Your rock workis very suitable for an AT!

My salifert Nitrate always show about 30ppm. My algae in refugium grows like mad but salifert always show 30ppm.???

Nah now everybody is all going for AT, no fun........ Go for sohal

[Chris]

yes, the long space in front of the rock will be perfect for the sohal to show off its swimming skill.

It will look elegant in there but wait are we getting

[bum]

If you want achille tang, they are few nice ones at pac mari** and their red sea shipment is coming not usre if its today or what so you maybe expecting some sohal.....

[Achilles Tang]

Bum... your lights seems to be rather high up.. you gonna lose a fair bit of intensity... anyway to lower them slightly?

Wow.. your tank has changed since a lot since the last time... I was there.

[bum]

due to the space constraints...

it was already a challenge to put up the current lamps.

planning another 250 in the centre.

heh heh...

hopefully you guys won't have to come over under

those circumstances again!

[Achilles Tang]

One in the centre? I don't think you should do that... the centre brace!!

You would be better off just moving your 2 lamps closer to the centre so the overlap will cover the centre.

Are you planning to keep SPS soon?
