From the FTS means u have changed to the new bulb. So bluish.

Ya lor... bulb is bluish... Still prefer a more yellowish spectrum as it will appear more natural...

You should have given me and save me some $$ from buying new bulbs.. :P:P

your tank is where i get the inspiration from, bro. :idea: ..your tank's depth and the yellowish shimmering effects mimic just exactly like when u go snokering..

Looking back at the 3 small frag of SPS in tank pic 1 eight mths ago and comparing to the current pics 2 below. the SPS & zoas had really grown... got a sense of satisfaction. Guess this is why we are all still addicted to this hobby despite the hardcore work of maintainence.. :P

8 mths before....

Nice.

me just started trying SPS coral, hope to gain the same result as urs. :P

Bro, all i can saw is that you are way too humble... With your ###### years experience in this hobby, your SPS venture will not be a problem..

My SPS are those easy to keep type.. not really need much of requirements.. :P

Aiya bro, i had actually give up on taking pics of my tank. My phone camera cannot seems to be able to take viewable pics... <_<

But cannot put all the blame on the camera la. One of the SPS is yellowish-brown milli, another one brown acro with green polpys, blue-tip acro with brownish body & purple acro.. :P

All are the original residents. I am happy as long as they are growing. In fact, the milli in the background already had all the tips out of the water... interesting...Will be interesting to see how they continue to grow from there :P

A long long time w/o update. Been under alot of pressure from family members to decom the tank :cry2: as the heat generated by the 1/4 artica chiller right in the middle of my small living room is too much for my newborn to take, especially during noon. Arrival of my little darling n departure of hobby.

A last photo before i sell off all my corals.

Came up with the fowlr idea instead of decomming everything as i just bring myself to let go of my favourite pair of true perc. i think my little darling like them also. hehe. Will just be keep the pair of perc and half a dozen 1.5" YT. The chiller will be set to 30 degree to prevent it from kicking it toooo often. Will just activate 2 T5 from my belove Giessmann light set. The other 2 T5 n MH will remain off. MH may occasionally on it for 1-2 hrs to keep the mechanism working when no one is home :evil:

With all these in place, i guess i am still in the hobby.. :yeah:

Thought u're decomming everything... phew... good to hear that you're still going to keep it fowlr. (maybe you can try softies, it'll brighten up the tank.

Btw, can i ask if u'r using 6055? or are those 6045?
