my little 2ft cube

[drato11]

The second one. Is this called superman monti? Read somewhere that superman monti is the term given to those with 3 colours. This one is onli 2 colours- Purple base with red polyps. Confused by all these terms.

[drato11]

Latest full tank shot, abit of rearrangement after purchasing the sps.

The base of the sps is so huge it looks real ugly and unnatural.

The monti was swee. Ur tank getting more and more colorful

[KennethK]

Ha! From AM i suppose. Yes second is superman. The base is okie as monti is encrusting type of sps. U can pluck it out if u like too.

like the multi colour of the tank now. Think the clams helps in the contrast of colours. Previously it's all green n red, at least now got blue.

No more space in my tank liao....

see the original base of the monti when i got it yest. Filled with disgusting green nuisance algae. Overnight, my sally lightfoot crab cleared the 2 rocks of all algae! now the base rock is sparkling clean, as can be seen from the full tank shop pic.

Side view shot. Just changed one of my Actinic blue tube to white tub. Now running on 3 white, 1 actinic. Afraid the sps do not have sufficient light if using 2 white 2 blue. Somehow, the tank looks strangely white. Still prefer the bluish look.

From wat i observe, montis dun really like strong current.

Bro... Superman is blue base with red polyps... This is the pseudo-Superman monti...

[drato11]

very colorful.

and the coralline...

this was the original LR when i just bought it. Tink the initial few patches of the coralline helps to "seed" the rocks.

Bad news is in recent 1wk or so, can see some of the coralline "receding" away.... dunno why leh.

I have 2 x Sand Dollars, 2 x Sand Shifting stars. That's all the cleaning crew i have. I don't stir the sand bed or such, just leave it to the sand dollars and stars to shift them.

[cjh]

yo bro!! rescape liao ar??

[drato11]

damn it... came back home today to find the same acan drop again and landed on the echinatas. This time it came off as the loser.... lotsa polyps melted.

[drato11]

My other green acan. Somehow i tink the colour faded quite a bit. Anyone can suggest how to improve the colouration of acans?

[drato11]

my biggest polyp of ric. It's just a single mouth polyp, but its about 2.5" in diameter!

[drato11]

think the rainbow likes the position it's in. The polyps are always open!

[drato11]

The pseudo-superman's polyps doesn't open as well as the rainbow. Wonder if it's becos the flow is stronger on its side. Polyps always looks half open onli..

[drato11]

my staghorns' polyps are opened, but seems that it's browning out. Maybe the nutrient level is too high. The bright blue tip also seemed to be turning whitish oredi... sianz

[drato11]

my fav corner... the rics garden.... closeup of the rics

[jervismun]

Wow... after seeing your pix... I wanna go FULL SPS liao

[drato11]

my green prata. It was close to dying a few months back, all skeleton exposed, can't eat anything. Now it's recovering very well. It's becoming fleshy again, just that it's lost all its colour. hope i can bring back the green in it! Hoping for the best!
