Tiny piece of the ocean in my room

[sunrisesunset]

Still waiting to get some nice pieces of LR to fill in the space.

Anyway gave the X-factor food thing a try today, just fed the fishes wasn't extremly impress with it. No feeding frenzy like wat some of the bros here says. BUt it alright stuff i guess hahahha.

[cjh]

the island not very small leh.. takes up bout half the tank space already.. juz dat it seems not enough.. hahaha.. another 2-3 pieces it would be just right.

haha just like mine when i 1st do it... lol...

y not create a 2 little valley?? lol... just a suggestion...

I might i gues it very much depends on the rock i can get. But i really like the over hanging thing hahha.so probably slope down then end with the over hang rock

No chiller?

[sunrisesunset]

nope no chiller. Tank's in my room doesnt get any sun light in the day pretty much cool in the day ard 28 degree even during hot days.

Lights comes on only at night ard 7 plus. Usually room is air-conditioned at the time temp dun really go beyond 28 degree even with lights and no air con

[sunrisesunset]

Anyway there is no way i can get a chiller for my tank so it will have to do as it is now.

The temp i mentioned in the above post was when the tank was still a 2ftx1ftx1ft

So I guess with almost twice the volume of water now the temp rise during lighting period will be even lesser

The highest temp my tank recorded was ard 28 degree that was when there is no air con and the lights have been on for 6 hours. So i guess it shouldn't have a problem hosting LPS.

The clam is doing well for a few months already so I guess that a pretty good indicator

I guess this is my chiller now hahah

[sunrisesunset]

Any way i need to ask i just switch the tank over from my old tank using old rock and some of the old water. SHould i be doing water change this week so sohould I let the tank settle more first??

[KennethK]

I guess u could change alittle.

Feeding time:

u got hungry fishes!!!

[hammy]

i like all your fishes . very colourful, vibrant and healthy .

in fact i gave up most of the fishes so that i can control my bioload easily, so tempted to buy fishes sometimes....

Thx hammy.

This little devil is preventing my gonio from opening. (thoes white patches are salt stain on the glass not on the clown )

Any one has any idea how to stop this guy from disturbing my gonio.

[godzillaliu88]

think the gonio will get use to clown brushing against it after some time.

I guess u're right seems like it has gotten use to it

A nice pic of the clown and gonio!

bro nice scaping. if your filtration can handle it, dont add any more rocks. its nice to see a tank with a big and clean sandbed. there are some nice corals that do well on the sandbed.

furthermore adding more rocks will make your water volume much lesser which isnt very good and worst still its a nano. too packed a nano with a small water volume is a big challenge

geee. i din look at it that way at all from the start!

excellent point there. guess its alrite to get 2-3 more peices of small-medium LR, nothing else too much>

Hmmm i didn't think from that perspective too hahah. But i definitly will add some live rock in (probably a little bit) cos i like branching LPS and they will look better on rocks than on sand bed i guess

thx for the advice will keep it in mind

[bgrking]

wow nice tank you've got there! =)

[jervismun]

If you do not have a SEIO stuck in such a strategic location... I would recommend introducing a small Anemone... your Clownie will prefer it over the Gonio

Haha i might do it once i upgrade to a hydor korlia. Current the clown really thinks the gonio is an anemone. It will snatch food and bring it to the gonio and release it there hahaha.

Added in 2 of these from AM. Other one is hiding behind some rock. :

Went reborn today and couldn't resist buying the hammer not very green (greener than wats shown in the pic though) but price was ok for such a big picece:

[sunrisesunset]

FTS after some minor rescape to fit the hammer in
