[Digiman]

Get a prosumer camera if you are not a very technical person.. DSLR can get very troublesome for you and if you dun really use it much it will be waste of the money and the camera as you wun get to use some of the functions...

Thanks, u're right, i should jux get a semi-pro. A DSLR in my hand is as good as a throw-away.

wah lao! i still have not seen mine yet lo!

Dracula can hide for a week. Be patient, it'll suddenly appear and once it appears it'll be less likely to hide again.

Cool fishes u got ther bro... Nice tank too...

Thank U.

Cool fishes i agree, but tank i feel can be improved.

My scape is terrible now, i hate it!

I hope so bro! It's so sad to see such a lovely fish hiding or even dying somewhere and you not know about it! :X

Wah digiman... That's one heck of a collection you have there. The rockscape isn't bad la.. it's pretty cool actually and the colors of the corals.. looking GOOD. Really nice and colorful tank you have there.

Thank you.

The easier way for me instead of changing the scape is to cover the rockscape with corals. The best thing about LPS is they are so colourful and can fill up the tank v fast and make it v colourful in the shortest time, like a candy store.

get one or 2 more draculas if your wallet allows...coz these fishes are bolder in a group with a dottyback in your tank

some nice corals at the bottom will make your tank super rock n rollin'

Adding one more dracula if they are both males will they not fight? The draculas at AM are running out already, hard to get cheap ones next time.

Thanks for the suggestions, i'm slowly trying to cover the bottom sandbed with corals too. Jux added an open brain and a cynarina to the right hand side. Scolymia and acans are nice but too ex for me.

[Digiman]

Anyone good with camera can tell me why when i took pic slightly more top down the result appears bluer compared to the one above taken from front of the tank?

[TayHongSiang]

u can add some soft corals like shrooms, zoas and yumas...these can be place side by side with your brains at the bottom...

I know what aHsiang means but somehow.... the last part of placing it side by side with "your brains" at the bottom.. tickles me to no end..:lol:.

really colorful corals you have there digi.

Happy CNY.

I took over LCF's old 3ft tank and two days back jux transferred everything from my 2.5ft to the new tank.

Following is a FTS this morning:

It's v orange becos the tank is only running on one tube of 24W white T5. Evening time will be switched to the tube of 24W blue T5.

[Digiman]

A few more pics...

The equipments are v simple, only one tunze 6025 wavemaker, running on one RIO 17 HF main return, one tube aquazonic T5, and a 2nd hand Teco 1/8 chiller.

[Digiman]

Next time i'll take a pic with the blue T5 on only.

Nope the lotilia is sold to marinebetta who has a nano tank to take better care of the fish. It's in good hands now.

The fishes in the tank are my pride and precious. The corals are secondary.

My updated stocklist if anyone is interested:

Thiellei clownfish

Latezonatus clownfish full bar CB

Helfrichi goby

Ventralis anthias x 2

Pseudochromis tapeinosoma

Pseudoplesiops rosae

Johnsoni wrasse Pair

Terelabrus Sp. (maldive)

Bluestripe pipefish

after CNY when we get our rusty flame angels and my melanistic BLACK longnose butterfly, it will be even better.

yes.

readers incase you're wondering,

there's word goign around that all fishes from mainland hawaii might be banned. so better get your hawaiian endemics now before there's no chance.

i'll make a thread.

[Digiman]

Ok i on the blue T5 and here's another shot tat depicts a more accurate colour:

I'll get a better camera soon, now using hp camera so v blur.

Marcovan, can u spot the three LPS u gave me in the picture? Thanks for the corals, they make filling up my tank even faster.

[Digiman]

Some side shots where the fishes can be seen.

why does your johnsoni look so red? is it flashing

[tunicate]

I like the way your LR props up most of your corals like a 3-legged bridge. Can share how you manage that?

[Digiman]

why does your johnsoni look so red? is it flashing

Yes it's flashing. Cos i on blue lights. I normally on in the evening and whenever blue light is on it'll flash. So it get use to it and whenever i on blue light it'll flash for a while.
