i actually spell them as cypestrea. hahaha...

the FTS is quite crap actually... the frag racks are blocking different colour/layers of monti plates at the back of the tank.

am taking this holiday to clean up the frag rack and keep the main tank neater.

few months ago wilson told me. "Ky i am going to try out SPS slowly"

He didnt really try it out slowly but look at how wonderful and stable his tank is now. Really is a sign of if you put in good effort and husbandry, everything is possible in this hobby.

My poor maintenance killed off all my crabs! Its a good thing too but not a good way to follow :D

Brown SPS > Kinder Surprise

White SPS = Kinder Surprise after expiry date

Assumption killed the dinosaurs, they didnt have test kits.

Hahaha. This is hilarious. But quite true also. I recalled that once, together with you and Ray, we went l

LFSing. Both ray and I went crazy over rics. While u were very focused on just SPS. I couldn't understand why? How could u not be interested (not the least bit) to at least look and see.

But now, that I'm somewhat, in your shoes. I kinda figured out why!!

Btw, it was just barely 5 months since I started SPS, I'm still in the beginner stage, probably went a little overdrive looking at the past few pictures. And tempted to dig out old photos showing "before and after"..

One learning is placement of the coral according to their individual needs (light/flow/competition)..

Resistance is futile, come join us in the dark side.

Bro, no new stuff. Dunno what to update. Maybe just a FTS to end the year. :)

Brudder Wil, how is this piece doing now ? What is the name ? Hope to get a frag. From Dr Ced ?

Thanks.

Hi Mike, the frag parts are recovering. I do have some micro-frags. I deposited one small piece at the clinic in case something happens to mine. Hahaha. Will pm you my contact. :)

Top-down shots do bring out better colouration! No regrets doing up this holding tank.

Anyone likes to exchange? (Last pix, only golden face available for exchange... blue face have limited polyps)

Leather Leather, simple coral comes with nice colouration (light greenish colour)

post-13920-0-24196000-1294160218_thumb.j

Hmm.. the colouration on this clam doesn't seemed to come out right... still trying to figure how to get the bronze/pinkish colour. Any tips for me? Maybe I must shoot in 'RAW' format huh??

Noticed that the 'inside' of the clam has a luminous colouration.
