Sigh... one of my firefish decided to kamikaze today... found it on the floor. I told one of my china operators, and she replied "你的魚很帅!".

I've always wanted to get the HOB DIY refugium going, but laziness caused delay after delay.

I needed to solve the splashing sounds created by the hang-on filter, which can be an issue if its too loud. So I was lying in bed thinking about it last night... and I thought of killing 2 birds with one stone: make a scrubber!

So from this ghetto looking fuge...

[peacemaker]

To this...

[peacemaker]

I've seeded it with the nuisance green hair algae that have been plaguing my tank for a long time, so hopefully it'll work. At least, it solved my noise concerns. The cheato goes into the filter compartment.

[peacemaker]

100% water change plus cleaning all the nuisance algae is a back-breaking job, even for a nano...

The results are, of course, very satisfying.

Some zoa photos from the recent US shipment... still not doing very well.

[peacemaker]

Other zoas that are thriving...

[peacemaker]

This frag had obvious visible growth. When I got it from Sis Ming, it was in 4 separate tiny frags on the same rock. As you can see, they are starting to grow inwards and joining up as a bigger frag. Such visual growth is very encouraging for me.

[peacemaker]

Some shots of my main zoas rock.

[peacemaker]

I love blues...

[peacemaker]

Yuma corner... my yumas hardly grow... about the same size as I bought them. I have not tried bro vt_snowman87's method of target feeding mysis... I'll do that once I upgrade.

[peacemaker]

Shrooms are still around, just kinda relegated a little in the favourites category... They love to migrate all around the tank, and with each re-scape, I lose some.

Couldn't take a good photo of the coco worm as the shrimp decided to get some attention...

[peacemaker]

I've glued these branching frogspawns together (green tip, tan body x2 heads, green body, purplish tips x4 heads) to make a bigger bunch. Call it a housing upgrade for the clowns...

[peacemaker]

FTS. Well... still messy... very much cleaner, but messy. Not much of scaping, and lots of frags lying on the tank bottom. It should do for now.

[vt_snowman87]

bro! lovely! very very beautiful FTS.. and those zoas are doing well in your tank..

btw, the placement of the frogspawn is brilliant.. looks damn good..

[peacemaker]

Hey, thanks! I need to keep them clear so they don't sting my zoas. Looks like a coconut tree where the 2 clowns can dance all they want... *plays indian music*

I bought them both from Iwarna, maybe a year apart? I like it because its really small, and the 1st one had amazing survivability (previous branching corals didn't do well under my care, way before this tank was set up).

NICE NICE NICE!

Love the Blues (zoas and mushies).

I've got some light blue zoas (about 10 polyps) but unfortunately, not ready for fragging yet... Trying to let them grow more before i start to do exchanging.

But if u ever with to sell them, let me know.

Thanks! I plan to grow them to a bigger colony before fragging. If you are interested in reds, I have 2 available. Let me know if you want them.

Sigh... it's tanks like this that makes me wanna go smaller instead of upgrading. Karlo's tank from RC, currently entering Feb 09's nTOTM contest.

[yikai]

[Firestarter]

I wonder what lights he is using.

Peacemaker, you got any mushroom frags that you want to let go? Hehe.

He's using 70W MH with DIY Pendant. Click on the link above to view his tank in detail.

I might sell the 2 rocks to clear space. Will let you know once I've decided.
