you've done an awesome job without sump tank.. thumbs up..

oh btw, how HUGE is that red prata? it looks magnificent..

[Underwater]

A very colorful tank with very nice corals. Envy envy...

[juuniz]

thanks for compliment..

it's very tiring to maintain compare to tank with sump.. but it's enjoyable and keep me busy during my spare time =p

the prata will expand like almost 20-22cm in diameter, the base is around 12-13cm

AMAZING!

Very nice tank. I see that the SPS frags have grown alot.

[peacemaker]

Very nice! Is your lightset shorter than the length of your tank? A little dim on the sides.

Looks like he is using the 3 ft t5 on his 4ft tank.

[juuniz]

absolutely correct.. i cant put 4ft fixture because of the skimmer.. if i get 4ft it would be hard for me to do something with the overflow box, so its a bit dim on sides.. anyway i dont put much corals there.. just sunnies and one cynarina(prata) there..

vt_snowman: i believe the digitata is very common in sps shipment.. and i'm from jakarta it would be difficult to get u a frag =p, the one which is quite rare is the suharsonoi

for those asking about pratas, i got in my local LFS for around 70SGD for red one, for bicolor is around 40SGD, and the tiny red on RHS around 30 SGD

the 1st time i got the bicolor one, its bleaching but now it already regain it colors.. =)

[juuniz]

some forgotten one:

frag from friends

<-- this one is now brownish u can see it in the mid left section , will try some zeospur to regain it colors

tiny doughnut in the corner

florida growing nicely

u can see the growth..

lovely

omg ur elegance coral is super zai!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Recently, have heard many news from LFS and forums everywhere that elegance corals are starting to decline in survival rate. They think its some kind of bacteria that shortens their lifespan. Anyway, ur elegance coral looks exquisite. One of my all time favourite corals. THUMBS UP for taking good care of it. Share ur secret leh I myself dun dare to try elegance.....maybe u could give us some tips BTW, elegance coral has a very potent sting...does it sting ur nearby corals? Be careful....it can sting u also. very painful..
