The list is quite short already. lol

My tank should be able to sustain.

I am a stingy feeder.

I guess if you dose Bio Clean, it should be ok. But take note that Tangs are really poop machines. How small is a mini yellow tang? And will it stay small throughout its life??? :whistle

My Setup:

3x2x2 tank with IOS

Equipment List:

Chiller: Artica 1/5HP

Chiller Pump: Sicce 4000

Return Pump: OR3500

Skimmer: Deltec APF600

Wavemaker: Tunze Wavebox/2x Hydor K2/SCWD wavemaker

Lights: DElighting 2x150W MH + 2x 39W T5 Atinic

FR: Skimz

FR Pump: Atman AT-104

'Thanks thomas for the compliment. . No all tangs will eventually outgrow the nano tank.

Will try to keep one as long as I can.

The former one from CF would not eat and starved to death. Got a replacement from a fellow reefer today.

Hope he will do well in my tank.

Wow, your rescaping is a success! Really pleasant looking and practical, you'll have no problems keeping it nice and clean :)

I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate.

And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it.

thanks Bino.

discipline in husbandry chores still key though.

gotta keep reminding myself :)

Not sure if it is the massive change of water or change of medias or use of BioClean or removal of live rocks and live sand, the water seems ultra clean even after 4 days. Used to have an algae film on the tank wall on the 3rd day usually. You know you did something right when you walk pass your tank and unknowingly get mesmerized by it and ended by staring at it for the next tens of minutes :)

I am now switching on the skimmer only in the night for approx 8 hrs.

MaxSpect G2 110W (Review Part 1)

The printed label has been replaced with label tags. Looks much nicer.

G2 now comes with a light stand and hanging kit!

The connector seems to be of better finishing & slightly larger now.

G2 now has one large fan instead of two and guess what? The fan is fairly silent! Awesome.

The LED driver still sports the same look over its predecessor.

My CREE White LEDs

Blue LEDs.

New Feature on G2 - Moonlight

I might be getting a lot of queries about the difference between 150W MH 20k and the current 110W MaxSpect LED module.

So here's a picture which might speak a thousand words.

The camera setting for these 2 shots are exactly the same.

No editing done on both photos.

Under MH. notice the shadowy areas.

I cannot see my PPE zoas.

Under the MaxSpect G2 LED.

Will post more thoughts over the next few days.
