I cannot imagine taking phtos with flash for my tank... :angry2:

You must update us on how you maintain your tank in future, if it is indeed alot easier to clean off algae, and scratches can be kept to a minimal, I might just consider investing in acrylic for my future tank. (In the v. distant future...)

hmmm I used the exact same setting for the MH and LED.

did not do any WB setting. Cannot really be bothered.

Well... not yet at least. When you can't get the correct colours of your corals or fishes, that'll make you explore WB settings. :whistle

The clarity was very good right? and even at close sight, you will not feel giddy looking at the fishes. That's what I like most about acrylic.

Hey Comy, forgot to thank you for your help today.

Made it so much easier for me to hang my light.

I really have no adjectives to describe the services of Aquamarin - really awesome man.

My MP10 broke and I got a 1:1 replacement. One of the staff stayed near my place and Janet had her deliver the new MP10 to my place!

A full 10 for customer service. So here's the new pump

Mounted my ORP monitor and Vortech controller on the side of the cabinet.

Gotta get more 3M velcros to secure my PH monitor.

Bro are you planning to attach the sponge on your wet side assembly? Good to prevent fishes from getting sucked in, but bad for collecting all your sand, gunk, poop etc.

I did use it this time round. just do a bit more maint during my weekly WC. just an additional minute or so. not too difficult. Thats what I like about nano :)

Thinking of Chris's tank only make me feel the back ache already. Wonder how is he doing .....
