tank kinda just settled down... bought the black sand from aquamarin, mix it with the black sand i used to use from iwarna... prefer the one from iwarna, the black colour is darker and nicer...

I think just give it some time la, my experience with Gobies in my Girl's FOWLR is that they tend to be timid initially. After a week or so when they acclimatize they will be out scouting in the open.

Just my 2 cents! groupwavereversed.gif

If a man could beat his own fantasy. Then to only breed in captivity. Then its pointless.

Genesis 1:20

And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

been busy with my studies the past few weeks,

finally found time to take some pictures of my tank...

i've slowed down alot on stocking compared to the past...

so nothing new... nothing special...

just an update for myself to see,

to keep track of my own reefing journey...

cant add much stuff anymore...

Kiko. Nice colorful collection you got there.

The tank is coming up nicely.

On the radioactive birdnest, its rarely available as a colony. Never seen in recent SPS shipments.

But no worry, they grow fast!

And you certainly have space for more small frags. I may have some that u will be interested. :)

Your mind is like a parachute. It only works when it is open.

thats what i heard as well...

sad that such a hardy/beginner SPS, is not commonly seen in SPS shipments..

its beautiful as one big colony..

and yes, i notice some growth for my frag from the time i got it since Day 1... :D

LOL.. Empty sandbed? Looks more spacious ah?

Wah, For Sps I really not sure? During Walt Smith Shipment maybe?

just dont like too many stuff on my sand bed..

and i have a feeling my maxspec 110W not strong enough to reach my sandbed 2ft down...

zoas place at the bottom tend to have "long necks",

in fact i realise the zoas on my frag rack (which is closest to the surface),

are doing the best..

looking realllllly sweeeee! :)

thank you bro!

hope to meet you some day around LFS :cheers:

swimming around the live rocks,

positioning itself in every tiny hole it finds in the LR,

and pops in and out like how a jawfish would do when its in the sand..

very cute fella.. haha..
