Well i think i will be going for crushed coral and very limited LR.

Why crushed coral bro? not scared of detritus?

I will be using zeovit thus going for size 2-4mm substrate.

Try caribsea aragonite substrate? I think the black one from reef depot looks rather cool.

cool how much the cleaner cost u bro?

[zorden]

Wah...if you can leave most of the sandbed open, can keep a lot of interesting fish. Think of flying gunards, sea moths, dwarf lionfish.. even solefish.. or even the wobbegong shark at LCK which eats mollusks.

Flying Gunards size around 40cm to 90cm.

sea moth is better for me. Max length : 7.6 cm SL male/unsexed

Hi Zorden,

The flying gunards that usually come in are rather small, usually only 2-3" in length. Ahbeng used to bring in 2-3" solefish, beige body with blue stripes.

[zorden]

Well the back panel is normal glass but overall the low iron glass got some kind of light bluish tint at the side, ofcoz once i switch on my t5, the bluish tint will be gone. well if u have seen ELOS glass over at reefcentral, or other type of starphire glassmaker, some of the tank edges is very clear.

ei your prelims is 2-3 months later. u better work hard for your papers.

give up reefing until completion of your exam. that what i did. well but u can give up in 1-2 months, when my tank is ready and sell your gems to me at a kill.

[Solo77]

so u got yr contractor to use a more secured way to hang yr ATI? keep the contact incase i need in future...hehe.

[zorden]

He just construct a canopy for my ati to rest on it. the canopy is hang up the ceiling. i will find some facade to cover the cable. well its not 2. its 4 cable.

during those days, i will be looking at reefcentral and drinking my kopi and mugging away. u need to clear pbf orh. don be like my friend whose from AnF yet cant clear POA for yr 1 and y2. now its her 5 th year and going to be 6yr as she got 6 modules to go.

reefing can wait.

[ReDDeviLs]

so thats the back panel pic?

as i know low iron glass got slight blue,

but i hearsay true starphire are very difficult to get now as stock is greatly in demand. also, in some situation, the starphire glass is almost clear.

but some local tank maker not very honest mah.

then again im no expert jus hear say from tank makers.

well i cant find the picture of the very clear glass tank edges i saw @ reefcentral but its like acrylic.

Boss, my canopy look like this. the ati is resting on the ledge of the canopy.

Well i can hide the ballast the those plugs at the canopy but i will extend the edges to prevent the ATI PM from falling. (well i abit kiasi)

[vt_snowman87]

10-tube ATI, my dream lightset.. power.. definitely looking forward to a power-packed sps tank..

[zorden]

well its actually 4 + 6 not a total 10 ati pm. incase of any of the lights failure, there is still the other half.
