Terry's 3x3x2 Tank

[Terryz_]

Terryz u seen my NPS b4 rite, it is the blue seafan, common but prone to die.

I wasn't paying attention to nps at coral farm, just too much hassle to prepare the food, not to mention the many types of food to feed n lastly nutrient export.

I may try but I am ATM sourcing for rhyzo (pink) n supersun, before considering seafans

Oh that... I have one for months... Still doing good... Not as fluffy as before but it is opening up well...

Yeah, I am using like 4-5 dried food for the NPS, to give the coral a range of different micron of food... Nutrient export, Many are going into Bio Pellet and Carbon dosing... I am doing carbon dosing with vitamin C, it is working well for me...

Rhyzo iwarna and pinnacle have one last time I went...

[Terryz_]

My Scop Jawfish is out and feeding on Mysis...

[Terryz_]

Just added 50 ml of Biopellets by TLF... Will progressively add over the months...

[Terryz_]

200ml of biopellet in for 1 week...

No change in Nitrate yet...

Double up my carbon dosing to get the biopellet start working asap...

is it me or the lobster only 1 claw ???

[straydum]

mine was okay in terms of territorial aggression but i heard they are quite a threat to new wrasses or shrimps. excellent jumpers as well, thats how i lost mine

1 claw should be alot bigger then the other, something like this

[yikai]

terry.

all regal angel juveniles are bright yellow in colour.

even the grey bellied ones. it will grow into a grey belly one.

i've never seen a yellow belly one collected as juveniles before and i don't think they ever will. yellow belly one now only can get from Medan. Since red sea regals are almost extinct in the trade like my paucifasciatus butterflies.

[Terryz_]

It looks different from those grey belly juveniles I kept before which the color is not so distinct bright Dunno, maybe I am thinking too much..

Anyway, dun care it is grey or yellow belly, as long as it is eating and not eating corals.. I am happy, but juvenile is easier to wean on frozen and not eat corals..

It is a pistol shrimp.. of course it have a bigger claw. It snapped at me.. and the sound is very loud, much louder than randelli.

I refrain from getting big ones.. they are notorious... these small one are a bit more tolerant.. they are only 2 inch.. and I dun keep any shrimps.. lol..

Btw the two are hanging out in close proximity of each other, no chasing and aggression. Actually I read before that the male is actually more pink than female/juvenile.

And I kept a pair before, 1 pink and 1 yellow.. no fighting...
