after the chilli pepper mayhem, nothing else has changed.. all other SPS are still doing fine.. must have been vodka shock, as NO3 suddenly hit 0.. some pics to update.. those that are still doi

ah icic, good point.. actually I'm using a small submissive pump to generate the inflow instead of the designed air-pump (which has really low turnover), so I'll just monitor this pump, from the looks

i have that very same carpet! the multi-colored one it just went under the knife 3 weeks ago

both tanks are breathtaking and i like how the cabinet covers up everything except what is to be seen

hey bro straydum thanks! u have this same carpet? how was the 'surgery' session?? :)

wow insane! beautiful!

thanks bro Lemon, its not that insane actually.. still have some regrets and learning points from this setup.. next time have to improve on these points too.. :)

Awesome!!! Truly amazing! Beautiful corals, nice scape, neat carpentry work. I'm sure the CFO is starting to enjoy the hobby too?

Really must find time to see it personally.

bro Wilson, long time no see, paiseh still owe u a frag.. hehe.. CFO still not very interested, sadly.. hahaha..

beautiful maxi mini anemones... where did you get it from.. The blasto is looking very good as well

Love both tanks... i love the look man when everything's hidden!

hey thanks bro ketchup! those maxi minis, from Pinnacle, it was one of the few leftovers.. :)

WOW NICE tanks vincent!

ehh bro, did you rescape recently? lol

wa bro very very sharp your eyes.. yes, i did a minor rescape on the 2 sides.. just slight shift of fengshui.. :)

super nice and solid setup (looks like those shopping centre / aquarium tank!) reefers whom knows how to take care of SPS is , all the colouration / combi is awesome!

thanks bro onizuka for the compliments, but honestly, if u look closely, our tanks do not have any awesome or rare stuffs.. its probably just the cabinets thats making it look more 'professional'..

The dynamic duo never fail to amaze me... very very nice! Love the scape.

Just realized that you guys are keeping a DSB. Do you still perform water changes?

bro peace, thanks man, yes we are still keeping DSB, we felt it helped in our previous setup, so we continued using the same system.. water changes as per usual, 2 jerry cans twice a week, NSW from iwarna.. :)

Both tanks are very nice and I really like the aquascape of your tank.

thanks bro, aquascape is done using very big rocks with good shapes.. just really lucky.. :)

Wow with the addition of the cabinet, only one word can describe. SWEE!!!!!!!!

bro Gary, how was the holiday? hope it was a good one! thanks, yupps i agree the cabinets made a huge difference.. :)

You and your dad are giving me and ketchup future ideas of our tanks........ hhmm!!!

beautiful.. love the entire look when everything is closed up.

the deadliest poison is the injection of an idea.. "inception".. hehe.. thanks thanks.. :)

Do create a tank thread in Reefcentral and bring back some glory. YOu can do it!

thanks bro skinbone, but i really think our tanks is really not "RC" material.. hahaha cannot compare to the pros.. :)

Wonderful progression uncle Tonny and bro Vincent, a classic and examplary of talented, knowledgeable and hardwork sps reefer

bro cedric! many thanks for your compliments, both me and my dad still have alot to learn from senior reefers like you.. on close look, there's algae, suspended particles, sandstorms, and some fatalities due to STN, etc.. its not perfect.. yet.. :)

thanks bros and sis for all the compliments.. on closer look, our tanks have fatalities and our fair share of negligence.. we have lost fishes as well as SPS.. its not yet matured, and we're still trying very hard to fine-tune everything.. morever, this setup is only about less than 1 year old.. :)

stay tuned, more pictures coming soon!

Yo Vincent bro. Apologies for not collecting the frag earlier. If my work ends early tmrw, I'll make a trip to woodlands before heading home. :)

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