Love it when a plan comes together!

Me too its taken long enough :oops:

Let raise & charge our glasses to Fay.

Home from holiday tanks did good while I was away (14days) H crispa anemone had moved and killed one of my few sps corals in the main tank.

I had taken some rock out of the cube tank before I went and have ended up with bad cyno on the sand where it had been.

Colours stayed reasonable but as soon as I dosed again with reefbooster (which I didn’t get Teina to add anything apart from a bit of kalk in the top up twice)

I notice a difference to the colours.

All test stayed within range which was good

Nitrate I have got down to 15 which stayed stable while away.

Phosphates stayed stable on 0.01

I have decided to start dosing biodigest to see if I can reduce nitrates a bit more and try and kick the cyno in the butt.

It has taken a bit of effort to get the H cripsa in the correct position for flow because it is down the end with the streams seems to have settled now.

Everything else looking pretty good my green hammer coral top for growth.

See what I mean about cyno!! in the cube tank

Looks pretty cool even with the cyano.

Nice to see each and every coral looking so healthy!

Love the yellow sarcophyton, let it grow some more it will be a stunner!

Very nice fay, my tank seems to be following your footprints

That Atlantic tang is a stunner. Tank is also looking in top shape.

beautiful :bounce: :bounce:

massive

stunning,

beautiful,

have you ever had issues with all those clowns in the same tank?

Thanks for the lovely comments it’s nice to get a pat now and then

have you ever had issues with all those clowns in the same tank?

In the beginning I had issues that’s why we built the cube, but since we have upgraded with a bit more room they have learnt to live together.

i.e.: Maroons keep Clarks down their end with a reminder every now and then where the boundaries are.

The thing that tickles my fancy is the Nemos give mamma maroon the flick if she goes to close even thou she is massive compared to them it is amazing that they live in peace so close, before I rearrange the nemos anemone both anemones were nearly touching.

I was up to 1.30am last night cleaning the cube, blowing every thing with a power head and rearranging the stream to see if that makes a difference to the cyno.

Made some finishing touches to the rocks by the Nemos in the main tank.

The thing with photos it gives you the faults to design in the rock work etc.

Looks great Fay! You are the only one that sees the 'faults'!

How long have you been going? (with a marine tank that is! :lol: )

How long have you been going? (with a marine tank that is! )

Nearly five years I think I will have to ask Frogs mother how old she is I got into fish tank on her 70th birthday I remember taking her out to lunch with the rest for the family and then heading to the local fish shop because my son got me inspired he is into fresh water that's what I started with then progressed to salt six months later

Just worked it out 4years this October bloody hell that means I must have upgraded every year since I started

Thought it would have been longer than that!!

Must put up a photo of my first tank.

I'll book u in for an upgrade next year then

I'll book u in for an upgrade next year then

ha ha I am on a no spend!! Going to get that overdraft under control this year!!

I had already decided I have spent enough, now looking at what I have done in under four years I can see why the overdraft is out of control.

But if we win lotto I can think of heaps I could do e.g. turn the cube into a sps only tank, make the main tank 2.7 by 1mtr. di da di da di da :lol: There is no limit to my dreams

My sixline was in perfect health and now I can't find him

I am worried about my big bristle star does anyone know if they eat live fish?

I had this little guy for quite some time so pretty up set, he use to show off for me

what type/color is the star, i hear the greenish ones can eat small fish.

A friend of mine has a yellow one that ate a pretty big (and tough) damsel. Although, this star is HUGE!

This is a photo that was taken November 2004 so he is much bigger now

They can eat fish, however i doubt it would eat a sixline. did you check behind the tank as sixlines can jump out.

Yes I checked behind on top and everywhere no sign I have bracing to stop jumping on this tank and haven't had a problem.
