Guccivera's leather and angel tank


Guest

Recommended Posts

During my years in src and reefing I've always make a mistake everyone had made before. That was throwing all the fishes into the tank without reading.

In the present I've actually off my chiller and let it run fanless. And decided to keep only leather , angel and some wrasse and tangs due to their ability to acclimate with warmer water. My advise anyone who read this thread not to follow my ways as my house is not hotter than orchard road during the afternoon as there're many tree around.

Long story short I've one algae scrubber and one mini fuge. I also use bio pellet with one good skimmer.

My water change is..... Whenever I put new fish or every 2 week? But only 10%

I'm still learning and I'm glad i come this far without giving up. Maybe people love my scape and ask me to help them with it. It's my hobby to do scape and it is also my interest to see fish swimming around.

I'm running on zet light so somehow it's showing deep blue on my phone camera

So hard to take a picture since all fish is hiding.

My most favorite fish? Powder blue tang. The key of keeping one is make sure they eat. As long they eat they survive.

I'm going to change to xf150 today. Let's hope my leather will sway abit more.

Thanks for reading this thread.

Ps: this is the cheapest set up everyone can achieve since the coral are leather and beautiful like hard coral.

Ps2: only regret is that I can never keep clam in this tank. Well at least I can keep angel ~

PS3: angel eat anemone in my tank. The moment I put inside the tank, all the angel attack it and pull the fresh out. Even my onyx and percula can't save it.

Ps4: going play my ps4

Nice tank! What to look out for when running on Ambient temperature?

Look out for coral that's not doing well. They will melt and crash your tank if your tank is small.

Old leather I have it already acclimate to the temperature , some new leather will show sign of melting and you need to properly acclimate it if not it will be a waste
