  1. Coral beauty more common and hardy... Potteri usually dont do well in captivity... but very nice.. Golden also dont do well as dont feed well and hides a lot :) If you wanna spend a little, try joculator! :)

    Wrasses are good, mystery wrasse, leopard wrasse or the fairy wrasses all very nice :)

  2. True LR is solid :lol: !

    I prefer LR than Artificial rock due to the weight, natural look and less problem in the long run :P !

    Btw, just curious whether will the artificial rock peek off first layer(colour) if you take out the corals that glued on it :heh: ?

    Not true... otherwise the live rock will weigh the same dry or wet. :)

    As for the colour of the artificial rock, so far don't see the colors coming off.

  3. The reason why DSB is not so common for display tank is it gets ugly over time! LOL... the algae on the sand, the glass put people off. As for tank crashing, it will happen if too much of the nitrate trapped under the DSB is suddenly released (i.e. suddenly rescape the whole tank, disturb the DSB). The recommended action is to get snails, starfish, sand dollars etc to turn the sand gradually. Also, you can turn some of the sand manually.

  4. certainly possible. Just make sure glass thickness is thick enough. I have seen tanks that are a little warped because its not thick enough and has no top/bottom bracing.

    What I suggest is go for the recommended thickness and consider doing bottom bracing to reinforce. Also, lower height will help as well.

  5. Nice Tank! groupwavereversed.gif

    Wah see your tank I am very tempted to go back to Marine! Too bad for now no moola...

    Though I am increasingly inclined towards shallow Macro tanks now.

    Am planning a nano lagoon; Seagrass and macro algae. A pair of Mandarin dragonets for livestock (Really like those buggers so much that I will just keep them, no other fish). Tank will be very minimalistic, no sump just a tank and nano wave maker.

    Anyway, does CR do crystal glass with white silicon like those ADA kind?

    Aloysius.. I believe CR do crystal glass with white silicon..

  6. Wow....Lemon.....my mind was like running wild and think of that BIG BIG aquarium while reading you paint the picture...imagine like you say all those angels build nest, spawn and new hybrid :shock:!!!

    Yeah i have watch David's tank for numerous time, very inspiring with so many nice mix of fishes. He has a good blend of schools of yellow splashes (yellow tank mainly) and red color anthias, which makes it very pleasing as a whole. Some very rare fish as well though, but may not have as many of the collection as you have listed.

    If only some really passionate reefers in singapore who has got a big landed property could build something like him !

    Hmm....Ketchup and Desi seems quite fit the profile :P

    ya right.. provided we own Deltec like David Saxby...
