Ok the pair host liao, as what lawchan77 mentioned in his tank thread, the pair see what my picasso pair is doing and do the same after I release them into the main tank.(The pair fail to host the anemone in the beta box and the female escape into the main tank so I release the male also. =p)

Yup all 4 host on the same anemone, bad new for me cause my anemone is right at the back of my scape so I will only see the clown during feeding time, the rest of the time, they will be playing inside the anemone and dun explore the rest of the tank. Haiz.

Ichiban!
Beautiful! Love your scaping.

Thanks bro. =)

I did some of the changes to my scaping, I added 4 middle rock in to block the outlet of my return, as they are too strong and I cannot put any SPS 1 feet in front of the return.

I also reposition my wavemaker to the side instead of the back and run in wavebox mood.

Overall colour of the SPS has return, maintaining and the grow is good. =). Will update in a mth time to see if there is any chances.

Oh ya, I also add a rock in the middle for my zoas, maybe due to the sand, my zoas are not doing well on the sandbed but very well on rock. =)

So far so good, hair algae is controled now with the help of sea hare, sea urchin and powder blue tang.

Added a powder blue, no ich at all, pecking on rock everyday.
