Recommended Posts

Just a humble remake since the cyano attack.

Intend to create a cosy home for my clownfish. Not much corals in aquarium, have not decided to go for coral theme yet :)

And special thanks to Razali for the wonderful lighting :D

Thanks, will show more as the corals are stocked up :)

I created the 2 'brothers' to isolate the carpet aneomone on the left island while keeping the right island safe for corals :D

I am thinking of a theme of soft coral, zoas, mushrooms but I know it is hard to resist the stunning colored LPS/SPS :D

Jeff

Thanks. I am thinking of that too but I have a limitation due to the size of the aquarium cabinet - it is custom made to be rather low height so I cannot put in a huge skimmer. Any recommendation?

Jeff
