These photos are take a few days ago. most of the fish in here is abt 2-4wks, except for the african clown, which is my favourite, help me with the feeding of the anemones and also my blood shrimp, whihc seldom goes out from the LR.

Recently after my tank crash, I always look up to this forums for help and also some of the thread that are very useful. And also with some pple that I know from this forums and sometimes still contact him for advise.

I'm looking for more suggestion /critics from everybody so as to improve my tank.

Please feel free.

how come so much black dots on the body?

Your lighting is not enough and the time period is too short, you need at least 8 hours (9-10 better) of strong lighting for your corals to survive as lights is a source of food for them. suggest you use at least 4 tubes of T5 with high output for your tank.

Also do a bit of research on fish and corals compatibility, not all butterfly and angel fishes are reef safe.
