bwilly Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 Thats a poka dot snapper and only will eat fish when it is big now at its juv size, don't think it will eat the clown agogo sweetlips.. it will go to veri big size n the dotty patches will be gone. then will be a dull brown colour, will u still love it then..? btw yr tank is pretty nice scaped. but u need to borrow some books from library n ask more qns here. anemone pls check their requirement before buying them. since you already "cycled" your tank, u may still like to note how the actual cycling works. Getting a better understanding on the foundation helps you in your future setting up, maybe like yr new 4ft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member regularguy Posted September 19, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted September 19, 2003 sorry to dampen your spirit but with $500, its best not to think about a 4ft tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member SpiderOne Posted September 19, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted September 19, 2003 Yes this is my first time marine hobbie.. so i starting small.. once i have like about $500 i will get a good 4ft tank wiht powerful lighint extrenaly.. u need more than double that to buy the powerful lighting alone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuEl Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 Hmmm...$500 US dollars? Bwuahaha Can..possible..go for triple T5...then the 4 feet ...4 feet X 1.5 ft X 1.5 ft... Or best..the height of the tank reduce to 1 ft...then the light intensity sure can keep sps already.

It is build such a way,that it looks like a Over flow box, and also very good filtering system.. those in the tank.. about 1/4 of it is taken for filtering alone, About the lighint.. comfim it is no good,, Best Regards, Giritharan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member SharkBait Posted September 19, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted September 19, 2003 From your description,i reckon its IOS.Thats more for freshwater use.And if it is built in such a way that the water inlet is at the bottom,than its even more useless.

SRC Member SpiderOne Posted September 19, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted September 19, 2003 suggest u source out and buy a proper tank instead of falling for these cheap all in 1 offers and spend way lot more $$ upgrading everything than if u just bought every thing proper from the start.

SRC Member Giritharan Posted September 21, 2003 Author SRC Member Share Posted September 21, 2003 Picture NO:6 I bought a new Canister Filter, So i can have some space in the tank, Brand name is: EHEIM, Model Name: Classic, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member SpiderOne Posted September 21, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted September 21, 2003 your sea fan is really beautiful. but it would be more beautiful if it opens up its polyps. place it in an area of strong current. I doubt its your tube anemone causing that mess. Classic is the series not the model . Im sure u know your lights are wayy too insufficient to maintain a healthy anemone Which shop did u buy that NO.5 From? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

X-Japan Posted September 21, 2003 Share Posted September 21, 2003 that pink coral is called a cauliflower coral which is of the Dendrophyta sp... almost impossible to keep alive even by most advanced aquarists. Cause real dedication is needed to feed the animals . that sea fan is a deep water fan, also another invert very hard to keep alive even with target feeding of live rotifers and phytoplankton. it is also non-photosynthetic. people who don't know much about ends up looking at its beauty only to see it waste away in a matter of weeks. you could have really used all that money and spent it wisely on better equipment. you tank has not even really went through its cycling stage entirely, judging by that whole patch of diatoms beside your tube. The people here are trying to refrain from flaming you already....seeking attention.... oh man..... what a way to put it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
