put a fan in front of the light blowing it so it swings nonstop should give u even better special effects keke. Oh yah since u were showing pics of snails .. heres mine.

Fan blowing light fixture? Emm... how about install a motor to move the lighting left and right to mimic sun orientation? :pinch:

Btw... went LFS shopping after meeting... tadaa!

Bro Jervis, Henry has a few Tiger-tail cucumber at his shop.

Might want to drop by and take a look, they are pretty long :whistle

Thanks bro for the info... I think I will give it a miss for the time being as the 2 Black Sea Cucumber might have difficulty finding enough food for the first few weeks :pinch:

As expected... once connected to the main tank... the skimmer went crazy... must be from the Live Sand :whistle

Will be relocating the Aquatronica Power Unit behind the skimmer to better manage safety :)

there seem to be some infection above your BT eye? that's what i see from the pic, something above the eye.

Yes... it's been like that for more than a year... but it is doing well... and growing well too :)

Jervis since you are long term this live sand user, did you find the skimate is like calcium (greyish) powder? I dump 2 bags live sand from AM and my RSM skimmer when crazy in minutes and water turn cloudy and I found that this live sand is not clean I found lots pieces of plastic inside it and sucked to my sump.

Yeah I've been using this brand of live sand, both white and black... I have not once found any plastic pieces inside... as for the cloudiness... it's kinda expected from any sand related material... for mine, the cloud settled within 1/2 day... as for the rest... let the skimmer take care of it :D
