Finally, decided to post my tank photo to show those reefers who sold or give me their collections. I will try my very best to take care of them.

Just want to thanks those who have helped me in the my tank setup and livestock contribution. You know who you are. Appreciated all the discounts, free gifts, advices and knowledge transferred. Hope to get more support from reefers here in future.

Below are my crowded and messy tanks. Hope i can get some advices from snrs here and improve in my current and future tank setup. Apologies for my poor phone camera effect. Will try to use my DC to take close-up shoot. Right now is just a blur FTS. Good day to all.

Those are zoa frags but managed to put into my tank. The true percula managed to pair up with my small percula and after releasing them into my tank....they whacked my 3 black clowns.....managed to catch them and quarantine them.....sighz...thought i can remove my beta box but think got to be in my tank for sometime till the true pers show less agression. If not, got to sell my true percula pair...sob sob.....now my 3 black clowns swimming happily outside the beta box and mocked at the 2 true percula.....lol...lucky still can catch them....if cant...then i will have headache. Maybe bring my true per pair to be trained by my maroon pair....see what is the effect.....lol(joking)....

Thanks for the ride to Coral Farm and LCK. The solar wrasse doing fine and 2 hermits also...though i cant trace them but so far did seem many empty shell on the sandbed....lol...my solar also got whacted by my blue fairy but managed to tame her down and accept solar wrasse.

Catch up with you soon. : )

Initial aggression is normal. They give up after a few days. Personal experience is that Wild caught True Perc is more fierce than the Tank Bred B/W clown. This is true even if your B/W is resident with True Perc being new addition. I have similar experience as well until I lost all of them to Ich outbreak.

Wow you are an aggressive stocker! :unsure:

I have a 4x2x2 and I dont have as many LS compared to your 2x2x2 :eyebrow::eyebrow:

If you happen to take the Percs from Arcanehacker then you will know that he is in the same league as you too. :whistle:whistle

Denitrator, Chaetos would be a worthwhile investment for heavy stocked tank.

Bro, thanks for the advice. I know. I got a denitrator. Chaetos, i got but trying to see how best i can put into my tank. For my sump, there is not space and if i try to put it, i scare it will go into my pump and damage them. Thinking to put inside a betta box. Currently doing weekly water change and frequent washing of filter wool and skimmer. Will try to add chemic pure though i have used bio - home. Also using ozoniser and UV. Also got those poly filter. Ya, i think saw bro acrancehacker post before. Think if my tank crashes, ppl will say serve me right. Anyway, will do more water change and ways to bring down NO. Thanks for seeing and bother to advice me. Appreciated yr advice. Thanks.

Thanks bro. The camel shrimp is aways hiding behind the rock. Has not seen her going round the rock unlike the past where there were 3 of them. Now let her, she is always hiding in a cave cos the 5 cleaners and 1 fire shrimp are rather agressive.

For the lighting, i got 8 T5. Usually turn on 4 for more than 8 hrs and turn on all for 2 hours. Will check my KH to boost it to see the effect. Thanks for sharing the info. Appreciated it.

Pcs of advice, get rid of ur camel shrimp. Wat lights u using? The zoo all seems to be over extended. It's ur light or kh might be low.
