Senior Reefer yikai Posted January 24, 2009 Author Senior Reefer Share Posted January 24, 2009 nice tank bro.ur trigger ok with ur inverts? Yup. Too blind and lazy to go hunt and eat the inverts that are on the rock. But when i put small inverts like pistol shrimp and sexy shrimp, when its floating down the tank in the water and if its small enough, the trigger will eat.

SRC Member uLtRaMaN Posted January 24, 2009 SRC Member Share Posted January 24, 2009 Nice to see ur updates. IMHO, scaping could be better as now i do not see much "lobangs" created for the fishes to swim in n out. Try improving on that and u will surely be glad that u did. Hmm just wondering why u did not try to conceal the overflow box with the LRs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member albinosage Posted January 24, 2009 SRC Member Share Posted January 24, 2009 Wow, the sun coral is niceeee...... Nice to see your zoos in the tank. Didn't have time to monitor my tank. Came home and just as I placed the zoos into the tank, kena summon out for shopping duty with minister of home affairs I agree that the rocks a bit too densely packed. Next time you tear down to catch fish can take the chance to rescape a little hahaha. My 1.5ft nano cube My 24G nano tank (Decommed) I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it. -- Jack Handey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm just wondering why u did not try to conceal the overflow box with the LRs? Haha ok i forgot to mention that the rocks look conjested, but there are alot of space inside. The rock is made like this. Side view | water | water | ( | means rock). From the front u see all conjested, but when u look from the side, there are gaps in between. Like layers. Alternating between rock, water, rock water and finally rock. So from the front view it looks like the rockscape is too packed, but in actualy fact, its not. Haha regarding the overflow, never thought of that lor lols. I live the empty space there with the sand, for my fish to play and feed. There is a sand dollar that refuses to go anywhere but that area haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
