Hi Junior,,, after been addicted to this SRC, seeing the passion of my good friend in marine, I started to setup this little jackpot slot machine... Yes, I mean it after 6 months down the road, it became a big fat slot machine. It swallow my hard earn money, however, the new bonding between my wife and children with this little jackpot make me feel I have make a right choice...

Coming back,,, just cut away all the setup portion, would like to share with you my collection and welcome ideas and suggestion as I seem hitting the T junction.

Here come the prata collection.. First and second prata RIP... :cry2:

Trying out another 2 pratas after changed from NSW to TM salt... seem like more confident they will survive.

Next update, my Zoas Garden... :)

The roti pratas bleach easily if put under direct strong lights and their tissue will recede if under strong flow and eventually melt away.

Thanks for sound advice..

I am using 6x T5, 3x Blue and 3x White.. Is this too strong ? I on for about 4hrs in the morning and 6 hrs at night.. prata and cynarina placement close to sand bed... no much of flow... what do you think ?

One thing for sure, my Zoas love the light and wave..
