Default 175 g (with 30 g seahorse tank) @ 6 months

Hello reefers,

Some tank pics for you to enjoy. The cube tank is sharing the same tank water with the main display tank.

Main display tank


Orange & Green Cauliflower with (Ulva lettuce seaweed - came out of the rock)


Main Display - Left


Main Display Right


Seahorse/Pipefish Tank. Unfortunately I could not entice my seahorse nor pipefish to come out since they are camera shy.

Default Pendant question

The seahorse pendant light is 175W (65,000k) MH. I could not put in the 10k MH due to power tripped. This light is good enough for me, I have lots of beneficial macroalgae sprouting out from the live rock in the main display tank and I have transferred them into my refugium and the seahorse tank. Need to get some tangs soon to have a feast on the Ulva seaweed.

The colours look very good. There must be something wrong with the 10000K bulb because it should not draw any more current than the 6500K bulb.

Default thanks

Thank you reefers for all your compliments. It really helps to boost confidence level and prolong our patience.
The tank was covered with red slime all over 1 week before the shots. We've bought the 'red slime remover' by Ultralife and it was gone like magic within 2 days. Did a 20% water change and now all inverts are so happy and extended.
We have also cut down fish feeding to 2 days interval. More pics to come soon.
