humm this is an odd choice in fish food but it looks like it's working for you, I might try to switch to the grilled chicken burger for the reef tank :}

I was just telling my mom about your pond. She would LOVE to do one, but then she sees how much work a reef tank is and said nope, not for her! Not sure what's involved in looking after a pond but it sure looks a lot more relaxing!!!

Can I be your friend Kien? Seriously though, you have some nice specimens. Do you quarantine your fish before introduction into the pond? I haven't added any fish cause I am so scared of disease. Same reason I don't add corals into my tank anymore.

No I don't QT. I find treating pond fish fairly easy though, as there is no worry about nuking the rest of the pond like in a saltwater tank. There's just fish and plants :-). Plus, doing a 100% water change on a pond is a lot easier too.
