Its good to actually see the fish, instead of just getting a flash when the food comes out
Whats next on the fish list, wont be long before your overstocked again, hey
Hey Rob.
That is very true.
Thinking a Blue Ringed Angel, nice and Big and maybe 1 or 2 more tangs. Olivaceous or Blond Lipstick, not too sure.
I added 10 Chromis and 10 Dispairs on Friday

My 9001st post should be an update!!!
Well there has been many changes since installing this beast.
Tragically I had a disease wipe out 90% of my fish 2 weeks after setting the tank up. Subsequent treatments and feeble attempts to rectify also lead to losing corals as well. Then came algae and Cyano and basically a mini cycle.
But not to be beaten down and with encouragement from she who must be obeyed I have restocked (partly) and got back to basics.
Follow along on my page if you like for all the adventures

Looking good Rus, I may have missed it, are you gonna have a back drop behind the tank to hide the tank room?

Yeah I have been "polling" on FB about Blue or Black. I like both, I want a printed 1 maybe as well. I also like no background as the tank looks crystal clear and you dont see all the floaty bits.
I just cant decide....

The blue and black are samples already.
As for the print, well that is a cheapy for me. I sell the media so just need the image

With my old tank, I had a sheet of corflute, black vinyl one side and blue the other.
