Is there a reason u out two flame angels in the sps tank?

Flame angels is always my favourite fish , and from my past experience it can be kept in pair or even three with some tricks . For nipping on corals, they are busy pecking on rocks for algaes rather than on corals, but again this is depending a little bit on luck as well if they will behave

Photos of the door opening hinges. Due to the weight of the door, I told the carpenter to use 5 stainless steel hinges together with the lifting level for greater support.

Front view with the door open. The front opening design really make the tank maintenance and stacking of the corals easier .

Newly install FIP "Check valve " for the water change piping line .

The Removable " Add on hood " to cover the opening space between the water line and the tank bracing.

Due to the position of the equipment, i can't full ulitize the plug / function that the Apex neptune controller has to offer, but i am glad that the flexibility of the controller enable me to connect both power bar at both end of the tank with a extension USD cable.

Thus i installed another control board at the other end of the tank for this.

Some frags from some friends together with some newly bought Australia coral .

CR up and running with the C02 regulator. The C02 supply run for about 9 hour a day together with my frag tank lighting.

I dont run PH controller for my CR, since base on my past experience the above method work for me.

And finally to end the update of the day with some tank shot. Did a rescape last week with help from a very talented reefer here, and i love the new look.

How much time do you get from the battery back up?

How much time do you get from the battery back up?

Unfortunately or should i also say "Fortunately" i did not have a chance to fully test out how much this can last, but from the information i got it should last me 6-8 hour for my Vortex.

nice set up. i am looking into a battery backup for my tank. was just curious about yours. The UPS we have at the office only last about 30 mins and that only powers 2 computers.

How many chromis are in there?! 20??? Love my 5 chromis.

Have you figured out a fish stocking plan yet? Or are you just gonna wing it to what strikes your fancy

 

[YHSublime]

Looks beautiful. I've enjoyed watching you grow this from the begining. You are making very quick progress!
