Everything looks great! Your tube anemone is really stunning though. I understand they can be difficult, did you have a hard time getting it to thrive?

Thanks! Not, you have to feed. I feed every twice week with shrimp.

How..how..how how did you achieve this in 3 months? This looks absolutely amazing! I'd love to have you follow my build thread and steer me in the right direction! Very nice reef.

Thanks a lot my english is not so good so sorry for that!
I don't believe in slow start. This is not my first tank which i started with quick start. But why do we wait with the firts coral several weeks? Because of the algae Chance and the denitrification. Why Do we have algae at the beginning? Because they don't have competition...if we put some corals at the beginning the algae have some competition and they doesnt grow so quick.
I have started this tank with live rock, live sand and 20% live water. After 3 days i put the firts corals and fish into. From that time i put several new corals and fishes per week. Now it's completly. I will by just two LSD fishes and thst's all.
The other thing is, that I'm a fan of High-Tech, this why i only use very good and oversized technik. In this case the feeding is not a problem. My automat feed 3 times a day and I feed 3-4 times a week with froozen feed. My No3 is 3-5 and Po4 around 0,02. I also have a small algae refuge and this helps also.

So, this is my way and I'm always very happy when i See my tank

Great work on the system. I like the additions of the mandarins

 

[Oldsofty]

Very awesome mandy's! Nothing like these scooting across the rocks. It's great u got yours trained already. They will definitely up the tanks beauty big time. Grats. Another great addition.

Did you get the pair from ORA?

 

[Elch]

Thanks all of you! It was a long time till i found this pair. I want to have a pair whom are already eating frozen food too.
I get it from a small aquaristic Shop in the neighborhood (Germany, Baden)

Your tank is amazing.

I don't think ora sells aquacultured mandy's anymore, not many purchased them because wild caught are so much cheaper. So, you have to train them yourself now. It can be done though, as this pair shows.
