Akio's reef tank

[Akiowalt]

Hey everyone! This is my third tank. My first and second tank were crashed due to insufficient research and experience. Facing algae problem, coral died, bad water quality, poor lighting, and so on. And I learn through the journey, I never give up and start all over again.

Nice tank! I like the way all the mushrooms look laying on the bottom.

 

Carribean biotope?

All corals from Indonesia pacific.

Yes. The tank is too small for these 3, 12" x 12" x 12". They are the survival from my previous tank. Don't worry, I'm planning to buy a bigger tank to host them.

here's my inspiration from Malaysia Redang Island:

 

 

 

 

I try to avoid anemones, so I prefer mushroom for my small tank. Torch or LPS coral will be my best choices so far. I decided to add some leather coral on top.
