The Unit Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 tanks are nice and different um is that a clown trigger in the secand tank? I hope he has another home or this is just temp...cause he will get way too big and aggresive Link to comment
Von digity Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 Wow, your soft coral tank looks like its really thriving under those 3 6500k 24 watt t5s. Very impressive. Link to comment
qualudethunder Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Cool tanks... How hard is it to keep that macro under control in the first tank? Also... how did you do the back wall in the fish only tank? Looks really nice. Link to comment
Acoustic Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 If you put a strong acintic light on your coral tank your corals will color up. Link to comment
Yulin Posted August 29, 2004 Author Share Posted August 29, 2004 Dear the unit, Yes, there is one 4cm clown trigger in this tank. It looks fine now in this tank. I plan to give it a larger tank later. thanks for your advice. Dear Von digity, Tanks for your praise. These soft coral has lived in this tank about 6 months. Dear qualudethunder, I will attach the structure diagram. Hope you can understand it. Dear Acoustic, Is "acintic light " means "Blue" color light? (Sorry, I'm not familiar with the english name about many aqua-applications.) I'm searching for T5 blue light, but it is not common in Taiwan. Link to comment

qualudethunder Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Yulin, What material did you make the back wall out of? It has a very natural rock look. Nice diagrams. Thanks Link to comment
Yulin Posted August 29, 2004 Author Share Posted August 29, 2004 qualudethunder sorry~I misunderstand your previous question. Here comes the material picture. I don't know what is the english name. ??? Hope it is helpful to you. Link to comment
Yulin Posted August 29, 2004 Author Share Posted August 29, 2004 another picture:happy: photo by my friend BS:P Link to comment
MarLooney Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 that's definately not your average approach to reef keeping. glad to see someone doing something different. i'd be concerned about the caulerpa growing out of control and bothering the softies, but it looks pretty nice anyway.

Yulin Posted August 30, 2004 Author Share Posted August 30, 2004 MarLooney I also worry about the caulerpa growing issue. So I will make regular shave. Attached pic is recent picture during my busy time. Plant growed like crazy, but the coral seems not be affected. Link to comment
xxaquanutxx Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 It looks like to me the material used for the back wall is something like a 3M Foam. polyetheline I think, not really sure as it was years ago i saw someone else use the foam for a malawi cichlid tank Link to comment
Yulin Posted August 31, 2004 Author Share Posted August 31, 2004 Um......... What is its name? Link to comment
qualudethunder Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 I was thinking that it was some kind of foam too xxaquanutxx. You can see the little circle patterns if you look close. Anyone know how safe this is to use or where you can get something like that in sheets? Link to comment
Yulin Posted September 1, 2004 Author Share Posted September 1, 2004 It was consisted by lots of small soft bubbles, which is like foam. This wall has been used in this tank about 2 years, and the only questions I met is some angelfish will peck those small bubble into their stomach and die.:x The reason for pecking action of angelfish may due to the adhered marine algae.
