Nano Reef Jakarta : 31l/8gal Nano Reef Cube

[NanoJakarta]

INTRODUCTION

Jakarta based music producer here, living in one bedroom apartment with my boyfriend. 

We just created a nano reef in our home as an homage to Indonesia's marine treasure.

 

I've been into fish and aquatic animals since i was little. Now, fish keeping is a part of my life.

Now, i'd like to share my nature's artwork with you all. Let us grow this tank together!

New updates on my 31l/8gal Nano Reef Cube :

Cleaner shrimp and blue legged hermit crab finally molting in my aquarium. I believe that its a sign that they're quite comfortable with their new home. 

Anyway, i uploaded new video on my Youtube Channel about my clean up crew's behaviour. Please check it out!

Just quick update! (7/11/22)

 

I got a major re-scaping for better placement and growth of the coral. 

Here's what it looks like 

 

So I have to re-glue the bubble coral on the side and I'm planning on making a Tracyphyllia garden on the sand bed. Beside that, the torch gonna be on the around the mid - heavy flow area and sps garden will be on the top. Everything lookin fine and happy, lookin forward for more growth
