Aquarium 1 (1 ft cube - 27 litres)
Looking at this aquarium, it has very few corals and I lost a few recent fishes addition to marine ich. The few small sized fishes include a Coral Beauty, a Copperband Butterfly and a Raccoon Butterfly. What a pity because they were such lovely fishes. The new 1 inch Regal Blue Tang suffered from the same marine ich on and off but it is generally fine.I am having a snails problem but just the other day, I started feeding the Bubble Coral with these snails and it seemed fine. At least now, I do not have to net out the snails and can use it as food to feed the Bubble.

Aquarium 3 (3 x 1.5 x 1.5 feet and sump - 250 litres)
I added a piece of rock from the Ng couple and now I can possibly add on a few more sps or corals to the aquarium. There are still areas where I can still add a few more pieces of rocks to elevate the corals closer to the water surface.
I lost a pink Millepora and a light orange Chalice and it looks like the brain is also wasting away.
