I am actually quite happy that a few new sps that I bought this month are also colouring up nicely with the combination of the AI Hydra 52 HD and the chiller.
I moved the Maroon Clownfish, which was growing humongous, to the office after I bought a Flame Angel to add to this aquarium. I have also introduced 3 of my all time favourite False Percula Clown fishes.
The livestock are:
- Fishes
- Flame Angel
- 3 common Clown Fishes
- Invertebrates
- Turbo Snails
- Cleaner Skunk Shrimp
- Camel Shrimp
- Corals
- LPS
- Supersun Coral
- Fox Coral
- Soft Corals
- 2 pink Rose Bud Tip Anemones
- cyan Tree Coral
- pulsing Xenia
- Polyps
- green Palythoa
- Zoas
- green Star Polyps
- Macroalgae
- green Algae
- Chaetomorpha algae
The technical information is as follows:
- Atman HF-0600 HOB Filter
- Maxspect Razor Nano 60W (10,000K)
- Tunze Nano Osmolator
- AOL 60 litres chiller
Aquarium 3 (3 x 1.5 x 1.5 feet and sump - 250 litres)
The colouring up of the sps is quite encouraging but I find I still lack some vibrant colours such as red, purple, blue etc to achieve the reef look that I sort after. Unfortunately, the iphone doesn't quite capture the actual colours of the corals too.
