Time for a bit of an update... My old tank does not exist anymore. As I moved into a new house 2 years ago, I also set up a new tank. Slightly smaller as I did not have more space, but I tried to make best out of it. The new tank is built in a wall in the living room and still contains about 600 litres of water...

Just as the previous tank, the tank was set up as a fish tank which also contains corals. While I like the corals a lot, the fish are even more tempting.... Here are some of the inhabitants I am particularly proud of:

Chaetodon tinkeri

Oxymonacanthus halli (pair, they even lay eggs!)

Centropyge colini (I have two, but they are no pair yet)

N. helfrichi and M. choati over three Tridacna squamosa

Pygoplites diacanthus, I got this fish in 2003

Chaetodon larvatus. I got this fish on December 7th 2015. Apart from grazing on the coral polyps, I got it to fatten up by feeding it fresh oysters every day. Needless to say this is definitely the most difficult fish in my tank. With the right attention, I feel it will stay with me for many years to come.

Gramma dejongi - right before its introduction to the tank.
Have a nice day
