Hi Chingchai, your tank still looking beautifull. Did you make any changes to any equipment and lighting or still using the same stuff when you setup the tank? Do you still do water changes on the system and how much a week? O and what salt you using?

chingchai,
i noticed your tunze are all located on the back pane of the tank, how do you like the flow this has created for you. and what do you use to supplement flow in the front part of the tank. or do you need no supplement?

Hi chingchai,

this is the best tank I've ever seen! Amazing work! Well done!

I wanted to ask you. The soft corals you have on the soft corals tank cannot be hosted to your main tank? If not why? Because of light, circulation?

Thanks

Suhay. Thanks.
I still use the same lighting and equipment.
Only add LED strip from Eco-lamps.
I do water change 185 gallon once a week with Reef Crystal from France.

Corey. The flow is acceptable.
No need to add more.

emik. Thanks a lot and welcome to Reef Central.
Some of my soft corals can be hosted in my main tank.
But I prefer to group them all in the small tank. Nothing special.

As requested, more pictures of how I install these lamps:





The controllers were taken out of the lamp and put at the back of my room.

Very nice Chingchai, I got to see one of these lights last friday at Acan Lighting who is the US distributor for them and they are very bright!

I believe that he has Reef Crystals shipped in from France. I am not sure if that is the same formula as what is sold in the US though

Yes, I use RC from France.
Not sure whether it is the same formula or not.
I used to use RC from USA before I switch to this one.
So far I prefer the current one.

Still have no time to do any updated yet.
Hopefully I can do it next week.

Here are the new fishes I got from Blueharbor last two week.
A pair of Marshal anthias and a pair of Hawaiian anthias
