Thank you Wrangy for understanding the frustration part of this hobby. I should get some fishes soon and will post some pics when I get them in the tank. In the meantime did my weekly cleaning and water change today . Tank is spotless now and all my existing corals and fishes doing good. Time for a FTS soon

Do you have the same problem ordering equipment for your tank or is it only livestock?

My skimmer is giving me stable foam now. I think I may have just got the trick in adjusting . Only thing I see that my skim mate is not very dark in colour. I am going to stick around with the CSkim for a couple of more months. And @Mrsalt, I am going to take some decent FTS and will post as soon as it is done.

High mate how's it going? Glad you managed to dial in the skimmer, I think the skimate is. Mixture of how wet you skim and also the type of organic waste in the water. Mine changes skimate colour from time time without adjustment only through dosing some coral food or liquid feed.

Hi Mr Salt, everything is fine with my tank. I have a update .. I added three fishes today. One red ruby dragonet aka red scooter blenny, one Lamarck angel and one Splendid Dottyback. The dragonet is indeed very colourful but tiny. And the FTS is still some days away.

Nice additions orieng.

Glad you got the skimmer sorted, I happen to think they are very capable skimmers once set right, but many give up trying.

Looking forward to the upcoming pics ;)

A pic of my frogspawn. I have had this coral for 4 years now and have fragged it many times.

Another pic of a leather I have. Can anyone tell me the name? This has grown so big and grows fast too.

No idea on the leather, but that's is sweet froggy.

Not sure how I missed your thread, but I'm all caught up now.

New tank completed 3 months today. Spent the entire morning cleaning the tank and sump. Also cleaned out the 3 circulation pumps and the return pump as well. Also re arranged the scape so as to make a lot of tunnels for the fishes to swim through.

It's almost like you took the photo with a color filter on.

What is the orange/yellow fish with a white stripe? That a sunburst anthias? I like it. I'm on the lookout for fish to add to my tank.
