I reckon in a 2ft pack it up with corals then maybe a nice pair of clowns (about $60), a small 6line wrasse ($20) and maybe a dwarf angel. Ive got a 3ft tank with a small flame angel ($90). They have very sharp flame like colours. A must for every marine tank larger than 2ft. smile.gif

This isnt mine, but this is how it looks like if you dont have a clue what it is.

great pics Budi , is it easy to maintain a 2ft marine tank , do you use fresh sea water or do you make it up, just curious as i always thought big tanks were only used in marine setups,

cheers

how u feed the anenomies/ coral? is it just like fertilising?

there's no anemones in my tank and i don't have to feed corals.

i add a little bit of reef buffer, calcium, magnesium weekly or so.

how to you get the corals to come out like that with only 40w of lighting,is there natural light falling on the tank?

don't know how. they like me???? tongue.gif there's no natural light falling on the tank.
