Yea would like to build a nice stand for the lights. Thought about buying those expensive brands with stands, but you know what the BSLED cheap units does the job just as well. Everything in my tank is thriving from those cheap leds units. For under 300 bucks each I cant complain. Been using these leds units for 2 years now :)

HAhah yea my yellow and blue tang love eating the algea off the powerhead. Atleast it keeps them active.

Apart from that no real updates. Hoping my frag completely grows over the frag rack lol.. Fingers crossed it happens end of year.

Btw at one stage I did attempt to build a stand for it. Was going to cover it up nicely and make a proper hood, but that didn't work out lol.

Here is a picture my uncle took with his crappy digi cam:
Pic taken more than a year ago.

My gf is selling her 2ft cube, stand, sump, pipe work for $400. If you in Sydney and pick up soon I can give you free salt water to fill up the whole tank. Its a octopus brand 2ft cube. Oh and also comes with a hood.
The tank is also all cleaned up. Thought I mentioned it here first.
Once I get the chance to go over there I will take some pics and post up an ad.

If you keen pm me. Cheers.

Updates on my tank:

- Nothing.. Everything is still the same and thriving.

cheers

Yes frag rack is now holding up by cable ties. It cant support the weight of the frag.

Mate, that growth is fantastic and looks like a really nice acro specimen too. I Love seeing the form take shape over time, morphing into what it is today. Would almost be a shame to frag it.....:eek

Frag rack is now a reef skeleton! And big mamma clam Dominates ;)

Hahahahah thanks vspec :P Atleast I know you live in vic lol..

Meller - thanks mate. Yea never going to frag it. I want it to grow all over the frag rack. Im hoping by end of year 50% of the frag is covered and grown over. Its nearly there now so who knows maybe 65-70% by end of year. Will keep you updated with my progress.

Once again I dont dose anything in my tank apart from calcium and bi-carb soda which is 2.50 from wollies :) Thats it..

Cheers
