Dom, what is next for your tank? Are you still thinking of breeding fish?

Since Andrew is not hooking us up with Deer Park acro tank pics I think you need to take over? Come on make us drool with that Aussie LFS coral paradise.

Although Farmer Dom hasn't posted for 20 days, it is hot Pepper planting season. Dom has to prepare the fields, construct a greenhouse and plant. I'm sure once all his chores are done, he will return. Right Dom?

Go to the hardware store and buy a paint scraper, use it once and toss it. You only really need to scrape the back wall like twice a year.
haha that's exactly what I did! It was only a pain as it had built up over so long. It's the first time I've done the back wall in 18 months haha got one with a plastic handle and replaceable blades to make life easier!

You're getting a week long posting ban nothing new in the tank at all, been off for work and the tank needs some love and a good clean before I take any pictures or add anything new. I'm hoping to catch up with ol' Biggles on the weekend though!

Well, well, well......
Wich tank looks way way better now?????

You're welcome, again...
We're here to improve your reef keeping experience....




2 more things:

- I noted a job not so well done in the bottom right corner.
Please redo it and take another photos to show the improvement.

- Get the frag rack and the egg basket both lost.
They're polluting the front view...


And Dom, if you're thinking about murder, think again. I'm in the other side of the planet.......

I got bored doing the overflow so that will be this weekends job haha and the frag rack and shroom box unfortunately have to stay in the tank until I sort out the lights on the frag tank. They're not great and need a bit of an upgrade! I'm working towards getting an XR15 Gen 4 Pro for the sump
