Syed, you can learn lots more. One thing that you will continue to learn is patience which is a great thing in itself. Long term success with corals usually means starting with tank raised corals not those straight from the ocean. Start a new tank, you won't be disappointed. Much can be gained from this hobby.

Wait wait wait, all you Saudis/people living in Saudi, how easy has it been to set up aquariums there?
Im going to be moving there in a couple years, and I was super worried that there wouldnt be many aquarium stores there and that I would have a hard time finding things like here in the US. Aquariums are basically the key to my happiness, so Im glad to see the hobby is in fact alive over there!

Thanks jpython... I am happy to know that you like my tank and the work I have done to make my thank as successful tank.

I am really very happy to know one more reef hobbyist in Jeddah. ....

Actually and unfortunately we do not have much LFS in jeddah, who able to deliver what we need. they only have very limited stuff and the stuff they got is not sufficient.

Some of the guys they order by their own, some of them they order and they sale fishes and corals.

Contact with Dunia Al Rabia at Bawadi area....

Thanks for your message. First of all I like to inform you that I am not Saudi, actually I belong to Pakistan and living in Jeddah Saudi Arabia.

Unfortunately we do not have much LFS here. All of us along me ordered everything related this hobby form USA, UK, Malaysia, Singapore and other countries.

Some time fishes are available here with very limited verity..... Simple it that, you cannot find anything locally what you need?
