Thank you !
I'm trying to maintain old school method at this system, mainly at dosing the "big 3" elements (Alk,Cal,Mag) and lighting (ATI power module 10×54w and 2 kessil 360x tuna blue)

Lps tank is 120 liters (Lps)
Sump is 200 liters
both tank are connected to same sump.
Lighting: ATI power module hybrid 8×54w + Leds clusters above DT.

Taking live rocks from the red sea in Israel will get you to jail or at least you will recive a very heavy fine.

lol you’ll get a fine even if they catch you take a glass of water from the Red Sea, let alone rocks, coral or fish.

Hi, your tank looks good, it’s good to see that you still have it maintained after one year, I have a question for you, are the retail prices for coral and saltwater fish real high in your country like it is here in America?I'm not good photographer, but here it is
