all opinios are good recive.

Great tank. Is that a bare bottom? What are you using to make the bottom white? Looks good,
 
Do you have a local FS that sells that many ORA corals? None around here do. Looks great.
 
Hello Stpatrick

When i started the tank i would not put sand, but whe i introduced the yellow cori i fill whit a little portion of sand the front part of the tank , but behind and below the rock still bare bottom.

The spray paint that i use to paint the glass of the bottom of the tank is Krylon fusion semi gloss.

Finally my bellina acro died when the alk drop in 5.8dkh. That is one of my favorite corals from ORA too. I am waiting to place my next order from ORA to reorder.
 
They are past some weeks that i post anything. Today i add to my thank a small purple tang, and the last week i add a japane swallow angel female, two frags of polips one of they is a deep water polips and a rainbow wessopilia.

jayson...did you find the other sunburst ? Sometimes they are solitary and may harass one another... in my tank only one thrived :(....

btw... you never told me that ORA Micronesian mauve arrived in the store:sure:.... you kept that for yourself quickly huh....lol.... I want a frag :wink:
 
bahh the two sunburst anthias died one the next day and the oder was eating good and one day i found stoked in a hole. :$
