A reef on the 10th floor

This is one of the best designed tanks, I met recently. Very beautiful corals. Awsome...
 
Decided to add some blood worms... a treat for my Marginalis butterflyfish! Looks yummy!

Beautiful! Must have been quite a job getting everything up 10 floors. My hats off to you.

Thank you, Clarke. Getting the tank up here was easy as it easily fitted in the elevator, there were 4 or 5 guys and I only touched the tank after it was in place. :rolleyes:
 
HAHA! Nice vid!
 
Do you have any problem with the Marginalis picking on the feather worms in the Porites? I have always wanted a such a rock but thought my Copperband would destroy it. Beautiful tank, I like your rockwork very much, nice and open. :)

Thank you very much for the kind comments. The Marginalis totally ignores the Christmas tree worms and all my corals but sometimes picks on the sand sifter starfish legs. I had a Chelmon Rostratus and he was very well behaved too but most of butterfly fish I tried picked on feather worms. The safest ones I tried are the Marginalis, the local Chelmon Rostratus (Thailand), the Six Spined, the Pyramid and the Yellow Long Nose, the yellow Long nose killed my large abalones, though.
