We are not quite happy with rock-shape and aquascape.
So we deicide to change the rock and do the re-aquascaping.
And here is the result.

What a beautiful tank! I love the new aquascaping!

tygger · 02/17/2008, 02:37 AM

Looks great! I was there just a couple months ago... where are you guys located?

chingchai · 02/17/2008, 07:48 AM

NanoGurl, tygger. Thanks.
Our club is in Jatujak Plaza(close to Jatujak market) where you can find plenty of LFS.

How much is the total cost to setup such a wonderful aquarium? Do you find it hard to get the equipment coz' we don't have a good supplier in Malaysia, Please give me more information on the club coz' it much nearer in Malaysia.

tygger · 02/17/2008, 04:17 PM

My relatives told me that there were a lot of fish stores at Jatujak, but I didn't get a chance to shop there.

I too, was wondering how much fish and coral cost. Looks like you guys bought colonies as oppose to frags.

OneDayMatt · 02/17/2008, 04:26 PM

The colors looked better before the Solaris.

edwing206 · 02/17/2008, 04:37 PM

It costs around US$8,000 to set up this tank.
Most of the equipment is coming from Singapore and Hong Kong.
You can find more details of our club at this link.

Yes, there are plenty of LFS at Jatujak.

Fish and coral here is more expensive than HK and Singapore. Say 50% higher.
We buy both colony and frag depending on what we see in the shop.
But frags mostly are SPS.

Pics don't do justice at all.
You have to see the real tank and you'll love Solaris.
The only problem of this lighting is the pricing. Still too high.

Thanks SIRENA.
Just put the rock in the proper gap and glue it with epoxy.
