Hi All,

I live in Fraddon and have been keeping Malawi's for about 2 years. Decided to start keeping marines and have just bought a nano reef set up (5 gallon) and have live rock, 2 mushrooms, 2 zoos and another coral I am not familiar with.

Fish wise, I have a Percula Clown, 2 Yellow Tail Blue Damsels and 2 Black & White Damsels. No problems with agression yet!

Hoping to get along to the frag nights to get some more corals.

Pete

Here are a few pics of my setup...
Can anyone identify this one for me???

Thanks all and I look forward to adding to this tank and getting a bit more experience before converting my Aqua One 620T (currently hosting Malawi's) to a reef setup.

Pete

I saw the beat at Bodmin too! In the public rooms, mount folly. I have loads of the beat vinyl, 7" 12" and albums, both uk and international pressings too. I also have a White label test pressing of 'hit it' by the beat!

Anyway...... I digress. The tank and fish are doing well and looking forward to sorting larger tank out for marines!
