I'll get my two at the end of this week. They were probably caught together. They are together in the importer's tank now, I've observed them for a few minutes yesterday, I didn't observe any quarreling, so I assume that it'll be a mated pair. The importer didn't know this either, he even called...
In German stores, they go for about 500-800 euros, the same goes for The Netherlands. 500-800 equals about 700-1100 USD I guess.
In Europe they are also hard to find, but not as hard as in the US it seems to me.
They are beautiful.
My experience is that some of them indeed do accept prepared foods but they NEED sps polyps to survive more then a few months.
I would donate them to someone with a large sps tank who is accepting the fact the sps don't show their polyps during daytime anymore. Nighttime...
Thans Ben and Sharky,
I guess I overlooked the rules a little bit :oops:
But, as you can see, I removed two of the pics, and resized the other :)
Happy? :)
Tanu ;)

Tank specs...
- Drill the LR with a rock drill, and stack them up pvc tubes to build high but stable structures.
- Mount pvc tubes to the (side-) walls of the tank and attach LR to it by means of tie-raps. Thus it is possible to create very cool and natural side- and backwalls
- Do not try to create a berlin...
Sure! Seven Seas (www.seven-seas.nl) is quite close to Amsterdam and very recommendable! It is located on the premises of a garden center, so... Ask for the garden center if you can't find it! It is a small shop, but worth a visit.
Waterweelde (www.waterweelde.com) is also worth a visit: a...
You don't want a pic of the cabinet right now :D . I moved the inhabitants and parts of the equipment from my old tank to this one, but I didn't have time to make a neat install. I'll list the equipment:
- Aquaspacelight: 2 x 150 W hqi 10.000 K and 2 x 24 W pc Osram blue
- Tunze Turbelle 4000...
Brandon, thanx! Although the tank is about 160 G, it is only lit by one Aquaspacelight: 2 x 150 W Hqi ( ab 10.000 K ) and 2 x PC 24 W blue (osram).
I forgot: about 1 month ago I also installed a UV sterilizer, to lower the ammount of pathogens in the water. Combined with a little ozone, I try...
Odb, it was 3 months, but it grows waaay to fast!
Here two pics I took a few minutes ago:
During the last weeks I added a regal angel (Red Sea), sold to me by a fellow reefer who didn't want this fish anymore, a majestic (import), and re-arranged some small things.
I've been to the store of Korallen Zucht (which means 'coral-breed', but he actually imports most of the corals). It is run by Thomas Pohl, who runs the company in the back of his sun-studio/piercing studio/tatoo shop!!
The corals are incredible, indeed. Apart from a large skimmer and 24/7...
Because I just recieved an email about my old tank, I think it's time to update you on the new one :)
In the tank shown on my website (needs updated, I've sold this tank and
built another one...) I used two pvc-based-structures. One is the pile which
is shown. The rocks are just stacked on the...
