the first time i ever set eyes on this tank, i voted straight away for it to become TOTM - that was a while ago, i always knew it would make it.

One of my favorite tanks ever - literally.

Vanquish your tank is simply stunning.

Old Air Force expression: Pontius Pilate....... 2000 years ago....so when Pontius was a pilot.....oh, never mind! I actually left there in 1970. The house where I lived is now buried under Changi Airport's runway! Once again, I'm so glad your fantastic work has been recognised.

My underdstanding on the A- & K+ elements is that they should not be dose together, hence I dose 10ml on alternate days... I always prefer to dose additives in small dosages daily as compared to a larger dose every week... :)

I tried the TM Pro Coral mineral some time ago but stopped when I started experiencing a minor algae bloom... :(

Hope that helps! :)

You're most welcome SCOOB!!

I do recall having seen tanks with multiple combinations of different lightings with different wattage all over the tank and still wonder how they manage it! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
