the smallest marine setup ever

[EvolutionZ]

this set up is only 2 weeks old?

Why dont you put a shrimp inside instead of 4 fishes? The bioload will be easier to handle and i believe there will be more space since shrimps dont swim a lot. You can try blood red fire shrimp.

yeah thought of that before but really wanted to try it out after years of keeping marine in big tanks.

I'm a stranger to marine fishes but from a layman's point of view, it looks beautiful indeed!

Do keep us updated on the progress and if it's possible to setup a marine tank this way, I would be interested to find out how it's done too.

Meanwhile, good luck!

thanks for the well wish. it doesn't take a rocket scientist for this simple setup. just add the sand and water and then the fishes. the crux is waiting for the tank to mature.

dominos are equally aggressive, in fact, marine fishes are highly territorial. thats why cannot suka suka add fish. i had my fair share of water prob resulting in fish loss and what can i say but thats how we learn.

center piece was changed, ocellaris grew a little fatter, domino starts to territorialise the whole space......almost another 2 weeks liao.....water is stable and fishes feeding well......so far so good
