I posted some pics of my butterflyfish on here a fair while ago, I had cyano issues then but now it is gone and the tank looks a lot better so I thought I'd post some new pics.
Its a low tech tank, hang on octopus skimmer, glass heater in the skimmers' spare chamber, 5000lph (1300gph) powerhead and 4x36w power compact lighting. I have a computer fan to stop the lights heating up the water, a DIY hood to stop jumpers and a DIY LED moonlight. No sump. Marine doesn't need to be real techy or fancy to work, just thought and planning needs to go in.
Love the macro algae, its like a little in tank forest. Absorbs nutrients too.
Fish inhabitants. Blenny I caught myself, Pink Skunk Clown and the 3 Butterflyfish. The photo of the clown was taken when there was still a bit of cyano remaining.
Blenny is named Dot (Dorothy), Clown is Betty (going to get her an Al soon), and the Butterflys from top down are Salvador, Morse and Pyro. I am a naming tragic.
