My 13 gallon and 50 gallon reef tank

I started reef keeping just a few months back. I posted this to seek advice and suggestions to all reef keepers and for future reference.

Thank you shout out to:
1. Grahf11. For selling such beautiful and healthy corals! And providing tips every time we're at your place. My favorite weekend visit is your place now! haha
2. Aquareef. For the Jecod wavemaker. I really like this wavemaker, its quite affordable yet the current it creates is strong and adjustable.
3. Peter. Without him, we won't know about Reef Philippines and all the info shared by everyone.


I started with my 13 gallon tank. As a beginner, dami ko mistakes nagawa (a couple of fish and 2 corals nawala T_T ). Sayang nga lng hindi ko na record ung initial months. Pinabayaan ko lng sya like 2-3 months (1 yuma survived), and then started putting live stock again.

Here is my 13 gallon tank. Started on March Shots taken using Iphone4.


First sign of life! Suprised, A Bristle Worm (one of the CUCs that I wish to have) was born. Month of April


Another creature born inside my tank. Longspined Urchin.


Bubble Coral


My Pink Yuma that survived during the cycle


Blue Yuma


3rd Yuma


zoa


blasto


GSP


Green Plate Coral

Hi sesame1. Good to see you've finally started your own tank thread I can see that your Livestocks are pretty much all
doing fine. I would suggest that you do not overstock this tank further due to it's size constraints. Am glad that you're satisfied with the wavemaker, thanks! I also would like to warn you not to frequent Grahf11's place..... he has a very jealous GF! Joke! Peace Bro Grahf11 Good luck & keep us updated!

Livestocks are looking good.
Haha oo ingat ingat pag pumupunta dyan kay grahf...lalo na pag mababa ang EQ di makapigil sa pagbili. Hahaha. Joke lang grahf11.

Thanks aquareef!!! Yup, me and my BF plan to transfer all of the corals to the 50 gallon when its cycle is finally complete. And this 13 gallon will be the refugium. Will post pics soon. Pero iniisip pa namin pano ililipat ung 2 clownfish, ang liksi na kc e! haha pero super friendly sila, hindi na takot, kc nung ni reach down ko ung corals, they were nipping my hand parang ung goldfishes ko nun!

ay ganun ba, sige next time visit namin, hit and run na, pagka bili bayad na agad then alis na. hahaha joke lng!! peace!!!

hahaha mga hunghang! nako baka maniwala naman sa inyo sila sesame nyan! paki pardon nalang sa dalawang yan sesame malikot talaga mga utak ng mga yan hahaha.

it is nice to know na ok naman lahat ng corals mo except dun sa blue and last yuma. yung blue nakalabas bituka sa gitna sign lang ng stress yun baka kakalipat mo lang nun? yung last yuma naman medyo maliit. looks like it can recover pa naman. blastos and zoas mo are good and yung surviving yuma is the best conditioned one! keep up the good work!

[weekdaywarrior]

nice tank sesame.

mabaet talaga yang si sir GrAhF11 at totoong mapapagkatiwalaan.

Nice scape! Magandang punuin yan ng zoas sa mid part at gawa ng blasto garden sa bottom

hahahahah!! kakatuwa naman kayo mglokohan!

Yeah, ung picture sa blue and 3rd yuma medyo bago pa nung pagkuwa. Pero medyo worried pa rin ako kc ung blue nakalabas pa rin ung bituka until now. So nilagay ko na muna sya sa baba kung saan mas lower lighting and less water flow, ok lng pag ganun? Yaay, buti na lng sa zoas, blastos and lalo na dun sa pink yuma ko! favorite ko pa naman yun!! heheh dami kc nangyari dun e Thank you

Thanks!! hehe pero eventually gagawin ko na lng sya refugium, kc lahat ng corals lilipat ko na sa 50 gallon tank ko pag tapos na cycle nya... lapit na! soon... ahahaha

[GrAhF11]

ah matagal na yun ah baket kaya may labas pang bituka. sige try mo nalang din ilagay dun sa lower light and mas mahinang flow and see if mag expand na. wag mo lang masyado din galaw galawin kasi nasstress din sa galaw ng galaw yan haha.
