Last ones. Vanuatu was ok, but few storms over the last few years have wiped out a lot of coral, and visibility isn't great (depending on what area of course). I would absolutely recommend New Caledonia. Lifou, Ilse De Pines are outstanding.

Some more.

Went on a Cruise recently, got some snorkelling done in Vanuatu, Fiji and New Calediona. Some pics..

Thanks Len, yeah the Trachyphyllia sp only went in yesterday, so not much movement yet, same with my plate coral, tenticles not expanding at all yet.. Thanks for the advice and the big tank will be ready thats for sure.

Heres the Brain, not sure what type though any ideas? Should I put it on the sand or not? Its about half way up at the moment.

Hey fellow reefkeepers, Ive been a bit slack with my reefkeeping lately but decided enough was enough, I TOTALLY cleaned my tank, did a few water changes and bought a new filter, then finally got onto a metal halide for my 90Litre tank. its 150 watts so Im looking at around 6x the watts per...

nice work if you got those fo peanuts, some nice specimans. IMHO i think you have there some start polyps, (or zooanthids) do they come out or are they stayin closed?> Yes thats def a brain there, looks like a Platygyra sp., could be wrong though. And the third one is a mushroom, has it...

I bought one a week ago and mine does the same, at first I thought he was dead and I put the flash light on him and he scooted out of the hole, then back again later to sleep on his side, really cool actually. been watchin me sleep i think and thought what the hell! just normal behaviour as far...

just one more on the wet/dry, everyone has there own opinions but personally i think it will be fine, you don't have enough Live Rock in there to do all the natural filtration so it will help. as time progresses just start taking out a few bio-balls as you go and check the params of the tank as...

i wont do a formal welcome to this site im sure len or one of the other guys will but welcome from myself anyway. Your off to a good start, personally i would get the damsel out of there as they are nothing but trouble in my eyes, i had a neon damsel not long ago and it killed two dwarf angels...

notice how he won't reply! i think we have scared him off, maybe he has got some sense knocked into him! i would like to know how long that blue tang has been there, because his life is about to become much shorter.. get all three of those fish out of there, im surpirsed the BTA has survived...

they will be fine if they have their own hiding places. the hawk will get along with everyone, and the firefish i would add first, then as you said slowly add from the least aggresive to the most so they can all establish there areas, a 250g should be plenty of room for more than 6-7 fish i have...

only this morning did i pull all of my LR out of my 29gal to get the little terror out, since he had been in there he has harrased to death two dwarf angels, and thought he owned the whole tank. he would chase them around for hours, but considering you have the bicolour dotty, im not sure what...

thanks for your help, i was wondering why it was doing so well, i dont have any magnificent lighting and it has been going strong for 6 months now. thanks again
