Paul
and Pam started reefkeeping many years ago, with a 6x2x2
tank, lit
purely by T8s. Paul was one of the first to grasp the idea of
cramming
in lot of flourescent tubes under the hood for keeping light-loving
corals, an idea since improved as technoogy has improved
with T5 lighting (a good example of this can be seen here).
Paul & Pam’s
current tank is a whopping 10' x 3' x 2' and is probably
one of the most stunning reef tanks in the country today. Paul
admits
it looks it’s best when he keeps his hands out of it, but
can’t help
playing around with his tank, after all it’s his hobby!
What
is very impressive is also the quality of the fish living
in this tank, who are no doubt as healthy as fish can be.
There are soft corals, clams and brains but it's the SPS
that Paul loves most, and there is up to a hundred
colonies here.
