hi every one the names dave, just thought i better had introduce myself before i start. :D
i am new to marines and have a very basic setup which has been running for six months without any problems, i keep soft corals and a few fish.
1 pr tomatoe clowns
1 yellow goby
1 dwarf angel- chaetodontoplus caeruleopunctatus
the dwarf angel doesnt look like any pics on the web so i will post a couple of pics to see if anyone can identify it for me, it has a deep purple velvet appearance with a white tail and a reddish head with electric blue borders to the anal and pelvic fins, any ideas please let me know
cheers:confused:

Great pics by the way, I can see your not going to let us down on that front.

membrane was shot:( , giving out 120TDS after an hour of flushing.
Pump and the other 2 canisters have been put together with my old system, and I now have an 8 stage RO unit:D
