  1. Hi Haha... I'll await your explanation why a newcomer to SRC at the very first post will use implied expletives on a member here. Please apologize to Maxima or I'll have to suspend your account. Your post is in violation of our terms and conditions of use. Please be friendly to people as a common courtesy. Achilles Tang Administrator
  2. I'm not angry... just a little annoyed that there was no SMS to at least tell me to wait or not to wait loh. Just like how some gal 'let go aeroplane' on the last two occasions. the last one somemore made me wait 1/2 hour!
  3. *must resist clicking the BAN BUTTON.... must... must... resist....*
  4. You don't get it and most people won't unless they are fishos and have seen a very popular illustration on the lighter side of this hobby!
  5. There would be one very HAPPY fisherman.
  6. I am using back Rowa... although the media is totally black... the residue is rust-coloured brown. I used to freak out over the dark rust-coloured water, now with my sump/skimmer routine, at least I know most of it is exported out of my sump into the collection cup (except the larger particles on my sump bottom).
  7. I heard of people tuning their reactors to get about 60dkh before! WOW!
  8. 50% should be ok provided your tank water parameters are not too skewed eg. very low or very high PH, temp or salinity. If you keep these within the normal recommended reef tank parameters, the new salt water should not cause any shock.
  9. It's a cousin of the three-eyed fish from The Simpsons, probably caught from the same river where Mr Burn's nuclear power plant is!
  10. I don't have his HP number (like that I have everyone's number in my hp... sure explode one). But I gave out mine in this thread leh.
  11. I just got back to the office... well... looks like the answer came thru... I know its a batfish but don't know the full name! Hhaha!
  12. JooLye, you didn't show up today!! I waited more than 15 mins for you past 1pm.
  13. Okie. I realise I have to leave the office immediately or I will have a few reefers beat me up if I don't show up for the T-shirt collection!! I'm outta here! Hope someone will come up with the right answer!
  14. You see the word 'inlet'... that's where the water is suppose to go in. Don't trust siphon, use a pressurized pump to bring water into the unit. I wrap my pump with floss, because from my experience, detritus will collect in your kalkreactor.. which is not good.
  15. Was gonna recruit you... but since you are easily distracted by SYTs... hmmm....
  16. I will be out of town this coming Sun to next Friday. Best to decide your pickup at the 2 LFS.
  17. I am dosing kalk via a Tubby auto water topup linked to a kalkreactor. It doses kalk at night when the lights are off to replenish water evaporation during the day to help increase calcium/alk while keeping my PH stable during the dark hours. I use an Iona industrial fan (smallest model 75w) to blow across my tank water surface. Evaporation rate is about 1 - 2 litres a day. You might want to consider a kalkreactor as well.
  18. Been using it for a long time. Upgraded from C1502 to C10002. I feed water in using a pump, both models.
  19. Actually, I have my eyes set on this new technology mask.... anyone heard of the Hydrooptix mask? It's really far out in concept but the view is 350 percent more than flat masks and an edge resolution 100 times sharper !!!! Check this out! If you're not excited... hmmm.... Hydro Optix masks here!
  20. I read that the AQUA LUNG Mythos got an excellent review. Anyone knows who's selling this locally?
  21. Kel, you are refering to the Tusa Visulator? Anto was recommending it to me... Is the mask very wide? I have a narrow face and small nose...
