Wa, it's that obvious huh... Coral 1: Black Sun (about 15 heads or more) - piang eh, it's so difficult to photograph them... Coral 2: Pink Sun (about 8 heads) - pink one is a little bit more stubborn, didnt managed to see it opening. Coral 3: Super sun (about 10 heads) - at the time of posting, it is showing some tips... Fish: You are right again! It's a Red Head Fairy Wrasse You've got all the questions correct! Let's try to meet up sometime this week, so i can collect the K2 and you can collect your prize... An autograph picture of my tank! muahahaha...

Hai, cannot tahan lah... went to a few LFS earlier this afternoon... as much as i knew i was going to rescape + shift tank.. i still couldnt stop myself from buying 3 more corals + 1 fish.. hehe. No pix yet, coz i had a minor screw up while trying to place the corals. Tried to shift the corals around, and drop a few others. Guess my corals contest: Coral 1 and 2 (same species different colour) Coral 3 (a better version of Coral 1 and 2) Fish 1: Hint: it's multi colour, aerodymanic-ly shape. Any guesses, will try to place pix once the corals open up... maybe must try to 'lure' it to open... keke... Going for dinner liao! woo hoo..

Hey Reefme, thanks so much, should have gone around to look see look see, coz i usually just go ah beng and just leave liao. thanks again.

Wa, it's worse when working lor... sometimes i can't sleep till like 5am.... always end up super late at work. Not very good, coz feels so pai sei when i step into the office, especially when i have to walk past my juniors... bad example... now im trying to force myself to wake up no matter what... at most later go toilet and hide to take a quick nap. hahaha.

Wa Piang eh, dun scare me like this leh! Im sure wilson the hogfish is very resourceful (just like wilson tha man). hahaha... Thanks for adopting the candy hog, now i can buy new fish liao (which i obviously did today!)

Beng's got 2 types... 1) the grown up type (where yo can see the whole sea monkey) - usually $3 per pack. 2) small tiny, ones... where you can see tiny things swimming, but can't figure what it is... (usually selling at $2 per pack).

Ah beng shop sells those newly hatch brine shrimps for $2 per pack... am sure its enuff for the hatchlings. Me also going to bed liao.. tomorrow sure stoned whole day. Good luck dude... i share your excitement! Congrats once again.

Precisely lor... now doing all the planning first. Luckily today never shift the tank, else sure major problem. Eh, simi si union joint? Actually im thinking of not using PVC piping... i.e. just purely use egg crate to form the rack. The racks must be ready before next Sat. Rockscape will be drawn out before sat as well. The white container will be used to store water + corals + fish that i can catch... for those that i cant get, will leave them in main tank. If they die, too bad... my YT and BT will definitely be rescued. Pails will be prepared to store as much water as i can... for those cannot, will just throw away, and do salt mix. Save as much water as possible... Will time myself how long it takes to shift the tank + rescape... from the moment i shut down the main return pump. (1hr to offload corals, empty water + shift? + 2 hours rescape?) The remainder time is for rescape (trial & error). But as long as i have a good sktech on what to do, it's about selection the right rock for the rick structure.

Bro... simply lovely man! Am sure you're enjoying this moment! Seems like the fries are quite big leh. Have you thought of what food to feed them?

Wow, congratulations!!! Really excited for you bro! Must show us pictures when u have them ready. Gong Xi Gong Xi.

Ah... aquastar, i know where that is! But really got black egg crates ah? I've never seen b4... dun later i go and ask kena laffed by ppl ah. hahaha... Cable ties i got, should be enough. As i'm not buying alot, guess i'll just buy from the normal hardware shops lah... For the eggcrate, i think can use normal pliers to cut thru. (i cut this before). You everything tool/equipment also have one ah? Is there something you don't have? haha... Anyway, i pai sei to trouble u ah, (coz a bit far leh, woodlands), so, most prob, i'll jsut get from around my place. Thanks a lot bro! Hopefully with a better plan, i can finish the shifting + rescaping all within 1 day. (So, tentatively, next saturday will be The Day!)

yeah, i read about it, tats during/after ur uni days? Thought you would have recovered... For me, i tend to sleep only when im totally exhausted... always enjoy watching tv while researching on the Net for stuff. Thanks for the advice, will try to drop by C328 when i can.

Thanks a lot bro! (Wa, do you actually sleep? haha) Those 'self-attached' ones... are they like those 'click-into-place" air-fix or lego type? Does any LFS/shop in the east side sells these? Coz if it's C328, i can only go during weekdays. Once again, thanks very much for the prompt reply.

Hi Everyone, im trying to build some 'racks' out of egg crates and pvc pipes e.g. Is there anyone who can spare me some? or can tell me where i can get them? Actually am only trying to build just one such rack. (approx. 15"l x 5"b x 5"h) Q: Is a full egg-crate rack as strong as one with PVC pipes plus egg crate? Coz the rock that i'm placing on it, is a super heavy 1 piece boulder size rock. It's my first time building such a rack lah. thanx.

Bro, you're right man! the total volume is definitely less than 300. Coz got rocks + the tank is not filled to the brim! In anycase, i'll definitely be shifting the tank. My spare LRs are now cycling in tub liao. 3 nice pieces... 2 nice flat pieces plus 1 long bar... Bro, ask you ah... I need to make some 'racks' out of eggcrags + pvc pipes. (yeah, trying to DIY something, haha). Something like this: Do you know where to get the eggcrates + pvc pipe(with cutter) + connectors (cheap cheap ones).

Is it frogspawns?? Frogspwans have 'multiple' heads extending from each tentacle... mine is 1 head per polyp leh. (Is it differentiated this way ah?) Should be a torch, according to liveaquaria.com... Or have i been misled??? Hahaha... Storage for LS is no problem, i got a big tub (just bought, about 80litres). Corals + fish sure okie. Problem is, water how? Store where? hahaha... Total tank volume of 300l (main+sump)... dunno how sia. So, once water comes out, it's a lot easier liao. (Think should be able to shift the tank with the LR + a bit of water). See how lah... this weekend too late to do any shifting liao. Will try again next week. Slowly move the corals out bit by bit.

Hahah... so you named it after me huh... haha... Good to see that it's doing well. Hogfish swims very fast, and hides very well. So don't think it'll become ur lion's food. Do try the food that i passed to you (not a lot lah), but good enough for you to let ur fish try it.

B.I.T.C.H. collected. Thread closed.

Hey, hope the B.I.T.C.H is doing okie with your tank... remember to acclimatise before throwing it into the "lion's den".

5. 2ft 55W white PL opal - bought $40 - selling $20 Am interested in the above item. Can you send me a pic of your PL light? (with casing/stand?) Most importanly what tube does it have currently? Actinic? Collection point?

i certainly hope it'll start opening in full glory soon. currently, the pink + orange tips are not exactly lighting in luminous....

Again, as dynamic as life... i've decided not to be impulsive and shift the tank today. Guess i should plan for it better before i do it... (e.g. prepare water change at the same time, cultivate spare LR for bacteria... etc etc... thanks to the many reefers for their advice). So, for now, just a little update to my little reef. The growth of my RBTA... Since moving out of the cave, it's now slowly opening up. Nowadays can see the bubble in the red bubble tip... A small frag of my pink zoas now standing in the middle of the area, just behind the blue/green crocea (just to show contrasting colours). Ooooo... bright new mushies with 2 new rics (one peach, one pink) My new purchase last night... Is this a torch or octo? Apparently it has like purple tentacles with pink/orange tip. After selling off the lobo (sigh...), this is what the FTS looks like now... hopefully the mushies and zoas populate fast... FTS 080329 Comments and Criticisms are welcomed...

hahaha... hey, no worries abt the ride. Not say you stay jurong or sembawang. tampines onli mah. Thanks very much for your advice... i think eventually, i will not be shifting to tank... today went to my first 'chiong shipment'... hehe... check out my thread for updates...

Sold, collected at 3am (hehe... sorry to make you stay up so late yah) ... quite sad now. It's really a healthy and nice piece... buyer happy, seller... wallet happy, but somehow feels very sad. To buyer (if you wish to identify urself): i will definitely want to visit you and take a look at my err.... your lobo and your tank soon. Thread closed.

Hi, Thanks for the very nice stuff and discount! Upz for your sales... hopefully one day, i can find time to 'chiong' shipment with you! cheers wilson
