Tank shots for 01 Aug 2010 partial side tank shot: strong flow caused gorgonians to tilt... Diagonal shot: (apologies for not cleaning glass before shoot) Frontal shot:

some zoas...

Update for 1 Aug 2010... FA (multi-stripe) + new purchase (YT)... FA = extremely aggressive... always fighting with every new inhibitant. YT = 1 day old... managed to established itself, now enjoying the abundance algae...

If it still has bubbles, then it's unlikely air intake. You may wish to check salinity level.

Nope. Marine is not only for the rich. Just like owning a car is not for the rich. It's all about prioritisation.

+1 for a kind gesture! Well done bro.

With good lights and sufficient iodide and magnesium levels, the colours will return.

1) think electrical and water bill 2) think water change, di unit, resins, carbon, salt... 3) think buying corals (how many, how much) 4) think "what ifs" power failure, overseas assignment, holidays... 5) think supplements, additivies, medication (if any), frag plug, gel glue, etc... 6) think stay up late just to hustle and bustle for chiong shipment 7) think buying fish (how many, how much) 8) think fish got ich how? Tank outbreak with cyano how? 9) think cost of equipment, sand, live rocks 10) think if you do not reef, and channel all your potential monthly expenditure into buying a monthly unit trust. You can easily afford another new house in 20years time! (for some, it could be in half the time). Oh well, actually just 2 questions... 1) got spare time? 2) got spare cash? Maybe a 3rd one, got a supportive other half?? If you do, it's half the battle won.

Lotz of mini carpet spotted at pinnacle. Prices ard 3.5 red. Green ones (maybe) cheaper. Still have a few Bright Lime green ones.

Beautiful scape Eugene. Time to add some simple sps. See you later.

Btw I'm dosing daily. I.e. Top up with Iwarna water and dose at the same time. (manual pouring). Amount abt 300-500ml. Plus weekly wc.

I'm using calcium and mag powder from brightwell aquatics. Kh powder from seachem. But lately I'm just using Iwarna top up water. So far it's able to maintain my parameters.

I actually have never tried top down shots (on corals) before. Maybe can try tonight. Must turn off pumps and wavemakers right?

jack... must visit you one of these days... do let me know when they are ready...

hahaha... that;s too flattering... i should post my cyano problem here, you'll see the huge problem i'm facing... diligent is surely not the word for me. haha.. but yes, i'm quite incline to dosing too... but dosing pumps are not exactly cheap either...

none... i manually dose currently... still cant decide whether to use CR or dosing pump (i do have a CR, but not hooked up as 1 component is missing).

some zoas... still expanding the collection....

thanx much... time for you to start your collection too... u've got enuff fishies...

The Montis.... can u spot the pink one that's out of sight...

just some updates... The millies...

jack! that's some fantabulous pink millies!!!! would you be considering to sell a frag?? (pm?)

Upz for u fuel bro. It's amazing how fast this one grows. From the 1 frag I had it's now 2 and very healthy. Like cedric's, the bright blue sheen can be seen clearly under bright lights. Clearly a must-buy if u like corals that sway with the waves.

Wah piang eh!! The first one looks absolutely stunning!!!! Shipment day... haha I hope so too bro. I can only make it for weekend shipments leh. Weekdays have to work. So must be really lucky, like last week. I was there practically alone, just nice got there when shipment arrived. I think my small 2.5' tank is almost full, need some minor rescape to make more space. And to Marc, yes it's real, olivia is indeed my wife's cousin. No kidding. Autograph ah, I've never thought of asking, but my wife helped a few of her colleagues in the past. you try to come my place during cny visiting, she'll usually be here.

Vert nice Midas! Mind pm me where u got it and how much??
