Hmmm my experience is I've brought back 3 to 4 packs of freshwater fishes, shrimps and plants from Hongkong, and when the customs saw it on the X-ray machine, they just smiled and let me pass. I just hand carried it in a large paper bag. That was 2 years ago, though... I think if u bring in 1 to 2 bags (small ones of cos) and put it inside some hand carry luggage (try to put it together with 'gifts' from your trip). The customs pple shldnt be too excited...u can explain to them that the lifestock are a gift for someone? But dont take my word for it, i believe some guys here have been there and done it, so can wait for their opinion...anyways, i remember there was a discussion starting fr trying to bring in clams - might wana search for dat thread...

Hmmm pardon me if I'm wrong, but that tank at Reef Aquarius has mostly LARGE fish (big Tangs and stuff), and I didnt notice if he did keep any smaller ones... That would remove most of the dangers for them in keeping the lionfish. In yr case, I guess the gamma would be the no. 1 choice for its first meal? If yr Tangs and angels are larger than the lionfish (dwarf lions arent large, so i guess shldnt be a problem?), then I guess they wouldnt be in immediate danger. Just my 0.1 cent

SIGH...I dont know how or why this hobby affects the ego, but it seems that many "experts" love to assert themselves over the edge, while some are just too plain proud to admit their mistakes... This has disappointed me in some way, after I realised the 'political' problems pulling the hobby down...BUT, as Ian and Dinosaur and some others have demonstrated, this hobby is still full of sharing and simple passion!!!

Errr, that looks like a FL hood?

For those experienced fish-keepers: Can i keep this or other Tangs with Triggerfish?

Wooohooo, managed to find the site with more of these wacky MTVs!!! Thanx Kelstorm, for posting up the first one - got my clues from there... http://www.estudio.com/relaunch.htm *** Goto "Shows" -> "Regurge" -> "Episodes" Enjoy!!! -- Doesnt have the Backstreet Gay boys video though...

Oops forgot the pic...

Wah didnt know this starfish was from the circus previously!!!

Wah think they desperate to clear stock? Wat year is the model? I smell another newer model coming along...Myself and friends kena so many times their trap liao, always give tons of goodies, then come out with new model to make us vomit blood! Maybe u can check if Mit got newer Gallants, on the net? If its a new model, then i guess its quite a steal? Issit a V6 engine? How many L issit? If specs are good, then can consider? But remember got RAV4 and X-Trails going for approx same price too!!! And u can use these for so many occasions - comfy too! If yr budget ard 100K, then good luck, cause there are so many good deals going for this price, so do take yr time and lookit all the new models!!!

Hahahh i think yr not the only one hooked, so dont worry, we all have eyebags and daydream at work too! Just such a fascinating hobby with so much to see and learn - if only all of the people around us understood our passion ya?

Hmmm, as i have always been thinking; this policy is just another benefit to the Govt...Think of it this way: More cars, more COE, more ERP, more Road tax, more carpark fees...etc etc. For the banks; yay! another excuse to raise loan interests! (They have hit rock bottom in recent times, u see) Hahah but of cos there will be benefits to us as car owners i guess? If u interested in Mitsubishi cars, pm me, i have a nice guy whom i got my previous Lancer from...gave me and my friend free sports rims, CD changer and body kit... As for the rest of those cocky C&C sales staff...NO COMMENTS... If u really thinking of buying Mitsubishi, i think a Lancer will do, no need Gallant? Unless u like the stronger engine...

Grrr though they good for the tank they not good for me itchy hands!!! Always get spiked by their hairs, and gotta pull one by one out with a tweezer...OUCH!!!

Where did u get it dude? Any more stock left after u bot it? Thanx

??? Can the corals tell its a full moon when they're stuck in our tanks?

I salute yr bravery Iona...its not easy to get over the discouraging laughter and cynical remarks when it comes to something so special and challenging as Marine fishkeeping!!! Lets walk down this path together people!!!! Long live Marine!!!

EEEEEEEEK!!!!! ..."horror music playing in the background"... Wat fish was dat?

Me got one, its very very shy though...dont see it until i go behind the tank and peer behind a rock...

OOOoops....Hope her bf doesnt come after me with a DI filter stick! Sorry Polarie, didnt know u gal - but u can take the joke right?

Just thought I'd hijack the thread for a question: Wats the color temp of the blue 'actinic' on a 50/50 PL? Issit the same as the white side? Or issit higher? Does it produce just as much PAR as the white side?

Unfortunately, camel shrimps are not peppermints...Peppermints are shaped more like CS, but have similar coloration to the Camels. Peppermints are supposedly great aiptasia eaters, but local no stock watsoever (wrong region?). Camels on the other hand, have a reputation for picking on corals (or so i read...). They do look great though? Especially when they do their kinky 'dance'??? Peppermints:

Eh harlow gang, me couldnt even confirm if she is a gal sia, so didnt think much...btw how u all know!?!?!?

Might as well sell everything and run around in yr underwear hahahahh

Ya, when i put my hands in, the skimming goes down...but when i feed BBS or stuff, the skimming increases (thats y i switch it off when i feed - is this ok?)

Well couldnt resist chipping in here: For those complaints and incompetencies that we ALWAYS see, and continue to see; THEY ARE HERE TO STAY!!! Why? Cause all BIG BROTHER agencies and linked companies (including those they claim to be pte ltd) have the same lousy management and attitutde: If something bad happens, then correct it... And who are the people behind all these lousy attitudes? The so called 'cream of the crop' top level management. They are the ones who get max pay, least work. But they have a great responsibility though - that is to ACT. Act busy, Act efficient, Act like true professionals... And the disease spreads downwards the chain of command...
