wedgee

archie, to be honest with u, i learnt how to keep my hard corals alive thru the hard way - i had a kalkwasser incident, an NO3 spike (probably due to the kalk) and an over-salinity disaster...Bottom line is, invest in the best equipment u can afford first, before u go into SPS... Here are some pix i took today A rare green body, blue tipped colony (aquacultured)

WOW, didnt realise u guys were still lookin at my thread...makes me wana post more pics up heheh...stay tuned... ryz: hahah i TRY to get more mushies out for u heheh, and YES my tank IS PACKED.. patrick123: Thanx for yr compliments - yours can be nice too, if u put in the effort daily and be consistent As for the mushies, they too were upset and started to mati when i put in more lite bulbs, but after a while, and lowering them to the middle level of the tank, they started to multiply like mad - try putting them in moderate flow and lightin it helps... szesteve: Just kidding! I'm honored to be linked in an overseas webbie! Hmmm u shld read my tank specs heheh, it is abt a year plus old, and i use 4xT5 - the clams are okie with it but not as colorful as under MH to be honest! blacknails: Ya man, when i'm not: doing a water change/feeding corals, fishes/scrubbing the glass/topping up water/cleaning the light cover/clearing the skimmer, I love to stare at the tank and get blinded after 30 minutes of intense light and colors! Thanx again all, for the wonderful comments, makes my effort well worthwhile!

Wah the No Action Talk Only poster describing an officer really hit the nail for someone who has been thru 7 years of bloody SAF management!!!!

Wah this thread already pushed all the way behind...so many pple selling their stuff heheh..."PUSH BACK UP"

Hey, why u posted BEFORE asking me for permission??? Hahah just kidding...I'm flattered u actually put them up in yr local forum... Welcome to SRC - u are in Canada? I guess u posted cause of the results i am gettin from T5?? Another great example is of cos Danano's tank thread, featured as our SRC tank of the moment...

Ancelot: If i can spare at least 3 more of them blue mushies, i will PM u k? Dont worry they grow like weeds... Evil: Thanx for the compliments man, addin reflectors really enhanced the coral reactions... Kareen: Which clam u talkin abt? The 2 blue maxis i tink were $25 each when they babies, during the clam overflow season...the squamosa i tink was $45 or something... Jeff: Heheh too late leh cant change the title already - it WAS a budget tank to begin with really! but ure right, the effort was gigantic... Dan: Hey man, only we supporters will understand the powers and limitations of T5 heheh! JS: I try to take a pix soon...

Okie, me left with those 2 purple tip colonies, please PM or reply if u want to get any of them - $30 each now!

Hmm all want the monti frags...why the sudden interest in them hahah... Anyone taking the acro colonies? If u stay east or north (near Jalan Kayu) i can consider dropping it off at yr convenient location (at my convenient time tho heheh)

I selling them in a bunch probably, cause they keep committing suicide and landing all over the sandbed - just come over and i give u some for just a small token sum will do...

Both montis are reserved/sold, sorry...

wah so many pple recommend it maybe shld sell at $30 instead!?!?!? hahah...j/k

Ya its really super bright green huh? thanx for the upz

Oops another one... $30

Bro dont tempt me leh, I wana keep the lights and save on equipment upgrading, dats why use a 3x2x2.5....Also my new place cant accomodate a 4ft, cause it will block up walking space, so I'm sorta limiting myself hahah... chselee: Thanx for yr comments! The tank is abt 1yr plus i tink...

Collection is at Tampines, my place, or MRT station... Last for sale: A 2in frag of this greenish monti (cant remember the full name, its not a Cap.) $10 PS: the pix kept underexposing, so it is very dull here, but its actual color is very very flourescent...

hahah i realised it long long ago bro, just dat i didnt have a digicam to post the pix for sale...heheh Thanx for upz

A 2inch frag of this purple monti digi colony $8

Hi gang, gotta sell off some of my colonies/frags to clear valuable space and re-finance future purchases... Purple tip colony $35

Thanx Vic, it took alot of hard work, and not forgetting 'supportive' bosses like u! Mine is nothing compared to the pros with their 5 and 6ft tanks! Realised i missed out my favorite purple monti digi...

Thanx alot...

Everyone's favorite LPS....

Hungry Frogspawn...

The blue mushies dat keep multiplying and dropping off the rocks...anyone interested in buying a bunch?

Thanx lightning, hope to see u make a comeback soon - i remember yr tank was a fantastic one too! Ya its squeezed to the brim now, partly cause i'm using T5s and cant lower the sps, so i gonna sell some of them away... As for yr comments, the monti u talkin abt is the orange cap? I frag the dude often, so it doesnt affect the surrounding corals much, even tho it grows really fast... The 2 returns on the right are from a SCWD hidden above, and the left one is from the sump return and is pointed diagonally, not harming anything... Surprisingly, the 2 blue maxis on the rockwork are not fussy abt having T5 at all, and are keeping their coloration, but growing slower than the easier Squamosa on the rite... Here's a closer pic of the clams

Close-up of pinkish milli (thanx bro Creetin)
