  1. yup...a lot of DIY i will need to do...stay tune. My mind already planning how to lay out the rocks.
  2. yup...will be bringing back the cabinet also...just have to get wood paint and laquer to restore the condition. i was already planning for a 3footer...but since bino has this offer and for past few days, no one take up...must well loh...
  3. yeah! i knew it!....the design of the sump tank and the layout of the cabinet are their trademarks! just in time to stock up b4 CNY for yr friends and relatives to drool! wat sort of skimmer will you be using?
  4. Sweet!.... Lots of big rocks....looks like its from AM?
  5. jacky, you really that "old" liao ah?....at least beta than coffeeshop pple call me xiao di.
  6. dun ask me...i m not one of those with x-ray eyes...haha...
  7. wahahaha....you joker lah bro....talk ###### king...you beta not spoil the reputation of the name "Peter"....
  8. b4 you buy, you have to request for it...of course price is gonna change. after you buy, and you want to change, dr evil will have to take yr set and change them to CREE and charge you extra loh...haha..i think it will cost 20%-30% more.
  9. haha...no lah....i think i am going to be newbie all over again as i m very new to IOS system. It's like going back to national service...can't imagine that. moreover, this is a leap from a 2ft nano to a 4footer....i dun think i can change water every 2-3 days as wat i m doing now...lol
  10. yes...i faced the same problem....sometimes one or 2 heads will melt..after that it will stop...cannot be help. i believe it has to do with water quality...they tend to do better in clear, low nutrient waters.
  11. usually you have to take some calculated risk when you go there during shipment day itself for zoas...usually those laojiao reefers will know how to choose even though they have not open...but for the start just have to tee-kum.
  12. haha...just trying not to spend too much on this new tank at one shot...very painful on my wallet ma. Anyway, latest updates: 1. CO approved, chopped stamped confirmed! 4x2x2..no bullshit. 2. Confirmed collection from binosage office on 27Feb. 3. Check out LFS in chinatown for stand and call weiquan for quote. (today) 4. To confirm sgbros delivery. (today) Cheers!
  13. it's always easier to travel around not just to LFS with a car...moreover, OPC is good for pple who do not need to drive to work...esp when your office is rather convenient via mrt...with the heavy traffic every morning and expensive parking...not worthwhile to drive to work...unless u work in those industrial areas like tuas, jurong island, woodlands, loyang..then bo bian. and sometimes...with the things u buy from LFS, you can't possibly take a bus or mrt back...and if you take a taxi to-and-fro from your house to LFS farms...can cost you $30-$40 already.
  14. budget really tight....coz i need to get new lightings...4ft is no joke compared to 2ft. Still have to order nsw and rocks and return pump, 2nd hand chiller + chiller pump....besides the stand. Skimmer probably will come later...have to c the compartment first...if not going for skimmer...will use refugium method...which means have to buy miracle mud...not cheap after adding all these things big n small...not using credit.
  15. actually its also a good thing my wife is not a reefer...watever i buy she dun know the actual cost. but she knows i go to golden octopus to get my corals...and its not some niteclubs...coz i know there's a bar called golden bamboo around lavender....
  16. AV quite near my place...there used to be a LFS there but boss convert biz to selling antique furniture. Dun try the romanian food there...sucks! Last time after i go to ML & JM, i will stop by that place to take a break b4 heading home.
  17. Comycus: haha...if i can afford...but i m ok with iron...at least i get to see everything is running smoothly..that's the plus point. Jacky: yup..will make sure my customised stand is meant for marine tanks. 2-3 yrs enough for me to consider another upgrade. Also dun know whether by then my CO wants to sell the flat and move to a bigger place....u know lah...women when they c their friends buy condo, they also want.... Updates: 1. Logistics more or less settled. Have contacted sgbros. 2. Wait for binosage reply to c whether sgbros can come on 27 feb morning. 3. CO has more or less approved...that's most impt. 4. Fresh n marine can customised the stand for me.
  18. i just threw away an ikea book plus tv shelf...the wood is bending so badly the middle part is going to touch my floor soon. CMI...
  19. ok...but then i need to customise to make the height lower...those std ones in LFS may not have suitable ones...nonetheless will check the one in chinatown.
  20. budget tight...haha...i wonder those ikea wood can make it...but i have to diy...that's the sianzation part. the iron stand are the thick ones...its quite alright...probably order from fresh n marine, edmund. coz my tank is in the kitchen area...so its ok...if in the living area, then its not asethetic.
  21. once u see the performance of cree...hur hur...u will know the difference dude
  22. haha...10,000 pages!...and by the time i hit 200, probably lemon will email to me to cut down or start charging me for each page.
