My only criteria is good cheap food

Bro hope you keep these 'good food' kopitiam threads coming! My gf always complains we always go to the same places all the time... give us more ideas where to go next time we have to scratch head

Waaah Jacky... u wanna start another 'src cross breed club' izzit?

Just wondering what I'm gonna do if I do manage to find one I like... going to leave for malaysia on fri early in the morning and back only on sun night. Maybe should reserve and collect on mon eh?

I guess it's either tues or thurs! I also dunno how to get there... prob have a direct bus there though. How about Thurs? less rush

Thinking of bringing my gf there sometime next week... Bro Gouldian any recommendations apart from the 3 dishes u mentioned?

yup i don't mind going down during lunch to take a look. can makan ard the area too! SL lunch outing tmr or wed maybe?

Thx bro Terryz for your recommendation. hmmm anyone going to SL on weekday? Jacky going?

Has yours exhibited it's territorial 'yawn' at other fishes when they wander into his territory? lol mine thinks the entire tank is his home...

cross finger for you, hopefully it fights it off!

looks like i can't join u guys for this one... going on a weekend trip to genting and kl. Have fun and help me look out for small, feeding powder blue tang! (~2.5")

bro would be good if you state a price so don't get low ballers. Nice package sales!

Seems like I see afew bros here with elegance placed on rocks. Just have to ensure that the flesh doesn't rub against the rocks. Sometimes risky coz you don't know how big the bugger will expand to. Elegance corals are actually quite common in LFS, can shop around for a healthy speciman. $ usually depends on size and colour. Common ones start from 2-3 red notes

Looking for feeding and stable small powder blue, ~2.5" is good. Any spotted in LFS?

I like the royal gamma! Always call mine 'the punk with a scar ard the neighbourhood'

how about doing a water change? I believe my water changes help me maintain my parameters, especially since i'm not keeping sps.

would be extra kiasu to dip all your corals. suggest not to do it unless you're in crisis management mode as you will be stressing your corals. err why u wanna dip your live rocks? wait u disturb the bacterial colonies and result in die-off, resulting in your bio filtration crashing, and whole tank crash?

Haha anything is better than my tank now la We should do it reddevil! Btw will meet u next wK k

must pay your tank a visit one of these days... really hope u wean them successfully to prepared food. Any alpha males in the pack?

I do wish someone brought in neptune controllers or aquacontrollers... more variety, especially for the more budget conscious reefer who would still like to invest in some technology toys.

Great news for mandarin lovers out there! Hopefully our LFS will be bringing them in at attractive prices

ORA Press Release March 25, 2010 ORA Announces Captive Bred Mandarins For many years marine aquarium hobbyists have been captivated by the exquisite beauty of Mandarin Gobies (actually Dragonettes). Their popularity, however, is tempered by the fact that they are difficult to feed in captivity and are subject to questionable collection practices in the wild. Unfortunately, most Mandarins succumb to starvation in home aquariums, even with the best intentions and attempts at feeding. Thankfully, all of that is about to change. ORA biologists have succeeded in developing the methods needed to breed and raise commercial numbers of the two species of Mandarins, the Blue Mandarin (Synchiropus splendidus) and the Spotted Mandarin (Synchiropus picturatus). Building on the early success of breeders such as Julian Sprung, Wolfgang Mai, and more recently Matt Wittenrich, ORA is now poised to have commercially bred Mandarins available to everyone. The significance of this cannot be understated as it is a major advance in marine aquaculture and solves many of the problems associated with keeping these species. Just as the first captive bred Seahorses were trained to eat frozen foods, ORA has already trained our baby Mandarins to eat commercially available frozen diets. This fact alone makes them easy to feed and care for, and the average aquarist will delight in not having to worry about sources of live food for their finicky eaters. Our goal is to have them soon weaned onto a pellet diet. We expect to have these fish eating pelletized foods before being released for sale. ORA is the leader in bringing the marine aquarium industry new and exciting aquacultured species. With the addition of Mandarins to our ever-growing list, a major milestone in aquaculture has been achieved. We are sure that our retail customers and hobbyists alike will be elated that captive raised Mandarins are finally available and that a page has been turned in the tragic history of this beloved aquarium fish. We expect to have significant numbers of Spotted Mandarins available this summer. Blue and Red Mandarins will be available in more limited quantities around the same time. Retailers attending this weeks Global Pet Expo in Orlando will be able to see our tank bred Mandarins at the ORA Booth #1773.
