This is cool ... courtesy of Popular Science Just In Time For Spring Break, Water-Powered Jetpack Finally Goes On Sale Waterskiing is so passé. This summer, you’ll be able to fly with Raymond Li’s water-powered jetpack, which is going on sale in March. It’s only $99,500! The JetLev jetpack consists of a lightweight fiberglass backpack connected to a hose that sucks up water. By separating the engine and its fuel from the backpack, Li was able to drastically reduce the backpack’s weight and therefore the amount of thrust needed to get airborne. The device’s thrust-to-weight ratio is three times better than that of a fighter jet, according to New Scientist. The jetpack produces 430 pounds of thrust, letting its pilot fly forward at 22 mph and reach heights up to 30 feet. “It's the same reaction force a firefighter experiences when he points a water jet at a fire,” says Li. But it’s much more easily controlled — the pilot can use hand controls to adjust the water pressure to make precise movements. The jetpack was on display this week at a boat show in Germany, and it will be available for purchase starting in March, with a $99,500 price tag. New Scientist says initial sales will likely come from resorts and rental agencies. But it could prove useful for water rescues, marine inspections and even peackeeping missions, Li says.

what gems ? hehe next monday come in first with them desi, to check, then if ok bring gems on tuesday if not ....

nice, really swimming tank for your fishes. your true octo is standing out, quite big compared to the rest haha

iphone app which seems to be used by quite some forums now ... not sure if iphone only

agree, the maxspect led will be good for you. and you may want to consider 160w model. will also give 'some' control over the leds compared to the PARs, and single mounting / plug compared to multiple for PARs.

reborn got philippine shipment today

maybe can try with your existing fishes already also dunno if they are infected or not ... maybe got but resistance is ok and water params ok as well, so not much harm being done, but still need to remove ... ?

haha. but he did liked my supers so much that i had to let him go

i wonder what are those other brands you could not make out ... can be other cheap ones ... or even more expensive ones, but still coming from the same Polar distillation plant

thanks again bro. i don't seem to have this problem now, so it is just to add to my reference cheers !

and you do this for treatment only, or maintenance as well ?

bro, with such, means this bacteria may be present in the water itself ? and i assume it's contagious that can spread to all other fishes. in such case, other than treating the fish, would need to do WC ? thanks.

btw, where to get praziquantel bro, and how do you soak ?

saw this in fish farmacy ... sorry fro your loss bro

good tip .... thanks bro

cool ... bro, on the parasites, is this also a normal thing for them in the wild ? and once de-wormed, needs to be done again later ?

yeah, i've read some deaths even only a few days. but on the other hand some are successful. they bury in sand at night ?

haha ... i would agree to this. saw my flagfin bite my torch once, and believe me you can see how awful it tasted to him ... like he was hit by a truck ! after that, never touched it again

wow, really sweet looking bro saw your name on glassbox this morning

nice desi. what's the dimension of the iq5 ? and what filter media (enough space?) did u put in ? cheers !

i just rinse under tap water. i've tired using those long arm-length thick coralife aqua-gloves, but i think they're more for major scaping and not really for handling small corals because it's really thick ! i just use those plastic hand gloves can be bought from ntuc or shop and save (box of 50s or so), wash them with my hands as well. gives some slight level of protection as long as not punctured, and ease of handling. then after, wash with anti-bacterial soap and throw the gloves ! cheers !

Cedric place is WYSIWYG - What You See ... I Want ... Yes !!! GET !!!

whew, thos eare nice ones vincent ... good catch

quite a unique scape bro and still a lot of space to raid Cedric's frag tanks haha ...

any success ?
