  1. I see, fortunately I have never seen my angels do that. What you said will put me off keeping tangs though
  2. has anyone experienced this? where a tang uses the sharp spike on the tail fin to injure other fishes
  3. Yeah, but thing that worries me most though is the pressure per square meter on the flooring due to the water pressure generated by the height. I was told that if I want to install a 10x3x3 that could be done with no problems though. But with risks associated with such weights I wouldn't want to take that risk unless absolutely sure haha. Any structural engineers here?
  4. yes, I know they aren't. what I meant to say was that the fish can be sent to the customer in the SG context due to lack of space.
  5. I was told by my condo management that they feel it exceeds the weight loading, though they aren't exactly sure what it is. However I am going to contact the original developer for information on the floor loading capacity. I really want to do this!
  6. I live in a second floor condo, and was wondering if anyone else has set up a high tank. Any issues with the flooring pressure? I'm thinking of going for a 5 foot tank with 6 foot length and 3 foot width.
  7. Anyone kept this fish? Suitable for keeping with angels?
  8. Let's hope for interesting shipments this week! Anyone seen radioactive poccillopora?
  9. definitely, bottom line is that there still are bills to be paid. some sort of passive income is essential if one is to run a startup full time. not to say I'm pessimistic or what, but my idea is that when people go into a business, they must go in with the mindset of being prepared to lose whatever money they have sunk in, instead of dreaming big from the get go. always unforeseen bottlenecks and stuff especially when one is new in the biz.
  10. yeah, couldn't agree more. its more about learning how to run a business at this stage.
  11. Haha now I'm thinking of starting a small project locally. Investment is not substantial.
  12. yeah. from what I understand he could not maintain it as he had a full time job as well.
  13. wow, your bulbs sure look groovy! I'm thinking of going into orchid culture and marine aquaculture. Currently looking for partners
  14. perhaps the lfs of the future here will be like live aquaria, where the fish is sent to the customer and ordering is done online due to lack of space. not sure if this has been done before locally
  15. sounds interesting, what are those bulbs for?
  16. it wasn't a judgement bro, it was a question
  17. I wonder if de jong gets from them. That is true, I believe most will be forced into shophouses
  18. Hi, I want to check how many of you are have a small business, or are planning to start one. Its always great to network with fellow reefers! Would be nice to know what business you are in/planning to go into!
  19. I see haha. Well they are interesting! I saw a huge fossil fish once in china and would love to have one in my room.
  20. Is that really true? I heard CF stopped their construction business because marine was getting more profitable for them. Their revenue easily exceeds 1mil per annum.
  21. Very good analysis bro. I guess CF might be able to do so due to its extensive stocklist and act as a one stop shop like you mentioned. What I really wonder though, is what happens to the stocks that have low turnover. For example they bring in x fish and it isn't sold in a month. How do they get rid of it?
  22. From what I heard, some LFS such as CF and Iwarna earn up to 90% of their income through exports. This sounds strange to me as where are they going to export to? Many of the richest buyers live in Japan, Taiwan and HK, and they all have a huge amount of exotic imports that they source on their own. Unless our LFS actually export to them?
