u made a good choice... whether needlewheels better or becketts better.... debate hasn't ended with a proper test yet... but definitely one will not go wrong with a big skimmer of either technology/method... for others, the ev240 is a great skimmer....using it myself....

joining the beckett family? ...upz for your sale

haha..boss ..u ah today good mood ah... can sense you very bubbly today:lol: anyway thanks for the shells advice, i got those decorative ones already... but kinda scared they are so shiny that wait scarly genna coated with enamel or watever....dunno safe to use or not...

anyway, back to future plans...dunno should start 2ft cube or not... comparing 250W DE to 400W SE, 400W SE still wins hands down ah, been reading around...but still can't find any good urls that can compare the 2

hehe..no lah boss..of coz got other factors mah... wat i meant is that AP has mentioned it before....been waiting anxiously for the MHs to arrive..so can start sps so i am just telling AP to patient abit lor...when it comes..then can start doing what has been waiting all along to do....start sps like dat say got wrong ah boss...hehe

yeah.. i am sure all of us spent more in this hobby than we initially budgetted for... that's why when i get PMs asking me how much i spent...i told them i really dunno, coz i know once i start adding all of them up....sure gets depressing knowing that this kinda money can add up to obscene numbers and then when you look around at the more needy people around you...especially after seeing the families of the nicoll highway on tv...you will tend feel guilty at the luxury items we have spent on.... so now i control and tahan as much as i can...even tell myself to sell unnecessary things in my system if i want to buy other stuff for my system...hehe weileong, you have a camera that i am still drooling about....yeah...i had a f717 that i thought was pretty good last time, but to hear the digital SLR shutter open and close is just ecstasy...

weileong, heng you control the size of your tank...if you get a 6fter or 8fter...u can easily spend double of me... imagine weileong can go mustafa after midnight just because the thought of the camera sprung to his mind and he cannot wait till the next day to get his D70... a 2k plus toy dun even have to consider and ask around....buy just like dat.... very elastic budgets around here

yeah..maybe mix your tank in the balcony with damsel's budget lor coz although i never seen damsel's tank before...from the pieces of info i pick up here and there.....somemore now you say aquatechnic tank, 30k is not surprising definitely... but if you say 30k on your tank system, then you must have kept the very expensive equipment away from your tank thread....coz i cannot see 30k in the pics you posted so far...dun be humble...show us all your toys then again..now that you mentioned...maybe i also spent near that amount....i always say that i dun count how much i have spent......geee... sure hurts to know that if already spent 30K...can already buy half a vios for my darling

maybe got some crouching tiger hidden dragons around here lor.. u fit the balcony description lah.... but have you spent 30k so far? if not, then maybe the lfs mix and match the wrong information.... wah 30K..can really do a very big and nice stocked up tank

dun worry, lights sure come soon , you never go pester your MH supplier ah.... never mind lah...meanwhile can stock up with other corals and fishes lor...when the MH comes....booom....can start sps liao

tank in balcony i am sure you are not the only one though, but 442 tank amongst all the nice walls and flooring...most probably you lah but hor...really 30K on the tank? your MH haven't come leh....haven't included that right? but then again....4x4x2 tank havent stock up already 30K ah...i would be really curious the breakdown of the 30K...really impressive figure

wait till you are fully stocked up liao... i am sure he will go over and macro all your sps and tangs

he did fragging some time in dec/jan.. nowadays busy with other stuff....so not really into fragging now

nice pics... next time i make sure my glass is squeeky clean before u come and take pics

actually i never kept xenias before or know alot about them... but i do believe that there are white pumping xenias.... woonming fragged them before even, he should be able to tell you more about xenias

its nice to see the 3 of them swimming together... that is really left, right, center

seriously facing the possibilities of it dying not long after purchase is something i may not be able to handle also even if it comes besides, bro deepblue mentions correctly that since it's from the zebrasoma family, probably hardy as well....rare yes, but not a challenge to keep

every tang is common nowadays bubblegum.. unless u are going for a gem tang...then i will say you will be one of the very very few

grown quite abit since before chinese new year when i got them

congrats on the school/shoal of orange shoulders more family shots of them please....let us know which is dad, mum and child congrats again

nice elegance

yeah man.. their poo are as big as neon gobies

thanks ancelot... many reefers here with nice tangs around, tangs are very interesting fishes

i always like to have those sunken ancient divers helmet in a tank.... hehehe.. but i think i dun want to deprive the space for more corals on the sandbed..hehe for Fish-only tanks will be nice though...

if u tahan till my one splits...u can have the split off one....foc...tat time i told you till now...haven't split....just kept growing bigger and bigger... once it split i ask u come over and take...so maybe u buy other corals lor...wait too many anemones in the tank next time...
