hehe....thanks man if possible and time permits, next time i go with you whenever you buy fishes, another pair of eyes, can spot good fishes more easily

thanks bro... no lah...many low profile reefers around with greater tanks and greater tangs...hehe I am just 班门弄斧 in here....meaning just fooling around in here with my amateur reef trying to make it look pro ok bro...soon i will ask you to come up my place with your Canon G5.. and a series of photos called... Roidan's Reef with Deepblue's Canon G5..... I will be very honoured to have your presence standing in front of my reef

maybe not bro will try to wait for a bigger black next time so that can stand up to the YT and look straight in his eyes and say *look here fellow zebrasoma....i am not a pushover...now it's your turn to face the dark* anyway, din make a loss releasing him as i told you, so i felt quite happy that at least he can find another tank that hopefully he can swim openly and not keep hiding...which isn't good long term wise to keep hiding also...hope i made the right decision the prof i think keep in my room lah.....at most....if the 2ft cube is up, then put prof inside the 2ft cube...with the gem tang? wow, that would be a dream

congrats

weileong: just so happens maybe they know they are more photogenic at that angle... so they slow down in that direction for you to snap...then they faster u-turn at the end of the tank and the swim to the other end, u-turn again..and then do a slow swim at that angle once again for you... kidding lah.... i also dunno why

i often feed my fishes till they are quite used to seeing people around already... but today you aim a rocket launcher at them...so they turn more panicky....but if you feel that they are already quite cooperative, imagine their willingness to pose for me when you are not around..hehe... the yellow tang is a damn interesting character, the fiercest bully of newcomers, but is afraid of humans the most, me included

actually the original photos you send to me damn clear man....can even see the skin textures of the tangs..which unfortunately will be too big to be posted here... got white spot or not..easily can see hor... heng i think got no significant white spots around ...phew..otherwise spoil the photo shooot today but if your bazooka caused them to stress and show me white spots tomorrow...i roll over your D70 next time i see you with it yeah man...heng my skimmers are up to the task, but i relieved the load of the skimmers by some other decisions to lighten the loading of the tank till my monster comes..hehe yeah...the chevron shot is very good....once in a lifetime kind of expression..i am using it for my signature photo now

weileong, wah liew, after come see my tangs, you decide to force feed your tangs ah i am sure you can do that when you new skimmer is here, when my monster is here, maybe i can bring my reef to another level

here's an interlude, my favourite brain coral

terry: yeap, that will be a great theme tank....maybe can pass the powder blue to someone trying to make a maldives tank..hehe weileong: wah...see the base you also can determine fatness ah.... yeah..sometimes when the tangs swim with their tails facing me, that's when you can see that their body is indeed very thick

terry: black tang, AT and chevron tang.....and with moorish idols... a true hawaiian theme tank...can even scape a volcano in the tank...

terry: that would be an awesome tank too here's a very queer look from the chevron...i can never take such shots of the chevron with my v1....digital SLR really makes a difference

yeah man...must go swimming with your moorishes if got chance to

yeah...actually i bought the desjardini because i saw one in bro seahorse's tank last year when i had the chance to visit his reef.... it has one of the more fanciful body patterns for a tang

thanks jie... with your comments, i understand that i have to look out for nice looking ATs next time for you

the desjardini

can see that weileong loves ATs alot, he took alot of AT shots

yeah, heng u never charge me a fee for each shot.....never mind, i pay you back in kind...give you more tips bui ah...we shall see bwilly's comments when he sees my YT again after a period almost half a year... yeah..i love my 2 skimmers...but too bad when the monster comes around july, they have to go

The yellow tang that bullies fishes but scared of humans cannot blame lah, weileong was pointing a bazooka D70 at the fishes

Had the honour of weileong at my place tonight, using his Nikon D70 to take the fishes of my reef compared to my Sony V1... wow..the D70 is just wow.. pics below are without touch up....just cropping and resizing done... enjoy

cool blueheaven will be anxious to see the completion of your skimmer

yeah lor... deepblue's tangs very good one... u made a right choice to get his... yeah man..just like weileong once said...the poo come out so huge...but then once contact with the stream currents...get disintegrated.... and then the skimmers got to zo gang liao

yeah..... i know that time u beo my yellow tang quite long... sat u intending to get one?

good idea...and the flat rock automatically becomes mounting ground for new corals...hmm..can consider ...good idea thanks
