  1. yo bro, issit i old liao or need better specs...hehe no tel number given....so they cannot call u directly, let alone sms you. (rule8) which makes their only way to contact you is via PM, but you not going to entertain those that PM you first. (rule7) so i wonder how are interested buyers going to contact you. only for those who already have your hp number prior to this sales ah oh yah...just saw it....can also leave interest in this thread upz for your sales
  2. ervine: SB800 will solve your flash needs for a long time jc85: now is the best time...DSLRs have never been so affordable D70 kit around 1.6k region...D70 body around 1.2k region.... ....succumb to your desires
  3. it's a good all in one camera but from an ex-user, i realised that i cannot bear to shoot reef at above iso200 on the f828 because noise issues start to set in...very heavy noise....whereas you could probably get away at iso 800 with a D70 with less noise. It's the inherent noise problem of packing too many pixels into a small CCD...whjch is why i went the dslr way. but the f828 has served me well, i am sure it would for you too. Happy shooting your reef
  4. *thumbs up* slowly slowly...after you get deeper into macro shots...u will realise you will fall for the nikkor micros also... it is an evil hobby
  5. yo... u press SET and hold for 10s...then CA will appear and u press -, 2 times, so that it shows -2 reading then leave it....after awhile...when it is supposed to jump back to 29deg....it will correct it to 27deg liao... it is to correct the chiller reading to the actual water temperature
  6. to me, the male dispar just have a reddish cap on the head....but the body to me is still as boring as the usual dispars... whereas bartlett's body u can see a fusion of colours on the whole body...and have those cute little pixel dots on the body.... just like art...some like oil painting, some like water colours...hehe some like B&W photos, some like colour photos...hehe personal taste lah
  7. to you may look the same... but to me, looks hella alot of difference here's a dispar
  8. dun say other anthias...they also squabble amongst themselves. that's why i say got character...unlike the blur blur purple queens/anthias who school like dead fishes...or rather whole day act stone stone just hovering in their groups in the water column....lol sunset also nice lah....best is have sunburst and sunsets......hehe
  9. wah.....lol dun have sengkang/punggol ones ah... i know gouldian may be getting a CL650....if he allows to strip the wire to test then can find out liao....but stripping the wire quite ugly lah....lol (may affect resale value too ) hope lightningstrike from his personal experience with chilling systems or cookiemonster as rep for pacific coo can enlighten us with all these numbers... then we no need perform operation on our chiller wires hehe
  10. did not lor... but if any bros willing to expose their CL650 live/neutral wire out for me...i dun mind measuring for them if i am around their area.
  11. patrick: dump as much as u know that your anthias can finish them in a few minutes... less amount, more often is better than more amount, less often. bartletts have more character and are more fuss-free....i dun even feed cyclopeeze now...just throw in pellets and my bartletts share with my tangs....getting lazier even my sunburst and the lonely purple one are eating pellets... I give them no choice happy with my bartletts and i dun think i want to start back on purples again...one whole body of purple can be quite boring as time passes...at least bartletts are a palette of colours all on one body dispar: no lah..u are still the resident walking marine encyclopedia
  12. yeah lor... take for example... teco 680/tw6 which is rated 1/2 hp...draws 420W artica commercial 1/2 hp ...draws 600+ W maybe can ask lightningstrike or cookiemonster to clarify for us how come all these numbers like dat...hehe
  13. actually there's alot of confusion over chiller ratings....even myself also not too sure... anyway, the best is to test the live/neutral chiller wire with a clampmeter and definitely get the amperage and thus the consumption
  14. as far as i know... the CL650 states 650W here u go...
  15. all along whether tukas or pascalus... those with yellow bands are females....total purple colours are males... just that in a schooling pack when the males are missing, some of the females with yellow bands will lose the bands slowly to evolve to males to assume the place in the hierarchy yeah, those even tiny ones you see in lfs but with yellow bands, they are females....but if u keep them in a school for some time, u will notice some in the school will lose the yellow band to assume male roles in the school
  16. anyway...here is the comparison Purple Queen anthias female (pascalus) http://www.reefimages.com/cgi-reefimages/p...as&slide=18.jpg Purple anthias female (tuka) http://www.reefimages.com/cgi-reefimages/p...as&slide=33.jpg the males are very similar also Purple Queen anthias male (pascalus) http://www.reefimages.com/cgi-reefimages/p...as&slide=19.jpg Purple anthias male (tuka) http://www.reefimages.com/cgi-reefimages/p...as&slide=34.jpg
  17. dispar, u mixed up issit... pascalus is purple queen tuka is purple anthias but yeah...both are quite similar in colour yeah, mine probably are tukas....but maybe got some pascalus mingle inside also
  18. hehehe... some people call me Mr Ang anyway, this group shot was taken about a year ago.... purples queens, yeah..u need alot of them to make themselves feel at home.... my frens asked me how i could make them come out whereas their purple queens keep hiding and are very meek. purple queens motto: unity is strength
  19. seriously i dunno... it's like you introduce a ###### shrimp in a tank and then after a few months it MIA and slowly u also dun bother to look or hunt for it... but never mind lah... as the chinese saying goes.... 不在乎天长地久,只在乎曾经拥有。 and my cousin who always says after the above.... "我拥有过, 你有没有 " anyway, i think a few guys in here also have it....some even bought 2 to try to get them to pair up but they not as trigger happy with their cameras as me to capture their helfrich...hehe
  20. william you are right. in my experience, they thrive on small size food. cyclopeeze was my main food for them, along with a wide range of hikari frozen stuff. heavy feeding is not an option. but a must. before i switched over to bartletts, i netted as many as i could, those that couldn't net out were subject to weeks of low feeding. slowly one by one fell out. but till now, still have one lonely purple sole who survived the me-induced holocaust and mingling with the bartletts
  21. helfrich MIA months back liao...lol... my advice: dun bother if you have a considerable size tank, very hard to spot it...the same money buy a black tang more worth it for nano tanks/species tanks, no harm getting it
  22. no lah...just an average sigma lens being used anyway, this is the road outside the station oh anyway princess, Hard Rock Cafe Tokyo is in UENO station itself, this one i only found out from lightningstrike after i was back heng managed to go Hard Rock Cafe Osaka before tokyo...as for Hard Rock Cafe Osaka, it's beside Universal Studios, Osaka
  23. 190 yen to shinjuku and you can also ride the shinkansen in the station to other parts of japan... well, that's about all i can help....enjoy your trip
  24. To akihabara is only 160 yen Narita Airport terminal 2 to this station is 1450 yen
