12ft was thinking for company foyer more or less....seriously i dun think you can find any wall length along HDB unit that can stretch 12ft length easily...besides....imagine the weight unless i stay at those ground floor units....then 10ft can also be possible... but if wanna stay HDB upper floors...i think 8ft considered very big and *dangerous* already wa liew weileong, who ever mention want to build 20ft tank? like that go buy over underwater world is an easier option lah

jd: guys always have a thing or two for curves hit champagne bottle over it? like christening a ship ah... i scared the skimmer acrylic break ah.... anyway, seriously there are still stuff to complete and ends to tie up...so tentatively i also dunno when i can use it and then i can start to sell my aquaC and H&S duo-combi -------------------------------------------------------------- alfa: this is the last skimmer i will ever get. Period. hehehe so next time change to 8ft tank....i no need change skimmer no lah..this is a VERY humble skimmer compared to the ones in CF

i simply love the curvy neck.... cannot stop touching the contours...really...shiok

hehehe..... now priority is to look for a new place to get married.... and house a 8ft tank kidding.....she will kill me..... maybe really need to sell tank, sell car to get married anyway....congrats for your newjoy..... maybe next time all our children can chiong lfs together while we sit around in retirement

joining you soon bro... taking a break from the scene soon

precisely, that was the first thing i said when i was hugging it acrylic from germany

then it would seem strange but true to say that.. i really need to feed alot and stock alot to...... keep my nitrates up

hehe..dun worry lah...there are a few ways to prevent overskimming..once it is up..i will increase the skimming potential of it gradually till optimum level and not increase further even though it probably hasn't stretched its limbs yet.... i will just chart the nitrate levels and once it nears 0....i will know that i have reached optimum skimming and will not go further

no lah..no space to put sps also lah..and dun want to spend more money and time into the hobby liao..time to retire and admire what i have so far..... 4 beckett injectors....quad-beckett at least this skimmer will definitely be up to it should i change to a bigger tank next time....the skimmer to end all my previous skimmers... I call it tentatively as the Cyclone Quattro

precision ball valves for precise air control that's all for the update

very smooth rounded edges.....will look nicer after polishing deepblue: not up yet mah... even if up liao...dun think we can squeeze into it for bath...but i already target one small cousin to squeeze inside the skimmer for a photoshoot once it is really ready.... never hit the ceiling lah...but well over 2m tall....

about to hit the beam...lol even my mx100 dwarfs in comparison

comparison with a coke can

inner neck of the collection cup not done yet..but just stack wat's available together to get a feel first

a very curvy neck

thanks all for the concern... this morning woke up all the little stuff gone liao....gone for good or not..i dunno.... well.....there are more important things coming up for my reef... here.....a brief preview

kschew: about the same lah..i think u did see my royal gramma when u were here...but maybe u can't remember liao..hehe here's a pic...same as your brazilian except for a black slit across the eye

the best part are the bartletts hor...dunno issit they hear the food hitting the water surface then all chiong out.....take a few bites only....then genna chased back by the fiercer ones again.... not sure if petmart has all the pellets mentioned but that area got many shops..should be able to find what you want

Ocean Nutrition Formula1 or 2 also can... the New Life spectrum pellets also can... as long they recongnise its food..u throw anything they also will eat y leh chew? see my tangs buay tahan ah? hehehe

hehe..too much trouble liao lah...somemore even if i can save the fries....difficult to rear them also....dun have dedicated fry facilities....leave them to fate lor.... the food chain...cruel....but fact of life

no need update much lah.... just called up a friend...he said will end up as fish food... too bad our tanks ain't the ocean....

actually the place is the rightmost part of the tank..no other fish get access to it except the clowns....somemore it's partially hidden by the anemone that's why even me myself din notice it......i think there are little eyes in there...means larvae stage already..otherwise during egg stage already genna eaten up by other fish..... got the protection of the anemone.... yeah...the male always hang around there....whereas the female pay occasional visits only....i dunno if i am imagining..but i see the male seems like preventing the tentacles of the anemone from hitting directly on these stuff..he tries to deflect the tentacles with his own body instead of letting them hit directly on these little things... anyway...even when they become free swimming...they wun survive the reef ahead of them....unless they really stick around the anemone..then probably be safe...but i doubt so.... anyway, interesting thing to happen when i least expect it..hehe

no lah..u can see names ...maybe some here can see numbers lor...lol... actually when some of the tangs grow big...they really look like fat luohans..hehe i saw weileong's blue tang yesterday...really fat ..lol

are these really little nemos?
