got your lineatus liao eh? show show show

posting on behalf of planetg: about 20kg of purple coralline coated liverock for sale at $50... please PM him, he wants to clear asap.

http://www.reefkeeping.com/issues/2002-03/fm/index.htm "A spike- shaped divider evenly restricts the water stream over the ball, and focuses the water under the four air intakes, evenly spaced at ninety degrees apart. Water traveling past the spike and around the ball, results in air being drawn in from the four intakes." in other words, a beckett injector is akin to having 4 single-port venturis

3mm probably here you go.....see if the pics in the link below looks like what u saw http://www.sgreefclub.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=10071

quite true.... if Norwich can beat Man U by 2 goals... I don't see why can't Liverpool beat Chelsea or AC Milan by more than 2 goals also Liverpool to win Champions League @5.8.....liverpool fans should consider

wah liew...sour grapes for wat.... i am an arsenal fan(or more correctly, Anti-ManU fan )...thus neutral to seeing Chelsea or Liverpool play AC Milan/PSV in the final....in fact i am more than happy not seeing Fergie-F-Face in the finals just that the AC Milan vs Chelsea final will be more interesting to watch from a neutralist point of view mah.... The top team of EPL meets the top team of ISA.......what can be more watchable than that? of coz the ball is round and it may be a Liverpool vs PSV final though, with AC Milan and Chelsea playing for 3rd/4th placings

Imagine AC Milan vs Liverpool? PSV vs Chelsea? PSV vs Liverpool? eeeeee... definitely AC Milan vs Chelsea sounds more yummy......

Hope the final will be AC Milan vs Chelsea definitely not Liverpool vs PSV please...this fixture for 3rd/4th placing i can accept sorry liverpool fans....hehe.....nothing against you guys....just want to watch a 'final-quality' final

typrobin is right....you cannot proportionalise the beckett's air or water flow directly off another skimmer like BBK..... for the same beckett injector even, obviously the water or air flow will vary greatly with different pumps used and even if using the same pump, design differences in the skimmer itself will result in different readings as well.... but anyway my quattro running in dual-beckett mode now on an mx100 draws 1800l/hr per injector...meaning i am drawing in 3600l/hr of air into my skimmer body currently... of coz this is only absolute air volume and doesn't equate to bubble fineness which is another category altogether just remember that a beckett has 4 ports to breathe per injector...compared to usual single port venturis ...using a strong pump is the key.....i have seen mx100 on a single beckett injector...all i can say is

haha..anyway, whether it works or not....the company's rationale is explained by their spokeswoman... no need for us to second-guess their rationale or reason behind it anymore in fact if one listens to people like taxi drivers or ahpeks sitting around in kopitiams for eg, one will be able to hear many hilarious versions of the rationale behind this policy or that policy esp govt policies.... anyway, here's another part of the article for the benefit of other motorists as well: Around 41 per cent of the incidents involved the five most commonly flouted safety rules. They are: Leaving the engine on during refuelling. Smoking within the premises of a petrol station. Using handphones on the forecourt of a station. Remaining straddled on the motorbike while refuelling Buying petrol using unapproved containers. Breaking the first two rules listed above are also against the law, said Ms Foo. A person can be prosecuted for smoking or leaving his vehicle engine on at the petrol stations. The penalty is a fine of up to $10,000 or a jail term not exceeding six months or both.

erhem Said Ms Foo Hsu-Yi, manager, Media & Communications Shell Eastern Petroleum: 'Sometimes, motorcyclists do not understand that it's those vital few seconds that would save them when a mishap, like a fire, occurs at the pumps. 'It's possible that a fire could break out when fuel is spilt onto the hot exhaust of a motorcycle. 'If a motorcyclist is sitting on his bike, he may not be able to escape in time as compared to a rider who refuels while standing by the side of his motorcycle.' http://newpaper.asia1.com.sg/printfriendly...9,86415,00.html

i thought the reason is to enable the motorcyclist to make a fast getaway if the pump/bike catches fire?

not again??

just my 2cents... if u really want to be that thorough, you also have to quarantine corals that you buy from lfs, because some non free-swimming stages of ich may be present on them as well.... while there are many methods like hypo, copper.....for fishes....corals on the other hand will not be receptive to such treatment... u may have to set up another tank, put new corals in there with suitable light, another chiller and so on......basically a fishless tank with all these corals for months to ensure totally no ich population in there before u transfer the corals into your main tank....and in the case you want to buy some new corals and put in this tank...no no no...otherwise u are resetting the time again but luckily yours is mainly a FOWLR, so probably such 'new corals' isolation method may not be applicable for you in this outright war against ich

wow... shoelevy's fren "He who shall not be named" voldermort?? borinz prec lee who else? what i am curious about is that, after seeing such small and bleachy rics? why did you guys still proceed with the exchange? "cos he came all the way to do the exchange" "cos aiya...chin chai lah" i really wonder if the goodwill of you guys have been taken advantaged of.

hehe bro... Batman is getting married with his CatWoman A lady who can't wait to get her claws on him Already got robin (DA) around......will have little batgirls and batboys instead..hehe yeah..every system is subject to abuse...now it's a matter of whether will these new policies do more good than harm or simply not worth the effort in implementing and maintaining... ok lah...any more feedback from reefers?

yeap... the emphasis is not to judge or convict anyone.....as i am sure everyone fails expectations at some point in time or another..... the way ahead is to provide a reference system like marinebetta has suggested via *ebay-style* ratings or a sub-forum system as i have earlier mentioned why not both...or more? soon we need more than Justice League...maybe need Prof X and his X-men

personally, i too agree that the reefers here want to be heard, which is why they refuse to solve their disputes via the PM system. What i suggest is a subforum of COMPLAINTS/COMPLIMENTS any reefer who has concluded a sour deal recently can post what are his/her grouses and let the other party have a chance to explain...while the admin and mods in here will not judge or declare who is right or wrong, at least it serves as a reference for others who deal with such mentioned reefers in future.... in short again....caveat emptor...even after reading such a database of opinions because it will soon appear that how come 'this reefer' gets into *misunderstanding/miscommunication* issues with others pretty often..... similarly, a sweet deal can be praised in accordance as well

Batman is always there for the Justice League....putting his detective skills to use while he may shun the public limelight......he will be always there when the Mayor of SRC needs him

seriously boss..... this is a general problem as a population matures and develops.... i reckon the early beginnings of SRC to be like a kampung culture...everyone had open doors and it was a very friendly atmosphere....when a reefer had a new coral or fish...it was akin to a fellow kampung mate having a newborn and the whole kampung celebrates and conveys well wishes and goodwill....even trading and selling was done in good standard and ended in good taste... but as the kampung matures and gains population into a small thriving town, elements like conmen, thiefs and robbers sneaked in together with new immigrants and everyone started becoming wary of each other and closed their doors.....even things like jealousy start to set in to sour the spirit of sharing.....gone are the days when the whole kampung will be happy when someone comes home in a new motobike..... and as the small town matures further into a bustling city....more and more complicated issues set in and more and more complicated characters start to appear...... as such...i dun believe that we should close an eye on the so-called bad transactions in here and allow such ill-intentioned characters from proliferating in here. Just like there is little need for a police force when SRC was a kampung stage.....there is definitely a need for policing now that SRC is hosting a bustling city population.... to ignore and sweep everything underneath just because the forum is about reefing is akin to saying that we should ignore crimes and sweep everything under just because life is about us, our families and our loved ones and we should ignore the baddies and the things they do out there.... while it hasn't become a major phenomenon, i am starting to see bad deals happening and such elements are weaving in and out, in our midst...and it is not suprising that such elements leave a trail of disgruntled reefers who are helpless..... remember the octo case? if everyone had kept mum and endured in silence, i am sure more would have been involved. while many cases are probably misunderstanding and miscommunication, but if there are any cases where there is an intent to take advantage of reefers in here, I would like to see the good majority of reefers in here being protected from such elements.

splitscreen bro... one screen on CH5...the other on SCV...hehe
