Do ur Suns open up during peak hours? Mine only open around 1 hour before my bedtime... so not very excited by it. Need target feed some more... have not seen Irwana's tank... hehe will go after work today!!! Let me check how much cash I have in my wallet now

Bro Altantis, you wanna adopt my hermit? It's a very beatiful specimen

My Blue Legged Hermit is not small... inherited from a bro. So you guys reckon I should just offer it out for adoption? They are quite easy to catch, luckily.

Welcome to SRC!!! Nice... how many months? Coz ur LR looks quite matured Mind showing a full shot (entire setup) to let us appreacite your tank more Keep posting

Ooh... a Fan plantation would be very very nice... just feed mine So feeding the entire plantation can be quite fun also, lol. No space? Got space... Perc90 is just a phone call a way... any of ur jewel is worth a trip cross island

Now I can really appreciate ur tank... it's so beautiful at home. Next time when ur tank is done... take more full shots like this. This is the character of your tank

Nice... I have a similar clam

I haven't seen an abalone on sale before... r they rare? Sounds very exp Oh I think I read from somewhere... blue-legged hermit feasting on abalone... I got 1 similar hermit.

True... I expect the bloom to end pretty soon. Phosphates are almost undetectable anyway... empty turbo shells can be quite annoying if littered everywhere.

Must get professional to do or else nightmare later. Leakages can occur over time... unless u r damn good at DIY. Can be quite costly a process though if get well established professionals... so in the end whether it's money well spent. You can also get retrofit overflow outlet. Some acrylic ones are very pretty. Tunze also has one, go check at reefdepot.com.sg. (meaning no drilling, no risk) Sorry I do not have contact for you

Agree with bro Alien 101%. Only wish I listen to him and upgrade slower... coz having a small tank is quite fun too. It's much more focus and more intimate, like a bonsai. Things are so much easier to photograph too

Where u hide all ur worms? I can only see one (the white one)... can do a zoom in and let me drool?!? Ok lah... I will also create a Tube Worm plantation in my tank, lol. Zoos Garden Mushroom Farm Tube Worm Plantation

So bro r u still looking at T5 or happy with ur current lighting? Coz I think u can add reflectors to increase the intensity of the fluorescent tubes. You can also DIY a bit and lower the tubes, currently it is way too high up, IMO. Bro I got one request... see if you can... take a picture of your setup (with doors closed) from afar so that we can have a sense of the room/partition

One thing I find tube worms is they are quite hard to display, especially the Coco worm. Everytime I see the huge tube... it sets me back a little coz dunno how to hide properly... but IMO tube worms always look very stunning in photographs. You gotten those purple and green ones? I think also hv pink ones.

Hehe bro... nah it's an old joke... I know myself, every SRC member knows how impatient I am, hehe. I am just again and again reminding myself not to go LFS and buy some LS... so hard to control actually, even when broke, still think about it day and night. Sorry

A new tank with cabinet for $150? Good deal man!!! Bro we r just trying to help... not forcing u to make a decision or something... but I just feel very sad u told me u might wanna wait coz the NC is too exp. Then got confused by some of our larger tank and then talk about 3ft setup. Then talk about IOS and sump tank... this hobby is all about enjoyment and I always believe in "big got big play, small got small play... they just play differently". So don't just give up coz you were so full of enthusiasm at the beginning Sump? Yes it's a good thing to have... but if you look at a lot of 2ft setup here, most of the doesn't have a sump tank and they still look very stunning... bro Hammy's for example. A good hang-on filter + protein skimmer is a good combo for a start. But don't get a NC, coz you will find it very frustrating you cannot fit in a protein skimmer... which is the most important piece of equipment (besides circulation pump and lighting). Do let us know your decision Extra note: Some bro here know that I always buy from the net. Reason? At least I end up buying what I wanted. 1 danger of walking into a friendly LFS is they will try to sell you things that is of highest profit margin to them. Running business is like that want lah (I will do the same also)... so you may end up buying things that is out of ur original intention. What I usually do is, I will decide what to buy before even visiting the LFS, so if they try to sell me orange, I nod... deep down I always know I want apple, not orange.

Cooled down already... actually not angry lah, but don't really understand what he meant... he confused me I can't outbid myself... so pls... bid guys!!! Am I the only Zoos collector here?

So now you are the official tube worms collector?!?

U mean my impatience?!? lol Probably will introduce a Red Formia first and see how... Anthias bully each other?!? So the best way is to introduce all at once?

Yeah and after the algae bloom, I will transfer all of them to your tank!!! I was kidding... I think it's to introduce 150 cleaning crew into a 3ft tank. Looking at 10 more turbos and 1 hermit... will get em this week.

What r u talking about? Isn't this a bid thread? AND I AM BIDDING FOR THE ZOOS!!!

Lol! You adjusted the contrast of the pix

Common but really nice especially under Actinic

Yeah! Agree... but I'm sure they will soon go away coz I'm gonna buy 100 turbo snails and 50 hermits tomorrow!!!

This Spotted Mandarin has been with me almost 2 months now Eating everything under the sun... err more like under the MH!
