There's another shop on the second floor which has some very cool

marine equipments; all the coralife lightings, and GISEMANN lightings also have

but look like showroom, and usually dun open one. Heard that they are the

local agent for GISEMANN lightings.

[anokaina]

Yup you guys are right there is indeed a new marine fish shop (not fresh water convert)

Shop name is JI*eh Marine Aquarium and they are at the first floor. They are facing outside the building.

Spoke to the lady boss there, seems like they really serious about the business, looking at the amount of $ they invested into the tanks, pipes, protein skimmers....etc

Their male boss is a nice guy who said he has been keeping marine fish and diving for 20 years....saw some books on marine fish lying around the cashier. Hmm...seems like he knows his stuff. He also told me that he does custom tank set-ups.

Anyway, those people who are interested can pop by, nice friendly people to talk to : )

[darren]

have they got any livestocks yet? can't seem to find the shop the last time i popped by?

[Nalin]

Well been to that shop its a new setup.

However , 2 to 3 doors away there is another shop

with a solid 4 ft tank !!! its tank setup by Re**** .I bump into it by accident & thought that its a LFS.

After i went in ,to my horror the people in there very Funny one leh..with Tattoos...

also they smoke..and the shop with No signboard one leh...hmm..either Resale Car business or something else ??!!

[ReDDeviLs]

[Clownfish]

[hammer99]

Heyz there. new to this forum. . recently vistied that shop. chao hard to find though. had to call to be able to locate the place. the pple there *good thing* s-l-o-w-l-y directed me to the place. *considering that i'm so bad at directions*

i think it's quite ok though. i talked a little to the owners and i think they're quite friendly.

then the price... i think might be quite ex lar. but hor. the quality's quite good lehz. . and the lady boss there sort of adviced me not to put clown fish into a newly set tank but to put damsel. but i bought both. and the clown died. dumb me huh? just for the fun of it anyway. it's only $3!

so well! nth much to it though. just crapping some stuff here. bb!

[Terryz_]

ermm... killing fish... is not fun...

[DeepBlue]

sigh....only $3......

you've been long in this the hobby? So you bought some clownfish and damsels so you could watch them die? girlfriend , this forum is for hobbyists and marine enthusiasts and not "Darla" from Finding Nemo!

[victorp]

PLS they are only using FL for lighting only..DONNO if its enough to have coral surviving..

If they are meant for sale, FL light is all right to use for view-before-purchase, provided the corals are relatively fast selling. Corals for display tank are of course a different matter. As long as these facts are mentioned to customer when inquired, I see nothing wrong with using FL lights in this situation.

Anyway, they have a Prizm Protein Skimmer out on display working but the flow rate is set too high so much so that salt water is flowing into the collection cup (unless they purposely did it that way). If you want the filter media basket for the Prizm, they have it at SGD16.50.

[jOO]

i haf nothing against this shop altho i must say that the owners/operators do not haf adequate knowledge as far as reefkeeping is concerned.... the only thing they seem clear about is price... my only concern is that they may give newbies in this hobby the wrong info that would lead them the wrong way...

Hi, I believe most of us if not all does not support the idea of using Live stock for cycling. Just LR alone should be able to start the process. Hope you will be more senstive to the life of each fish. We strongly believe in "Responsible Reefing" here in SRC.

Cheers

[darren]

well using "dead fish/animal" to kickstart the cycle will be quicker

[jc85]

well using "dead fish/animal" to kickstart the cycle will be quicker

Not neccessary true. All we need is ammonia from the fish, thus we can easily have ammonia from the die off from LR or even the use of "market prawn".
