wilsontantw Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 XD i think i also know. but ya it was really beautiful! quite suprised its stil there after so long. good buy good buy! i'm really sorry to disappoint you guys man... cyna from kim sotong alright... but it ain't that red piece... price is indigestible... went for another green one instead (price difference is almost 5X!) and i'm trying for another true "sotong" coral... smaller this time, this time round, i'm treating it with lotsa respect! am giving it medium lighting and flow for now... hopefully this one can make it... if this fails... that's it... no more true octo. no pix yet... coz the one i took last night was blurry... and tonight going for my another hobby.

SRC Member albinosage Posted April 20, 2009 SRC Member Share Posted April 20, 2009 Wah RC also got night racing? The cars would look cool with led tail lights Quote My 1.5ft nano cube My 24G nano tank (Decommed) I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate.
