Thanks for the great offer beephoebe!! Maybe you can PM me should you have plans to go down to the farms in Pasir Ris...

As mentioned, fuel prices have skyrocketted like no ones' business lately (all prices had hiked except LABOUR prices aka our SALARY!!!), so maybe I (or whoever decides to car pool in) can give u a token sum for your petrol (or unless you prefer a cup of kopi... lol!!)...

Cheers!!

[beephoebe]

sure sure.. no problem.. i can meet roughly 3 of u at pasir ris mrt then we go from there.. after the sweep, i can drop u all at pasir ris mrt too.. no need token la.. just a small matter.. but weekend better..

[beetlejuice403]

So beephoebe, will be waiting for your 'orders' on when (which weekends) you will be giving the farms in Pasir Ris a visit (then will catch a free ride from you from Pasir Ris MRT)... in advance!!!

Thanks Solo77 for the reply once again... Ha!! Scarly I'll take longer than Sunny03's timing to walk in how? I'm not a young man also nowadays (if Sunny03 had mentioned or described to you... [Last time I'll also play basketball/ volleyball under the scorching hot sun bare-bodied when younger... now, if anyone were to ask me to touch any of these balls at such ridiculous timing, I'll call that person SIAOZ also... LOL!!! ]

[Solo77]

Going tomorrow morning.....me either cycle if no one going or take bus 88. Pm me if want to me...hehehe....tonight might go AM....lol... : )

Hi bro, so how was your trip to the farms on last Sat? Must be very fruitful right? So were you activated on that day, saw the open mob messages...

Btw, can ask all these farms/ shops that sell marine stuffs open til what time everyday? Is it still open in the night time? [if yes, maybe can visit them as weather not so hot...]

Do you mean you also cycle to LCK & CF?!?! WOW!!! Training for the IRONMAN triathlon izit? Cheers!!

[Solo77]

Not new but think either change ownership or change name. From the road leading to farmway 2, instead of turning right towards ah beng shop, turn left. Hope i dont sound confusing to you.

To Bro Beetle, the saturday trip was so-so as the stocks were not what i look for. Anyway, good to visit them also..,..hehehe....

Saturday got silence mob....the open mob for army....for me...i am transferred from amry to scdf for my reservist....don envy...lol....

i did cycle to LCK to visit goat farm but haven cycle to LCK marine shop or coral farm....if i do....also cannot buy thing....lol...transporting from there to sengkang thr cycling...think the LS will be shocked to death.....wahahaha...

how about you....any addition to your tank...u want my velvet damsel? Hoping to gather SK/Punggol reefers together and exchange stuff FOC or consolidate sales.....or importing if possible. Do keep in touch. i have some chaeto, will try to grow them and pass around. I will pass some to sunny03 also incase i failed..lol.... Good Day to you. : )

Where is Swift? New Marine shop?

[beetlejuice403]

Hi bro, so did you go down to the farms this week?

For me, am very tempted to intro livestocks to my tank leh... (Bro Morpheus was giving away a common clown, but he advised me not to as my tank may not be properly cycled yet with just nearly 2 weeks of cycling... Truthfully, when I did a simple 'dip' test using API's All-in-one test strip, noticed that nitrate/nitrite level was quite high... Lucky din get his common clown, if not will cause a live to be lost innocently liaoz... Thanks bro Morpheus!!]

Is Blue Damsel same as your Velvet Damsel? Will be more than glad to get it from you, but dun 1 to cause it to 'up the lorry' due to my uncycled tank leh... possible to get it from you in a few more weeks' time when my tank is more stable? [Maybe you charge me the rental + fish food + utilities fees for housing it lah... ]

So tempted to just get a red starfish to put into my tank to WOW my gal with it... Now, whenever she looks at the marine tank, she goes "Fish where?!?" or "Mei You Yu?!?" aka "No Fish?!?" LOL!!!

Bro, do let me know if you have some spare Chaeto to give away k? Intend to put some into my Hang-on filter to reduce nitrates... (So will doing so speed up the cycling process??? Hee... Hee...)

Thanks & do let me know if you are going down to the farms againz!!! [bro Beephobe... are you going??]

Bro, after seeing your small tank, i recommend you to plan properly what livestock to keep. Blue damsel is a general name, lol, meannig blue in colour. For mine, it is mostly black with metalic blue strip and white bar. Maybe you want to go farm this coming saturday morning. I went last saturday with sunny 03. Just went there to browse around. My main and quarantine tank...flooded....so must becareful in adding stock.

For your tank, the cycling process might take shorter process. As mentioned, i will recommend you to add invert. Maybe one scarlet hermit, small little hermit with red legs. For starfish, you can also add but be warned that certain colour starfish is not reef safe. Think last week iwarna came a few. Seldom see them at pasir ris but coral farm at LCK does have them quite often. Maybe u also add a small cleaner shrimp. For established fish, they can tolerate "poorer" water condition as those newly purchased from shop. For your tank, you can also buy seawater, one pack will do and it will definitely speed up your cycling process.

For the fish, dont worry lar. It is still my fish but just offering you whether you want to adopt it. Maybe you can come take a look and after all the farm visits, then decide. Dont want you to get my fish and then cannot buy other fishes that you like. Hehehe. For the chaeto, should be able to spare you some also. Next week saturday, likely to go also. For your info. Happy reefing. Cheers.

[beetlejuice403]

Thanks bro! Aiyah... never chio me to go the farms last Sat? [LOL!] This coming Sat morning should be fine with me.... Let me know the exact timing/place to meet if you guyz are onz... Paiseh but you mean your main & sump tank literally flooded (as in water flowed out) or packed with livestocks?!? Hope problem is resolved...

Sigh! For my small tank, really a headache in terms of keeping livestocks... Is it possible for my tank to have some corals? [Prefer those soft corals or zoa kind...] If yes, then should I intro livestocks (like scarlett hermit crab/ cleaner shrimp) 1st or the corals 1st? [Ha! Ha! Can't tahan me rite? Haven't learn how to crawl want to learn how to fly already...] Ever thot of buying sea water from farms/ LFSs also, but as I do not have any transport, not worthwhile to take cab as the cost of sea water is relatively low leh...

Thanks so much for the offer on your velvet damsel, maybe will one day drop by your place to look at your marine tank (if you are free & dun mind) - then can let me get 'poisoned' even deeper... LOL! Thanks so much for sharing so much info & knowledge with me... It's you this kinda people that will help to spread the hobby of marine tank-keeping!!!

[Solo77]

Thanks for your concern. My flooded means my tanks got lots of fishes...and i keeping just zoas, mushrooms, rics, suns and LPS.

For your tank, i will suggest to keep mushroom, nice colour and hardy. For Zoas, unless in small frag, if not, yr tank will be full also. Lol. No problem in keeping inverts as they are hardy also. Just need to be more caution in introducing shrimp as they get stress up easily and will die almost immediately .....infront of you....wahahaha...i learned .....bought 2 fire shrimps and both up the lorry....hehehe.

Maybe this saturday, can buy one pack and we take turn to carry out from the farm lor. Hehehe.

No problem lar, just give me a ring. Me just learning and sharing. i also gained from those snr reefers i met, without their experienced and valuable knowledge, i wont be able to provide my "opinion". Please use my suggestion as reference as i might be always right......but it is always good to be corrected by the snr to learn more. Hehehe. For this saturday, if going, will be going ard 7 plus or 8 am. Keep in touch. Cheers.
