serious... i still have no idea whats the difference between LPS and soft corals leh... SPS ok la... easier to tell. :)

Lemon.. with your change means alot of stuffs going for bid soon har :P~

you want some of my LPS? some are abit damaged from my flame angel... so can let them off cheaper haha. :P if not then i'll keep them. planning to let my aussie golden torch and playgyra off.

the remaining LPS i'll keep.

LPS differentiated by softies by the presence of a large skeletal structure. softies have no skeltons, but they do have calcium deposits within their body called sclerites which give them support. LPS have arge calcium carbonate skeletons outside and are visible. like hammer coral, blasto, prata etc.

Can be quite beautiful if you combine with gorgorian and other non-photosynthetic corals....and rics..of course..

don't need rics to make it beautiful. i'm aiming for softies that people don't usually buy and get left over on shipment days only to slowly rot and die. dont wan non-photosynthetic ones too. too much feeding.

will be unique i do hope. will dedicate my tank for softies to show their true potential. poor fellas too underlooked. i usually don't batter an eyelid to them on shipment days but recently with some poisoning from fuel, decided to keep a softy tank haha.

So paiseh bro, about just now! Anyway since there is nowhere else to share, I guess I'll just reply in your thread if you don't mind - cos it's too funny not to tell hahaha:

I went to pick up a coral from Lemon earlier this evening. Exchanged pleasantries and we parted ways. 20 minutes later at 7-Eleven..... HOLY FLYING CUPCAKES!!! I forgot to pay for the coral, and Lemon forgot to collect money!! :paiseh:

Yes what you heard is true. I just robbed a SRC moderator. Please don't call the police :pirate:

bought a little female rhomboid for my existing male one. only bought 1 but kinda regretted. there were plenty of females/juveniles, and i should have gotten at least 2 or 3 :(

was afriad how my old rhomboid will react, but so far so good. he seem's interested :) wow image if i HAD bought 2 or 3 :( the little girl is feeding on pellets and mysis already. but still way way too soon to tell if she's going to make it. feeding is not the acid test for deepwater wrasses.

shall call them rhomrhom and boidboid. fuel named them lol. pardon the messy tank shots behind :) doing major overhaul hehe

my main target at reborn today! saw this little bugger on their stocklist and was quite pleased. went down to take a look and a good friend let me have it. Emblemaria pandionis, the carribean sailfin blenny!

temporarily housing him in a little betta box until i complete some tank stuff. don't want him going MIA while i overhaul.

nothing much to say, except, WATCH THE VIDEO!!
