[reaper78]

we want to see pic and not discussion abt food

haha bro......food very impt lei...no food = no energy to maintain tank + take pic....

Next week lah....tues the guy coming to do piping and set up some equipment i hope...hehe

[hotsoup]

ok. can reveal who is doing the piping for yr tank?

[Ketchup]

Yap, most of time i lunch/dinner at AV...off topic abit...the horfun & carrot cake is very nice...Horfun $3/- got hum, prawn...sotong......fish.....etc

Fan ah? u using it for the chiller in the cabinet?

keep u in suspense first....will post pics of him and his piping work......

[reaper78]

ya.. but now i try and blow at sump to see if helps.

Oic, i did try that method for my previous tank but the evaporation rate was too rapid.

For my 'new' tank setup, the chiller shall be placed outside of the cabinet. although might be abit hideous, i reckon that less heat is 'trap' within the cabinet.

Ya, i may have to do that as the chiller kicks in too often.. haizz

Aiya... i believe in doing well one time rather than keep upgrading part by part since we are not those good in DIY stuffs.. so no choice lor! LOL

Tank fill with 4 packs of grade 1 and 3 normal sand......

[reaper78]

Using some live sand as well to speed up the 'cycling'.....

[reaper78]

Red sea salt for the cycling stage...will slowly convert to NSW...

[reaper78]

But i see that your mrs share the same passion with u......so at least dont have to be like me...haf to cook up a story or lie that i got it at a very low price...hehe...

[reaper78]

Decided to go tunze this time.........

[Ketchup]

Red sea salt for the cycling stage...will slowly convert to NSW...

Eh, why not use NSW for cycling? faster and more convenient... and quite cheap too if u have big tank.

Hor fun Unit # is 01-64

wah!!! thanks bro... will surely try out this hor fun stall..

i used to work at Thye Hong and frequently go AV for lunch. I like the beef in hotpot... it's facing the 2 tyre shops. Wah... makes me drool thinking of the food there. Maybe we should arrange to do lunch at AV (my treat - i owe you one bro...)

Also, there are some 'kuey' along the same row... also power stuff!

Do you have fixed lunch hours?

Hi Bro!..the bak ku teh beside the beef store also nice!....my lunch hrs ah.....not fixed. Depends if i busy anot..haha...

[MarcoVan]

Wah, u also like me ah..'makansutra' ah..hehe.....hor fun stall used to be at the centre row, near the carrot cake store which i think is quite nice....(the uncle dress in office pants/shirt).....now move to another corner..........i think is call "New Seafood (translate in mandarin).....later in the evening i going there to wack the horfun..not sure open today anot...will check the actual store unit # for u too....The soupy prawn noodle (also at centre row - adj. to the carrot cake shop and next to the 'punggol' satay store) also $3/-. The soup is very nice....in my opinion one of the nicest in sg...worth for a try!

Chicken rice?? are u referring to the corner store - centre row? towards the row of motorbike shop??

hahaha,

no lah, me no makansutra. it's just that i love a good meal after a good day at work. So I do not mind hunting far and wide for good food! haha (:

woah, sia lah, prawn noodle, my favourite sia! hahaha, will try it out someday when i drop by AV. haha (: ehh can call you out for lunch as well eh! hahaha.

Anyway around AV, I think there's this famous handmade soon-kueh/ang ku kueh stall in a coffeeshop which's damn popular. Always go there and see long queues of aunties and uncles outside. Are you ever one of them? haha

And bro, you seriously damn rich sia! All expensive toys!

Happy Reefing,

Marc J.
