Haha... new OPC la.. we didnt really want to buy initially but since the new scheme is pretty good and we only use the car on weekends and weeknights after 7pm anyway so it makes sense... as for LFS, well all the LFS are so BLardy far from us... i think nearest is RD but still quite inconvenient if not driving, so i guess it a push factor :)

We were saying that go LFS also no need to pay parking somemore... except for AM and RD i think.. LOL

Ketchup, good for you to get an OPC car!

OPC car is great if you are only using on weekends or sometimes at night :eyebrow:

Hahaha, I always cheong LFS on weekends .... as mine is OPC :rolleyes:

Yes, most LFS no need to pay for parking.

(-_-) Happy will do ... (o_o)

bro. Are you expecting visitors to your place during cny? If yes, my recommendation is not to cycle it. Quite unbearable stench. Besides, seeing a half rotten prawn during cny, not very auspicious wor.

ehh, true... when we cycle, we threw in 5 prawns, quite big somemore... and yet hardly smell anything... I don't know does the active live sand with bacteria and NSW help or not... maybe people cycle without using NSW and live sand/live rock so will take longer and stink up the place...

I think it took us only abt 5 days to complete the cycle and we waited until abt 1 full week then we slowly add in livestocks/corals.

I think probably due to ur total water volume, the 'foul' smell not that bad....but adding in 4-5 prawns.....that is alot ...ha :mellow: ha
