Started already lor, added the percs and comet. Just check with my mun who is at home now, cant seem to find the perc's body and re-cfm by her that the comet tummy seems fat.

Whole day sian 1/2, like no mood to work. Think i suffering from some kinda of 'down-depression' syndrome from the demise of the percs' haha....

I think i might have to change my 'wish list' now, have to go for slighty bigger and faster moving fishes..... <_<

were u the one that got the last pcs for the saddleback?? :upsidedown:

Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever.

Was pondering if i should place it in the sump or overflow compartment??

Finally decided on the latter as i think the flow rate be much higher. The 'net' of bio pellet is located at the second compartment....
