    Guys, I stay in Choa Chu Kang, but work in West Coast (Pandan area). So I'm at Hong Leong at least once a week. Sometimes even twice or three times a week, usually during lunch time.Let me know when you guys want to go down. It's easy for me. There's a good nasi padang stall at Hong Leong as well so we can chow down too.

    Some good and sad news.
    Good news is that it seems the ich outbreak on the tank seems over. Didn't see any more white spots appearing. The tang still doesn't take brine or mysis shrimp, but I put in a clump of fern calupera for it and it seems to have helped itself to that (stomach quite rounded).

    Sad news is my lyretail hogfish jumped out of my tank. Didn't see it going around circles per its usual routine this morning and when I still didn't see it in the afternoon, I thought something was amiss. True enough, the bugger's body was all dried up behind the tank

    Kel: my tank's been around for 8 months liao. Started in June last year but nutrients level still seem very high. Maybe my DSB is not working too well (No. 1 sand too coarse?) as I can only see the bubbles from denitration in the gravel on the front side of the tank. The deep part in the back where it goes up to 5 inches deep has no bubbles under it at all.

    Wonderful! Have Hong Leong Kakis liao... =)

    Ermz... darn... I feel so guilty now... I wanted to warn you before hand that Lyretail hogs are Gan Chiong spiders... they swim erratically and usually rather vertically... and are always harrassed cos of their tail...

    Kel> Purple tang ahz... okae lor... I transferred hi to my sump liao =) I'm waiting for the bugger to recover fully, then intro him together with my yellow tang, also in sump but different compartment. From now on, I'll intro all fishies into sump to monitor just like MASTER Spiff...

    Ehz i thought you have purple tang... you want to watch killer movie ah... 2 purple tangs in a tank...

    Cal> When you next going? *beam* Me want fishies!
