  1. went lck201 last fri and yesterday afternoon but they are closed. any reason?
  2. guys, thanks for the info on lck110. still got space for softies so im probably gonna check it out this weekend. are their prices reasonable? i know their ls is on the higher price for those that i asked but for softies, etc ?
  3. juz curious, i am unable to find any teco models starting with TW. is this old or new or is another name for those CA/RA models?
  4. where does lck110 keep their stocks? i only see a display tank in the middle, some small tanks on the right and a big tank on the left where they keep the coco worms. are there more if you walk through the shop to the back? i took a peep outside but saw lots of boxes and stuffs. cannot see tanks leh...
  5. chio bu at shop next to ah beng? or have i missed the best stuff?
  6. go viclite. can get one 250W MH set with casing, ballast, etc and BLV 10K bulb for under $200. complete set.
  7. wow u mean juz came in? i thot next shipment not due so soon? must cheong today liao.
  8. my bi color dont nip corals, juz my anemone and killed all the other fishes, including pbt, bt, flame angel, etc. last nite it went after my newly bought fire gobies so i spend the next hour catching it out of my tank! finally found the culprit. thought it was my water or some other reason for my fishes disappearing.
  9. any email that ask you to forward to everyone that you know is sure to be a chain letter. juz do everyone a favour. delete the darn email.
  10. where??? lck 110? are they at front of shop ie shop area or stash away at the back?
  11. wah piang... 9 minutes after he posted and you already chasing him and PM many times liao ah? we must put more faith in the PM system and on the receiver eyes. one PM is sufficient!
  12. i really think we dont need to spend the amount quoted to have a decent setup. is a matter of knowing where to buy your stuffs and not splurging unnecessarily. can easily knock off 20-30%. if u go to a supplier and ask for marine tank, expect to be quoted a higher price but if you know what you need, juz ask for the tank according to your specs and you will find the pricing will be different. in fact, stuffs for marine is way too high. people are juz capitalizing on this craze so do scout around and ask for cheaper sources. also keep away from branded stuffs and ready made things. darn ex! mh is one good example. simple setup fr industrial supplier will not cost more than $500 but try buying those ready made ones... cheap cheap also almost 1k liao for 3 feet.
  13. i thot the general rule is if mh then need chiller cos fan will not be sufficient unless you use a big big ventilator fan but i think daily water loss >10%
  14. i cant find any website that has the details but from the few users who have been using them, all very happy unlike resun users.
  15. went there yesterday. fishes there seems to be in stable and nice environment. bought a flame angel fr them. was hesistant to buy it from pasir ris cos casualty always quite high, esp for those small fishes that came in the hundreds.
  16. i hope u were not referring to my question "why change?" cos if you do, you miss the meaning by a mile
  17. so what did u buy and how much? why change?
  18. I have been supporting them for the last 20 years but decided to ditch them temporarily until they get things right, beginning with Houllier removal!!!
  19. im using 2x30W fl tubes for my tank of 1.5' depth. the top of my live rocks turned brown after a few days, esp those nearest to the top. what is this and why?
  20. u got the right concern there. i think it will crack??? best to use the box provided. juz do external controller.
  21. aiyah this is digital touch up lah... not make up!
  22. Wondering if any reefers have experience or know the quality of Atman chillers? Quite reasonable in pricing. 0.5HP less than $800.
  23. all my comps diy (except my first 2). almost 10 diy liao. thing to note is not to compromise on brands. get intel cpu get kingston ram (so cheap, dont bother with those china made ones) get asus mb (intel, sis, umc chipset) get seagate or ibm hard disk get creative sound card get creative graphics card (if they have the chipset you want) why? i tried before with those cheap china brands. always give compatibility problems or break down easily. please note that for most parts, shops will tell you the chipset is branded so no worries. ha! the pcb is more sensitive. those china ones will fail you, and worst of all, the fail slowly... giving you intermittant problems that are hard to trouble shoot. my current pc is a diy pentium iii 500 mhz 4 years ago. now still using it as im not heavily into graphics. juz some games and photoshop. still good, no parts replaced except floppy drive. no issues when installing win98, then moved to win2000 and now winxp. go branded on the parts, not the comp! $800 can do but probably a celeron.
  24. make space *hiak* gonna sell off my 4 feet tanks for that hehehe but no money to pay for mh and chiller so put on hold
