On Monday, I just pop over my stinko tank and guess what did I see??

Another mantis shrimp!!!!

All the other organisms have died except this him!!!

Luckily it was hiding in a rockwork that is easily accessible.

(the rock on the top). I was rushing for work then.

Quickly I just took it out and left it on the floor.

thankfully, the mantis shrimp abandon the rock and jumped onto the floor.

hopefully, this is the last one i will ever see.

And regarding I-Aquatic skimmmer....... what can i say....... no regrets about it.

Saw the skimmate..... it is BLACK! "kopi O gau gau"

Will post a picture tomorrow. Stay tuned.

RE-do my rockwock today.

most of the rocks do not smell anymore except for just a small minority.

tried to create some caves below so that current flow will not be restricted at the bottom. Also tried to create 3 stageering layers so that it will be easier for me to place the corals infutre and that there will ge a fair share of light and space for the corals. Below is a picture of the new layout. Pretty satisfied with it :D

My thumb and fingers are all sore and had been pricked by numerous "thorns" .

Some are still stucked in my fingers...ouch. :(

Next time will use a rubber glove. :angry:

Bought a tunze 6060 instead of a TS07.

Running into budget issues already.

:(

Nice scaping! Tank's looking good. ;)

Think the thorns you're referring to are the bristles from bristleworms. Kenna a few times already. Take care not to rub it off as it'll irritate the skin further. If you've got problems removing, you might wanna try an old trick we used in the Air Force (same problem when working with fibreglass) - stick masking tape over the area and rip it off. ;)

it was real painful in the beginning and i keep getting the sharp pain when I used my left hand. I think i got pricked just about on every finger..... :(

Then wala! I saw a small pincer.... those with flat edge and not pointed ones.

Just randomly use it over the sore spots.

After doing that for 20 mins while watching the Liverpool game, all the "foreign" spikes have been removed :D

looking great bro.. its always great to see a new tank in progress.. looks like a lot of fun.. :D

fun but back breaking and my neighbours opposite must be wondering what the heck is that guy doing? moving rocks in and out every weekend for 2 - 3 hrs ???

This will be my final rockwork and will be refraining from moving any rocks again unless absolutely neccessary.

I have yet to set up my calcium reactor.

Has anyone set up the I-cal before?

Would like to do it this weekend (most likely sunday) after i come back from Germany. Can anyone help?

When should I start running my cal reactor?

During the cycling period or after that?

Also, what are the test kits that I need to stock up?

Mg?, Cal? Phos?....

Any reccommendation?

DO they sell these in sets?

SO much more work to be done........ and so little time.... :(
