Bro andylee, thanks for dropping by.

I do understand what you meant. But if you compare ours tank and those pro one (whom has more high tech equipment); I think we are still considered with minimal equipment and technology :lol:

Like mine... not even have chiller & CR :yeah:

Haha bro... I'm not gonna defend my position as you have your point of view there... I am communicating with bro Altantis coz I know he spent quite a bit lately... trying to reassure him that all his hard-earned money is well spent :lol: And yes as mentioned, technology includes photography and also a computer with photo editing software :)

I personally think that my set-up should still consider low tech since I now only equiped with the minmium equipment like skimmer, T5 light and fan...

:peace:

Try not to be humble bro... once you added a Tunze wavemaker that costs 4-digit... you are already considered semi-hightech... :lol::lol::lol: And your tank inhibitants are already showing good signs... so be bold enough to claim your status!!! :lol::lol::lol:

      WTS - Resun CL-280 1/10 HP Chiller

      In today's digital age, navigating the online landscape can sometimes feel like trekking through a treacherous wilderness. Recently, I found myself ensnared in a web of deceit spun by skammers, leaving me feeling helpless and devastated. However, amidst the chaos, I stumbled upon a beacon of hope – [COIN RECLAIM SERVICE] a recovery agency that would become my saving grace. From the moment I reached out to them, their team exuded professionalism and empathy. They listened attentively as I recounted my harrowing ordeal, offering reassurance and guidance every step of the way. It took us only 48 hours to recover my entire pension which i initially lost. their impact extended far beyond mere financial restitution. In the midst of despair, they provided a beacon of light, restoring my faith in humanity and reaffirming that goodness still exists in this digital wilderness. Their unwavering dedication to their clients is nothing short of commendable, and I am eternally grateful for their invaluable assistance. Just as i promised, i will always give reviews about them if i see a chance to, just incase theres anyone who is going through such situation like i did, below is there lines of communication.
