Not forgetting the Auto Feeders :lol: 1 for Pellets (3 times daily in medium portions) and 1 for the flakes (2 times daily in larger portions)... try to use the smaller pieces of flakes... avoid those large pieces as they may clog the outlet :huh:

See the air tube running into the Hydor Flakes Feeder? The air pumped into the feeder chamber will help keep the flakes dry... or else they will turn sticky and block the outlet... genius :bow:

Place the Auto Feeders as far as possible away from the overflow box :D

For better health to my fish and corals... my trusted caretaker will help feed the prepacked fish food on a daily basis... will share the preparation method later today as I will only prepare it a day before I leave... to keep the frozen fresher :rolleyes:

Will go back office today and tomorrow to make sure things are properly in place... will share more later tonight :)

Meanwhile... appreciate if reefers can share their Tokyo experience with me... I can't find any LFS info and address on the net  :(  Any noteworthy attractions there (in terms of reefing)  :bow:

I was there earlier this year but before I am getting into Coral reef Tank so I know nuts.

The best in Tokyo is the food, electronics & foods. Lots of nice foods in very nice wrapping. I suggest to go to Hakone by Shinkasen and buy 3 days pass to wander around there and don't forget to eat blacken eggs they claim if you eat 3 it can prolongs your life by 10 years :lol:

Other that that is Disney land & Disney sea. If you want to taste original Japan yakitory, please visit yakitory alley somewhere near shinjuku? (can't remember exactly) mostly small shops jam packed with salaryman after working hours. Don't forget to visit Akihabara, to get accesories for your camera but the lenses are pricier than SG. Enjoy your trip, I was Tokyo only 4 days and I feel it's too short but I completed Osaka, Kyoto, & Hiroshima I still missed tsukiji market since the best time to be there is around 5 am, so need to take the earliest train at 4 am.

Are you on guided tour or on your own? If you are travelling on your own get JR Pass here in Singapore it can't be purchased once you enter Japan.

wo wo wo.... so well prepared..

ever ready.

Well... just some of the things I've learned along the way bro... never take things for granted especially when you are to pass the responsibility to take care of the tank to a non-reefer :erm:

But even then... a full tank of SPS without its owner's attention for 2 weeks can be risky... no matter how well prepared... "things" can still happen :pinch:

Anyway... here's how I prepared my fish food... 1 plastic cup per day... frozen mysis, chopped seaweed and Cyclopeeze... mixed with a bit of DI water (or else they will harden within days) <_<

Washed the skimmer cup thoroughly... tune the skimmer to slightly dry so that the cup doesn't fill up so quickly :erm: Anyway Steve is scheduled to visit my office on day 9 to help check things out... and that includes cleaning the cup (I suppose) :lol:

Here's my last preparation to share...

A large bag of activated carbon :erm:

This is for emergency use... told my caretaker... if can see bodies floating around... or smell coming out of somewhere... dump it into the sump immediately and call for HELP :pinch::pinch::pinch:

Well... that's all for now... btw I'll be visiting Tokyo Motor Show 2007... so you guys can look forward to lots of Angels pix in the coming weeks... not the swimming kind of course :eyebrow:

CYA!!! Good luck my lovely tank :peace:

Jervismun, just some of my thoughts....

1) Since your caretake is feeding a cup of the pre-prepare food u make, auto feeder food 1X per day enough 'cos better to feed a little less and create less pollution to the water.

2) although a little ugly, u may consider to use a bigger pail of water topup that last for 2 weeks for the meanwhile

3) Chk and make sure all water parameters are at higher level.... Eg. give KH about 12 and Ca about 450ppm, etc.

Lastly, enjoy your trip. :D

:) Greeting :)

As expected... a tank full of "kiss marks" :lol: 2 weeks never clean the glass... not within my caretaker's scope of work :D

Majority of the SPS are doing fine... just 2 or 3 pieces showing sign of stress... will nurse them back :erm:
