Visit to Singapore

[crumbletop]

Good evening!

I am coming to Singapore to visit with my parents. I live in Nashville, Tennessee, USA and will be there for about 10 days starting this Wednesday. In Nashville, I am the President of the Middle Tennessee Reef Club (http://www.mtrc.org/) and participate in our club forum on reef central (http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/forumdis...php?forumid=286).

My tank is a 90 gallon, and is mostly SPS. It has been up for about a year and is beginning to fill in nicely. All the SPS started from small frags. Here are some pics from a couple of months ago (not an amazing tank, I know, but it is growing ):

Full Tank:

Left Side #1:

Left Side#2:

Right Side:

I imagine I'll be recovering from jet lag for several days, but I would love to know about some good Reef related stores there, as well as any great reef tank displays I might be able to see. Can anyone give me some pointers on where to go and what to see?

Thanks!

Jack

Thanks to all that have replied or sent me PMs. I'm here in Singapore (Queenstown). You have a very beautiful city. I have been here once before, maybe 15 years ago, but that was only for a day. For those of you who left me your phone # I called (got a full box on one person). I'm trying to set up something with Achilles Tang for next Wednesday. I'd love to see a beautiful tank or two. Something to inspire me

BTW, the equipment I have on my 90 for those who are interested is:
