Nice FTS (or is it FTV? lol)! Didn't know that iPhone videos can be so sharp. I'm using the old 3G, camera is not one of its virtues haha.

I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate.

And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it.

you have a bean bag!? lucky.

my mum thinks it's a waste of space and money.

mehh i beg to differ. i think i'll go buy one tomorrow. :)

Yeah! My late mum thinks so too..... crying.gif

To me, bean bag is a must! thumbsup.gif

But don't buy cloth type, hard to maintain. I bought mine (synthetic leather) from Toa Payoh furniture shop (can't really remember which 1... lol).

Less than 4 blue notes IIRC. Subsequent fillings can be bought from Art Friend at less than 2 red notes.

hmm....

seems like everyone is in the radiant wrasse craze? such a common fish yet so beautiful. this fish used to go unnoticed during africa shipments... now everyone is talking about it.

good publicity for this fish. a true beauty that's so often over looked.

Its just a matter of time..... no one can resist the chosen!

Yeah... I was deciding between between a 6-line and radiant (6-line is so many times cheaper :P). I chose the latter as I can safely add fish in the future..... 6-line, I read, is an anti-newbie.... lol

It takes sometime to really appreciate the beauty. I visited henry 3 times and each time I do not find it nice.... :P

I am glad I grab one as I had really grown to love it, the way it swims, it feeds, it dives into the sand leaving the floating particles.... etc.

a better choice

Rdiant wrasse, halichoeres iridis. the species name comes from the word iris, which is a shade of purple in which the body displays. when grown to a large enough size, their tail will develop a lovely sky blue colouration. unique to only big raidiant wrasses.
