Chingchai,

I have been following this thread forever, but I can't seem to remember if anyone ever asked... What do you do for a living? I don't mean to be intrusive, I'm just curious.:wavehand:

I am fresh fruit importer.

That is good news about your wife.
You guys are always welcome to BKK.
My small Gem Tang is doing fine.
Biltong looks not so good but eating quality is okay. Thanks.

Hi Ching,

I have read you have added a QT system. I was wondering what you were using as a filter? Do you have pics of how it is set up?

Maybe LFS is QT'ing your livestock? Just wwondering becouse I am looking into filtration for a QT set up and was looking to see how you set up yours.

Thanks,

Chad

Bad news on Sunday:
I lost one of my Achilles due to the serious fight with another one.
They kept attacking each other for three days. Can't take any of them out.
Rest in peace.........

 

[shannonpayne86]

Very sorry to hear the news Ching. Must have been horrible to see it and not be able to do anything about it. Keep in mind though, you have taught a lot of people in this hobby the right way to go about things with this extraordinary build of yours and no doubt saved a few fish from reef heaven in doing so. Congratulations on what you have achieved so far and I look forward to seeing the tank grow along with my knowledge.

 

[elijaher]

Sorry about your Achilles they most of the time peaceful.

 

[clownnrnd]

State of the art QT as well :dance:.

What size tank are you using for the QT? Sump looks great and gives me something to strive for :lol2:
