Getting Started Junior Member 113 posts Joined: Oct 2004	QUOTE(playerseeker @ Apr 9 2010, 10:52 PM) agree with chuppy.. dun go compare ur gear with each other la....no point... demmit....i nearly suffocate my Ottos to death....this morning saw all of them lying on the floor breathing hard...opened my CO2 too much already...but now they're back to their normal self tho.. 104W + ADA amazonia + CO2 tank can grow HC nicely?? my current temp will be around 26 27? no fert tho... Chuppy, my bad for starting the "ASSUME" case ... After searching internet about plant aquarium and accessory, ADA product definitely the best looking and I'm so into it.... My ouucchh is becos I never expect it would be so expensive... haha I still think straight away go to ADA series would save me lot of time and money... ( Agreed with Chuppy... ) Chuppy from northern region ?

Getting Started Junior Member 113 posts Joined: Oct 2004	QUOTE(chuppy2 @ Apr 11 2010, 11:01 AM) you know what's most tolerable for macro ? 60mm, not so 'cropped' hence less speed needed to get things in focus but cannot reach the details hahaha... Otherwise the sp90 is a good and cheap replacement to the 105mm ( good thing about the 105mm is not the speed... VR!!! ) Enough on cam gear talk 2 type of poison here... 1) Plant Aquarium 2) Camera !!!!!!! loon, u using Nikon or Canon ?

Getting Started Junior Member 113 posts Joined: Oct 2004	QUOTE(freestyler87 @ Apr 19 2010, 08:57 AM) well i agree with you, no matter how they explain after the workshop its no use anymore... simply to say 1st impression to them already like that... one more thing, since is their opening suppose to make a 20% discount sales or 10% at least can make consumer buy their thing... this is the basic marketing strategies they also don't know... FAIL i would say.. i brought RM300 and wanna sapu soil + dw, end up they did not announced any discount or intend to sell their stuff... well i saved then... lolz... i just would comment " Customer always right " no offense this is just my 2 cent... p/s: i still like NA more haha.... QUOTE(michanz @ Apr 19 2010, 09:06 AM) where got such thing supppose to make a 20% discount sales wan lar kenneth! if u actually did purchase some, im definitely sure they would be discounts for u! sure 1! sls is a business! so making business is the main objective! i think theyre doing great business Cheers....... Eventually, I got very good price from SLS... Michanz, yeah ?? Mayb you should ask instead of waiting for announcement.... be proactive maaaahh... I'm joining SLS's marketing department !!!
