No gaming-related stuff.
Slim Custom-Fit Match Stripe Polo. Polo Ralph Lauren. $40.
I love Polos. Instead of sticking with a solid or striped one, I got one with a sash. :lol Got a lot of compliments from wearing it too.
Purigen, Chemi-Pure Elite, Marine Snow, Cyclop-Eeze and Formula Two Marine Pellets. $55.
Various fish, coral and invertebrate food/supplements. Also some items to help filtrate the crap in my tank.
Devil's Armor. Zoanthid. 3 Polyps. $5.
Bought from AquaSD. Paid for one polyp and ended up with three. I've been wanting this for a long time so it's nice to finally get some for a steal. These look way better in person.
Super Fire and Ice. Zoanthid. 8 Polyps. $15.
Same with the Devil's Armor, I bought it from AquaSD. Paid for three polyps and got eight.
Super Metallic Green Octospawn. Euphyllia. $99.
I wasn't sure how well this would do in my tank since I don't want it to sting other corals. So I set it to it's own spot and it's doing wonderful so far.
Ultra Yellow Speckled Trachy. Trachyphyllia. $129.
My favorite coral thus far. It just sits there. So awesome.
Metallica Green (lower right-corner). Zoanthid. 25-30 Polyps. $10.
Got this for cheap from a local fish store. I think they're Metallica Green zoas but will have to properly I.D. them later on.
And because someone will ask, here's a full tank shot:
My green hair algae levels aren't as bad as before. I just need to prune the rocks since they're not growing much any more.

Since I have no room in my room, I decided to get a little small shelf to fit inside my closet. It sure was a bitch to build though.
Don't think I'll have anything else to buy for the remaining month and March (hopefully:lol ).

Nice Nano reef !
Gotta lose the glass anemone in the middle though , it's gonna split in lots more little ones and become a pest , killing everything it touches .
Inject that sucker with hot water and lots of salt , that will take care of him .
And keep that Euphillia far away from any algae , it will retract and die if you don't .

Reginleiv is looking beautiful, as is that box. No word on NA release, huh?
This may be the final straw to push me to get a JP Wii.

Finally my japanese copy of Fatal Frame 4 shipped. I thought I really missed the chance when it went out of stock in play-asia and had to have the order on "looking for suppliers" in yesasia.
Will post pics as soon as I receive it. Also, it will be really cool to scare my roomie shitless

Yeah, I used to have an aiptasia problem as well. The only ones I see now is that one right in the middle and a very small one that is closer to the sandbed on the right side. I have some Aiptasia-X that I'll be using on it soon.
It looks like my turbo and astrea snails are bulldozing the algae, so I'm hoping to be rid of the green hair in the upcoming weeks. My octospawn sits on top of a rock where there isn't any green hair algae that it can come into contact with. So it's safe, for now.
By the way, do you have a tank of your own?

Got the Street Fighter comic from a giveaway on Official Playstation Magazine UK's Twitter. Not pictured is the Little Sister figure I got with my Bioshock 2 preorder. My DSi just arrived today, and I also bought Reflect Missile, Art Style Boxlife and PicoPict on DSiWare.
And this was my healthy lunch today:

So you've basically inspired me to pursue purchasing a Salt Water tank.Bii said:
I am curious if you would be comfortable sharing how much it costs you. What is the start up cost and the average maintenance costs?
I love your tank and am extremely jealous, but I worry that it would be quite a money pit. Though it would look extremely classy if done right, which you have clearly done.

Two things the last few pages of this thread has taught me:
Liquidus is rapidly approaching the fistfullofmetal level of obssessive creepiness.
Bii has a pretty awesome aquarium.

So the box is assembled with random things or you can do a pick and choose deal.Mafro said:

I looked at that graze.com thing. Sounds awesome, but I guess it's UK only.

Now I only keep Tropical fish but ill tell you right now that salt water is insanely expensive. I would strongly suggest Tropical first as its alto cheaper by comparison and you really need to learn ALOT of info. This is all assuming you dont already keep tropical s mind you
Id post a pic of my tank but I cant find them on my pc :/

It depends on the SW tank size you choose, how many fish and coral you plan on having. Basically the bigger the tank, the more fish you have, the more it'll cost for proper maintenance. Certain corals need brighter lights which are very expensive and require precise water parameters. With an average beginner 10G set, expect to invest anywhere up to $200-500. It's really hard to pinpoint an average cost as it varies on what you want. My advice is do A LOT of research as it is a time consuming hobby and you'll encounter many humps along the way through trial and error. I only grazed the tip of the iceberg. However in the end, it pays off.
Nice nano btw bii.
Some music. After watching the first season of Twin Peaks last month, I had to get hold of the soundtrack. The Julee Cruise tracks, especially, are awesome.
A bunch of (mostly) bargain bin DVDs. I can only barely remember Game On at this stage, but they were only 2.80 each and any show with an episode called "Bruce Willis and Robert De Niro Holding a Fish" can't be all bad. :lol
Some box sets. I got Lost S2 for 15.60, Aeon Flux for 3.50 (on eBay) and Deadwood S1 for 10. It's the Australian version, but for some reason it also supports Region 2.
A little reading material and some games:

Thanks for sharing. Those are some pretty awesome songs.
I might could get into these chicks. As an Ani D. fan I always have had a passion for really good voices.

It finally showed up!
I'm really impressed with the quality of this Collector's Edition. The box and Art Book are really nice.

I would recommend Mario vs. Donkey Kong March of the Minis (essentially a full blown puzzle game for 8 bucks) and Mighty Flip Champs, another puzzle game (that becomes devilishly tough later on) by the makers of Shantae.

I usually don't like different stylus for the DS but damn that slime one is fucking awesome.

The greatest purchase I will make this year.
All of Calvin and Hobbes in 3 massive volumes. I'm pretty sure you could kill someone with this by dropping the full box on their head.
