More toys coming in
I am just waiting for that phone call to inform me when my wave maker (for my marine tank) has reached Singapore. It will be non-stop action from then on. Fishes and corals will start to be introduced into my tank gradually. It has been a while since I have a beautiful tank, and with all the equipments all up and running, that bluish crystal clear marine tank will not be too far a dream from now.

My Hobbies
Well, for people who knows me would know that I have a few hobbies.
It goes someway back if I were to list them down. Briefly, it used to consist of Freshwater fish keeping and Astronomy. But now, the ones I am really into are Drumming, Marine fish keeping (reefing is a preferred term), Tennis and more recently guitar. the problem is I have limited time on hand and to spend time on every hobbies seems impossible.
Just this week, I spent 2 weekdays evening playing tennis. This is really something I like. But there comes the frustration of not getting my strokes right when I played. Still, I am loving Tennis as of now and there's a thought of going for private coaching to get my strokes right so I can enjoy the tennis games even more.
Then there's reefing. Something which I love as well. The thought of a fully stocked marine tank intrigues me and inspires me to improve my own tank. Just lately I have invested heavily in a few new equipments, building the infrastructure for the live stocks that are to come. The momentum is up, just waiting for more equipments to arrive then I can go full throttle to stock it up.
Drumming for church service is something that has been on my lips. Finally some action going on, as I will be auditioning for my church Creative Arts Ministry (CAM) sometime soon. Not necessary to say I will be in the team anytime soon, but it will be a step in the direction I always wanted since I picked up drumming. Now I am also picking up guitar, but at a slower pace. Hoping to bring our cell worship to a higher level than it is now. Music is certainly something I have always enjoyed and it's good to pick up these 2 instruments for now.

Marine Tank Cleaning
Finally I had some time to spare this afternoon. And I managed to do the 1 thing which I have been procrastinating for the longest time and that's to spruce up my Marine Tank.
After 4 hours of maintenance, I must say the tank is looking much much better than before. It's just the beginning. More plans are in the pipeline, including adding more fishes and eventually corals as well as upgrading the lightings.
This hobby is certainly getting more expensive as compared to just 3-4 years back. 1 piece of coral that used to cost $40-$50 can now costs a hundred dollar and beyond. But having made such an investment in the aquarium set-up, I will be going forward with it, making the most out of it.
