Im at the moment sitting in my bed in HongKong / Kowloon after being out for a whole day since my arrival this morning.

This is the only fish related picture i have this far, it is a koi fish in the Kowloon park, but i got some information on the flight here that there should be a whole road with aquarium related stuff, I will have to wait and see.

Nice registry tweak

Someone else but me who is annoyed of the balloons from the notification area, like you are now connected to your wireless network or the balloon about not having a cable in the LAN connector and more.

There is a solution, i recently found this:
“Start the registry editor, go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced add a DWORD “EnableBalloonTips”. set it to 0 and restart the computer.”

Fluorescent LED

 

I recently found this post on APC , it’s about LED lamps which are compatible with normal fluorescent fixtures.

I guess they are not made for aquarium use but it would be nice to hear some comments about it.

The lamps can be found here:
