Haha, they are my favourite fishes, how about you? I keep 4 archer fishes and 4 ITs, 2 Mono and 1 Pangsius.
I keep sulawesi shrimps, tetras, birds, exotic pets, herptiles and monster fishes.

Too much of a fish SIAO to quit fish keeping/fishing..
not easy to keep such wild caught fishes alive. for one, i used to go malaysia to explore the small rivers and used to bring back small fishes, bettas but they keep on dying. seems quite weak to me but when i use indian almond concentrated solutions they seem to have a better chance of surviving but i wouldn't suggest catching from our natural "ponds" as they already have very little livestock. not to mention the amount of parasites that you could introduce into your tank. crayfish,yabbies especially, they might contain lots of planaria in them(have experienced this and had to re-cycle tank after i atomic bombed it)

Yany, I have a suggestion for your next trip to the park. If you net an animal, put it in the plastic tank and teach your kids how to identify them. Let them attempt to draw the animal or photograph it by themselves with your supervision before releasing. That way, you can still make it both educational and fun.True, true. All livestock returned to their home after convincing kids that, that is the right thing to do
You can also ask them to make notes on the habitat etc, which can be very useful for that Young Scientist badge thing that primary school kids have. I remember it took me awhile to get my Zoologist badge when I was a kid.
Fish.. Simply Irresistable

True, i had a Zoologist Badge too when i was a kid. I loved it. If you want, you can always head to the Singapore Science Center. There is also more other branches of science, not only zoology.

The pond at the Science Center was my favorite spot to learn about aquatic insects and fish when I was in primary school many years ago.

According to the Science Centre site, yes, but I think it's optional from school to school.
