    Saw a couple of these at Soon Heng at Bukit Merah.
    Think they are $1.50 each , really cute looking.
    Might interest some of you , esp for putting in planted tank

    Erm dont think its pencil fish leh .. its somewhat like the BB goby , only that its longer , the yellow is more a dull yellow.
    Its labelled rocket fish there.

    I saw some at Rainbow last week. They are about 4-5 cm long,pencil-like body and basically silver in color. They are labelled as Rocket fish there. Not sure if it is the same kind you are talking about?

    These fishes need a pretty large tank as they tend to "zip" around the tank like rockets. They can be pretty impressive in a school. []
