    What are the fishes that are interesting to get back? Other than bettas.
    Are the fishes cheaper there?

    Hoping to get red whiptail catfish, furcatas family there. Very excited about my pending fish hunting

    I have not manage to find any shrimps. I read online from others that the shrimps there are cheap. For fishes, u can find at JJ market, personally i did not find it to be spectacular. I did not see any beautiful bettas that cannot be found in singapore. But the marine fish there are really beautiful.

    Not really,vivarium /paludarium / riparium materials also found in Chatchuchak , too. Even there are plenty of exotic animals for viva/palu, too! I nearly attempted to buy landed property nearby Chatchuchak last year ...just to enjoy my hobby but find too pricey to enjoy.
    cheers

    Re: Fishes at weekend market in Bangkok.

    Hi
    Benny,
    After the packing by seller, do we hand-carry or check in the fishes? because I m worry that if you place it in your big luggage, it might burst!
    But there is a liquid restriction if we are to handcarry?

    Hi jayhou,

    No liquids in hand-carry for aircraft at all. Except the duty free liquor that you buy during departure at the airport. The only option would be to check in, i suppose a hard case luggage and a 'fragile' label from the airport might do the trick.

    Re: Fishes at weekend market in Bangkok.

    Hi Jayhou,

    Pretty tough to say on this, I personally won't want to have the shrimps packed in the bags for anything more than 2 days. If you are looking at the more exotic (usually even more fragile) ones, the risks are even higher.
