    c328 is not. Their neighbour, Polyart is.

    I didn't know Polyart was 24 hours.

    In any case, there's also Se7en Star Aquarium (former Eight Star Aquarium) at Jurong.

    Re: 24hrs LFS?

    There are cases when there is urgent need for a piece of equipment or food etc, and these shops fulfil that role. Just as there are people who go to find food after midnight, there are also people who prefer to visit the LFS at odd hours.

    Seven star Aquarium stocks on equipments, although not as much as C328, furthermore i find thier prices quite unreasonable

    24hr shops have higher operating costs. So they need the margin to cover it.
    They do provide a valuable service. Say your $1000 Aro is gasping for air as your pump has broken down at 1 am. You want to wait till 11am to buy from C328 so you can save $20?
    People working shifts do have problem visiting the LFS during regular hours too.

    They stopped selling for quite a while now. The previous owner whom i know decided to pass his shop to his indian neighbour beside and the dude monopolized the whole place. Should still be able to get some boon but would need to ask them because the new owner of the shop knows almost nothing about fish keeping

    If you are a boon fan, it's good to note down all the shops that sell boons. In this way, if one shop has no stock, you can proceed to others on the list. Understandably, boon colonies are not as reliably stable as tubifex farms for example.

    I know about Hong Yang but Se7en Star is closer to where I live. Looks like I can skip this LFS since the supply of boon at Hong Yang is very constant.

    Where is this ST96?

    The lady boss is the wife of the indian owner. They both ran the aquarium shop and the indian mini mart side by side. They always recommend buying unnecessary stuffs to me.

    I was told by the owner, if need anything they can bring in, just need to tell them

    Re: 24hrs LFS?

    But personally, I would rather travel to PolyArt than 7-star if I want to do some decent shopping. Of course, if C328 opens 24-hr, that will be the best. Anyway I only goto 7-star to get my supply of tubifex worms.
