The 'What you fish/fauna/plants did you buy today?' thread

[bryan]

I saw this on another forum, seems like fun and it helps in sharing 'market information' too! Actually its more of a kaypoh(busybody) thread. Doesn't have to be fish related too. I'll start the ball rolling.

On Saturday - 8 Phantom Tetras from clementi for my echi tank. 1 started swimming funky in the bag and did not survive the night. They school among themselves and don't mix with the cardinals.

On Sunday - 5 Dwarf chain loach from Qianhu. A little on the small size but a suprisingly good price. They went into a loach only 5-plan tank. Cute little buggers, they started inspection of the property immediately.

would be nice if you could show us some pictures of your purchase. with your pictures, we could monitor the quality of the 'goods'.

[bryan]

Damn! Sorry man, small fast loaches are too much for my camera.

I bought some air tubes, does that count?

[bryan]

Sure, bloodworm also can.

Hi there,

I also frequent Yun Feng in Tampines, because I worked nearby, unfortunately there isn't much fish shops near where I stay, so no choice.

This afternoon, I bought 2 mid sized angel fishes from Yun Feng.

Bought a rena mini filter, small curvy front glass tank, pots of HC and a pair of rams.

Ecoculture is near your place.
Travel abit north and you reach serangoon/hougang area.
Lots of fish shops there!

Yeah, but none are within walking distance...
I really missed the days when I could take a short walk to Kingfisher LFS and chit chat with the owner Ian.

Send CO2 tank for refill. Been having bad luck with consecutive 2 tanks of CO2. Lost the previous tank due to a sudden leak on the regulator gauge.Lost this current tank due to a clogged ceramic airstone inside the diffuser. The backpressure caused a leak at the bubble counter.

I bought a packet of chicken rice today
