    Usually, you will need a very good chinese teacher to have that answer.
    Alternatively, you can try google translate.

    PRL stands for Pure Red Line(crystal red shrimp that are not interbreed with other color shrimp.)

    He mean the fee for teaching you the chinese word, is a 1 grade A PRL with solid red and white. He was just joking bro. Read carefully. LOL

    I think your student, GrandJump, didn't pay attention during your class, Mr hyun007.

    My students usually run laps or footwork routine if they don't pay attention.
    It is a joy to punish for me to watch.

    Sorry, I do not live in Singapore.

    Just find a similiar picture of it on the internet, download it onto your phone, go to C328, show the uncle the picture and ask him to order the number you want.

    Re: Water beetle....

    English common name is water boatman, I believe.
    Vincent - AQ is for everyone, but not for 'u' and 'mi'.
    Why use punctuation? See what a difference it makes:
    A woman, without her man, is nothing.
    A woman: without her, man is nothing.

    Honestly, you do not want any type of water beetles in any of your tank.
    They are predators.
