    went down to Pet Mart just now..
    confronted them about the wrong name stated for the fish..
    guess what?
    they told me it's the agent who gave them the name of the fishes..

    wonder if Pet Mart staffs really know anything bout these fishes...
    wrong names given and caused new birds like me to get mixed up with 2 different rasboras...

    what you expect from LFS staff huh? these workers where got time to go and scrutinise the tiny fish woh? anyway like I said, if they charge you 50¢ for the fish then its OK liao
    why I don't do garden hybrids and aquarium strains: natural species is a history of Nature, while hybrids are just the whims of Man.

    You can't totally blame them. Not everyone is crazy about fishes.

    Hmmm...$0.80 is quite expensive.

    My bros just bought some of them at under $0.50 each at Y618 for his new nano shrimp tank.

    Actually cannot have so high expectation of LFS staff lah . Guess we need to do a little research on our own before taking the staff's word for real. But sorry that u would have to be stuck with the wrong fish FaRnieGuy.

    Choy, wouldn't mind if I am not already keeping boraras brigittae in my 1.5ft moss-shrimp tank. The tank already has 30 brigittae and my moss is occupying 60% of the tamk's volume. So dun think I should overload the tank and I'm sticking strictly to brigittae, so sorry.

    As long as the fish is in good condition, healthy and swimming around, your money is worth even at S$2/pc.

    Buy 10 for $0.50 and end up all die is not worth the money.

    Incidently budak, how would you rate them in terms of fragile-ness?

    I'm gonna place orders for brigittae. Would anyone be interested to get more? If u are, PM me and we'll see how much I can push the price down. Note: min qty at least 50pcs.

    Yes they are fine with clown killies, had both of them in a nano tank once, by the way, this is OT, but do you know where I can get more clown killies, Ah Zhan?
