[ranmasatome]

Don't worry. We have some pictures in the archives. Will show you when I have the chance to dig it up.

It's just a small, quaint shop in a really out of whack location. Friendly uncle and no nonsense policy.

Cheers,

haha I'm coming I'm coming. just have to clear my tanks and also clear my visitors this week.

Wah... nothing left ah... Even the mags are all taken... But managed to get quite a lot of other stuff too...

Ok, Benny et. al., guess how many supposed Ember Tetras there are in the 'scoop'?...

Nope, but I did take the last hatchetfish in there, along with an assortment of smaller fishes that included both tetras and rasboras. The other guys who were there took the other critters in the tank.

Wanted the last lipstick barb but someone reserved it so I had to give it to him. Took home the last two Bandula Barbs instead.

those not bandula barb but Punitus narayani.

[stormhawk]

Thanks Choy, for the correction. I only remembered the named bandula something. They're a good size. I think I have a pair.

Anyway here's a rough shot of the larger one, female I think, with a rhombo barb close by. Pardon the dirty glass..

Too much for too little! What a bargain. I would have taken the whole lot if you didn't. Pretty, aren't they?

Their fins are beginning to colour up... Looks promising... Hope tomorrow they will look their best. They are in hiding now as my black skirts were chasing them. 52 of them! Was thinking ~20 of them would force them school better.

[ranmasatome]

Those ember tetras will look simply stunning.. i was considering them.. but no tank space liao.. cos reserved for other fish..

Too late, Mission Impossible to catch them now.

You'd better enjoy your 'school' of Flags...

It seems like everyone who went there early "benefited" from the owner.

[ranmasatome]

Actually not really "benefited" la.. more than half the stuff i bought i dont need.. was really trying to help uncle out since i treasure the shop so much. Actually think i over bought..haha.. if you want i can let some of the things go at the same price i bought them..

me too.. i want some of the thing u buy

[ranmasatome]

On ah.. i start thread later..

[celticfish]

nice to meet you all again. albeit under less than happy circumstances. i must say uncle is very steady. i didn't ask for any prices. just selected what i wanted and gave them to him to tally. and he was very generous with his pricing.

benny,
what was the name of the two puffers i got? thanks!

hope to see some of you again this saturday for the "window" shopping.

[Justikanz]

Just an update on the fish from CS... The Embers caused me to be more late (than usual) for work today... I spent almost half an hr in my 'morning rush hour' looking at them! They are stunning schoolers, though their colours not really out yet... I would have taken half day just to see them swim away from the SAE and the black skirts that tried to see if they fit their mouths... Thank you Mr Chua (and Benny too)...

Yes, Mr Chua is indeed very generous. Will try to help him clear his PL lights too later once I confirmed the make...
