    Hi People,
    Was down at C328 this afternoon, guess what auntie brought in....Baby stone fish!! The cutest thing they are bag individually at the tank where she puts her shrimps and plants, at the back of the shop. About 2cm, now that ain't no 'soon hock' so while it's cute I'll stay away. But if you're game, why not? Have fun....

    PS: don't ask me for photo hor

    Please be careful when handling stone fish, they are venomous.

    Yes JC, at least that's what they call them. It looks almost the same but less grosteque! Prefering to resemble more like our Soon Hock. Let me try to get the scientific name for you guys tonight.

    Yes they are

    they used to have bigger pieces but nowadays all they have are miniscule ones. Amazing fishes they are but not as beautiful as their saltwater cousins colour wise. Use fine sand and you'll see them burrow.
