my friend bought a piece at Y618. the clay(brown) type

meanwhile i'm trying out the type i bought from ikea long ago.

I saw the shop at Yishun have it. I can't remember the name but not Y618, it is the size of 2 shop, 1 selling only equipment the other site selling fish and plant. It's the clay ball with 2 round hole at the frond and back. You are staying at Yishu so you should know which shop I'm talking about.

Oh i already have the clay ball type. Its Aquastar Y934.
Are there other types of clay or ceramic caves. Also wondering where to get those small sized pots. Haven't seen them at those flower shops.

flower shop is selling plastic not clay, Ikea do sell small pots occasionally. I bough mine from Daiso, was desperate at that time . So I bough those small pot with plastic flower and throw the flower

By the way I saw the cave which lookllike Igloo at pasir ris, once again I can't remember the name.

Yup could only find plastic ones.
I was thinking of buying those with flowers and throwing the flowers away too! Just not that desperate YET.
I think i saw the igloo one somewhere before too. Just can't remember.

small clay pots can be bought really cheaply from Teo's farm. those are the best looking pots imo. alternatively, i have found that using wavy shaped pieces of driftwood with naturally formed caves works very well for breeding spots. somehow the apistos prefer it to my pots

Just when fish shopping in Lim Chu Kang Area today... I know Qian Hu got quite a few selection. Horseman at Neo Tiew Cres also got quite few selection.
I suggest if you are free drive around Lim Chu Kang Lane 9A, Neo Tiew Cres and Jln Lekar.... at take a look

I would agree that Daiso has a good selection of ceramic 'caves'. Try looking for sauce or toothpick dispensers in the household section. I got 2 bamboo ones from there too. I'll see if I can get a picture later on when I have the time.

Cheap and good.

Cheers,
