    Hi all,
    I'm not sure if this is the correct section to post my question, so please bear with me.


    Are there any recommended shops in the north area that sells feeder (mollies, small frogs) at good prices?

    I have been getting the mollies from a small shop in Marsiling, but they have increased their pricing by quite a bit since.

    Also, where can I find small frogs? I have been looking for them at almost every shop in woodlands and yishun, but most of these only stock medium and large frogs.


    I keep a snakehead, a peacock bass, and a marbled goby.
    So I need a good supply of food to keep them happy


    Thanks!

    You've tried Y618 I guess? I don't know about their prices but I've seen feeder fish in there.

    Yup. Not too cheap for the mollies. They don't have small frogs.

    You went to the LFS at Marsiling? If not mistaken one of the shops named Aquaria Exotica right?

    You can try Aquastar. I see small frogs occasionally , do call up to check before going.

    Hello dhomosapien,

    Understandably, the prices will rise in tandem with everything else from coffee to rice to even aquarium products, in this case feeders.

    If you can find another LFS near your home within walking distance, then it's worth the time to save a few cents or dollars per trip. However, if the LFS is at your doorstep, I think a little price increase is within your means. Travelling to another LFS that is not within walking distance and involves taking public transport may not be so worthwhile, over a 30-50 cent savings.

    Re: Source for feeder fish

    It's been so long since I've been there , but I think it's near Fuchun Community Club at block 304. There's another a few shops beside it at the same block. If this is not the LFS you visit in Marsiling , which one do you go to?

    Re: Source for feeder fish

    Yup, those are the ones. I sometimes go to the other shop on the opposite side of Marsiling, inside the wet market.

    Which one is that? Is that the one at Woodlands checkpoint? Because those two are the only LFS I know of at Marsiling.
