    "Yes sir, all seiryu rocks are on that shelf. Here's an aquarium for you to see how they'll look. All rocks sold cannot be return sir. The price of rocks have gone up sir. We are facing major shortage of rocks. Hence the price now is $10/kg"

    Cause those who say that don't know it is illegal haha. Unless it is a dumping zone like ponggol construction that time had alot

    So far she's not complaining. Never tell her price. Just that she knows not cheap.

    OT:-Better don't tell too much about pricing, later they complain we spend more on tank rather than on them

    maybe should go to Malaysia with shadow...hehehe, maybe we can organise a trip and share the traveling cost?

    Link to my Blog

    Re: Rocks for Iwagumi

    Hi guys,

    So today, gf and I went to Mainland. Spend 6 bucks to let her feed those kois!

    Anyway, I went around to see the rocks they have. Here are the pictures. I didn't get any as I was going out. Not driving hence no transport to at least put them in the boot. So I guess, it still comes down to next week.

    Here goes.

    IMG_0871.jpgIMG_0869.jpg
    The kois my gf was feeding...kois were pretty excited and so was my gf.
    (Gf picture feeding kois have but cannot post. After married then can. LOL)

    IMG_0865.jpgIMG_0876.jpgIMG_0877.jpg
    The rocks in styrofoam boxes are what I will say small to medium sizes? Both rocks and driftwood displayed in front of the shop.

    2nd picture are rocks at the back.

    3rd pictures are also from the back. On the left when you walk out of the door. I will say there were XS, S, M and L size rocks. Almost want to stay there and do some setup but it was already 6 plus so it's gotta be done next week instead. Haiz.

    PS: can i understand more about attachments? since i am a newbie, I am limited to 1mb. So if I want to post more pictures, i have to delete the old ones? But that means the old ones will become invalid in the old posts right?

    Re: Rocks for Iwagumi

    Why do I get this feeling that next week when I go Mainland, those rocks at the back or rather the good ones are going to be gone. LOL.

    Happy hunting folks!

    Thanks Shadow.

    So guys, any ideas what those rocks are? The one I took at the back on the left side?

    There some pretty looking rocks. Looks the same. Normal rocks from Bukit Timah or Ubin?
