The best LFS in the east!

[Fuzzy]

NKS has a good selection of plecos, which I readily admit I can't really appreciate, they look cute and some of them are pretty cool looking, but I won't even consider splashing a couple of hundred dollars for one...but thats just me.

I saw some reasonably priced Pacu there but I don't see a 6ft tank in my future, so I didn't buy any, lol.

But you got to have deep, DEEEEEEP pockets to be shopping for the plecos, there isn't much else to see there.

I thought twice before buying a pleco. Which I didnt. My pacus is really outgrowing my tank.

K&K is damn expensive. I bought my 2026 from there. After a few day, I inquire petmart for the price to compare and they quote me $100 less price from K&K. I should have check the price first.

The short guy from K&K (not sure he's boss or relative of the boss) is very arrogant too. They put the bettas in very small glass bottles. Then he, the same short guy again, change water for those small bottles (without taking out the fish) use scotch brite and wipe inside the bottle without water. The fish is jumping and rolling inside when he's doing that.

Since it's very near to my house, I'd to go there sometime but I really don't enjoy there to go.

I totally agree with you. I visited K&K often when I just started out, eventually realised that I was a 'Mr Robert' all the while..
Their service attitude is bad and not to mention they like to treat everyone as a noob and fluant their 'knowledge' to make you spend more..
I just happen to visit them recently and the short guy insisted that the Ista CO2 reactor (see pic below) is an Internal Reactor... So much for their expertise knowledge..

K&K definitely > 30% more pricely.
For C328, price also went up recently.
Those fishes and shrimps in bags are supplied by QH is quite standard, for emperor blue hook, C328 is selling at 30bucks(slightly bigger than 20cent size), Y618 selling 40bucks(slightly bigger - 50cent size) where as pasir ris farm is selling 20+, normal cory selling 0.30 in Y934 but 0.80 in C328. The small fish shop behind serangoon rainbow selling IT 5"+ for tagged price of $40 but two for 65 comparied to 38++ elsewhere.
For pleco, NKS definitely more variety and cheaper coz they dun get their fishes from QH. East side cheaper will be in pasir ris since i live there... ask me for lobang. I know certain shop or can cycle there to check out the price if you stay too far

Bro, I don't think this forum encourages its members to openly discuss pricing differences between LFSes.

Would you guys be able to recommend a LFS that has a good selection of Co2 products, like Nutrafin Co2 ladder or system?

[gnihc11]

Have to agree that East doesnt have any shop that comes close to C328 in term of pricing or services.

Try Nature Aquarium (NA) Mr Chan carries a lot of CO2 equipment and I've seen Nutrafin stuff on sale there.
I would recommend going the CO2 canister route rather than the yeast route though, you will save on your costs very quickly.

Is there any LFS you guys can recommend that sells Marimo Balls?

[seanskye]

Are you referring to an LFS in Singapore? Your location is in Australia. Anyway you should start a new thread for this but NA Aquarium at Balestier usually has a whole tank of marimo balls if I remember correctly.

[exotic_idiot]

K&k? Sounds very familar.. Is it that bird and fish aquarium one located at Tampines st 21?
Haha I was a carrot head once seems like their name already smells.

Afterall they are just doing business have to make profit if not how can afford rental, guess a shop that size need at least $2-3k a month?

hi, is Yun feng in front of Temasek Polytechnic same as the Yun feng at Pasir Ris farmway there ?

[Gucci]

My vote goes to CRS Haven. It is the nicest setup LFS in Singapore.

I asked the same question once. Apparently, the one at Pasir Ris is the uncle, the one at Tampines is run by the nephew.

Yea, been about 3 times and during those times that i visted the shop i felt that the shop has a quiet nice and smoothing vibe and the set-up is also quite nice

[Gucci]

i agree with you

[bossteck]

Never been to CRS Haven, sounds like high time I pay them a visit.
May I know is it a LFS that mainly focuses on shrimps?

Only shrimps. May have the odd ottos but rest are all shrimps.

[yat6661]

CRS Haven only caters to shrimp lovers. So those who doesnt fancy shrimps would prefer LFS like YunFeng.

[bossteck]

Ah... thanks guys.
