those staff from xlsh told me that bbmg and mg is the same wo....he told me that if u want ur mg to turn to bbmg, change the background to blue and it will turn to bbmg...and white background if u wanted mg...
but i dun really believe la...though the background do play the scales colouring effect..but if ur fish is really the pure breed, i believe it will turn out to be what it should be even u didnt put any background...
if not, why do bukit merah sell their bbmg for 6k-7k for a 4inch baby?
while bbmg in xlsh cost u only like 3k per tail...and it is like around 8inch


haha...nowadays, dun really have anymore chinese wanna work in hospitality industry unless for big restaurant where u need not wet ur hands as a waiter...
so they are all immigrants..dun shout man...later ppl think u all gangster or some jackass.. XD

erm..i can help u ask about it...70% of aquarium in malaysia are made by them...they even do import and export...]
those nice nice stand and cover i think they dont have la..coz they are glass aquarium manufacturer...but they do include the regular metal stand also if u wants it..
i will help ya ask whether they do delivery to there anot...
i believe they do la..but just u need to pay the transportation fees...
the last time i heard was they were delivering to seremban..lol

that one around RM1200...coz the boss said, any tank higher than 2 feet will required 12mm glass..and 12mm glass are expensive


weird...is there a UV filter connected to ur sump tank?


agreed...been carefully examining arowana since i been fraud into buying this.. XD
wanna upgrade to MG or BBMG..hehe...then gonna sell it off to cover my principal budget then only buy another for long timer pet...


wait a...i ask edi i tell u...i remember 5feet one around 500...tank bigger than 4feet will need 10mm..


erm..how to tell a...do u know setapak police station...lets say u are coming from tawakal hospital....go straight...u turn left at the junction before the police station..
then at the 1st traffic light, turn left and then right...u should see a very big tires shop...from the tires shop..go straight...and u shuld see some big truck on ur right..then u see ur right, u shuld be able to see alot of glasses...if u see those glasses, u found the factory...it's in a housing area...

brain full of tank making "formulas" now..tmr gonna assemble them...think will need 4hours to complete...included fish transferring...

tetraarowana of cuz la..that one damn thick the smell..once i open mine, whole room sure full of the smell..rm60?
i got the bottle for 45 or 55 le....at taman tayton...

depends on quality...

aiya...dun buy that one man..how much u brought it?
i brought one external UV filter...RM250...since it's external, it will be much more nice looking for ur tank, with no "obstacle" blocking ur tank view..lol

Added on May 17, 2010, 10:38 pmtoday my 6footer arrived, but damn..they forgotten my water runway hole..gotta wait till tmr they send someone to help me puncture a hole...=.="
sienzzzz

oh yea, those who asked me whether they do send to pahang anot a, yes they do, as long as got address for them...

Added on May 17, 2010, 10:46 pmand one more thing Frenly, do not have a thought that XLSH is the best place to buy things for ur fish, no no..that's so so wrong u know...after i been chit chat with some LFS i frequent, and told them about the mg and bbmg, he said... hah? that is total bullshit...

hahaha...

coz XL is now so so famous, even around the world, that's why people have a thought that XL is safest to buy fish stuff...but after closer examination...i found that many of their things is way more pricey than outside, like the white ring...the lfs that i frequent, i could get RM9/kgs while XL is 10something....and is even the lower quality...

the lfs boss told me, arowana is just like ppl le kid...u know we got black, chinese, whites, malay etc...
then chinese, got leng cai leng lui...fei cai fei lui...some taller, shorter...u know
arowana is the same...
chili red, blood red, banjar, or whatsoever red, is red arowana...
where they just pick the better quality and put names for em...he said, there were never use to be blood red, until about 10years back..lol

then, another sifu told me, a bluebase, will be blue even when it's baby aro...i mean a good quality want...i told him about the changing the tank background for mg could turn it into a bbmg (what XL ppl told me), once he heard it, "hah? haha..bullshit"

lol...so, nowadays dun buy so quickly...remain calm, and aro won't die so easily want. hoho~
if u never do sth abnormal to it..it will survive.....

10 inch edi a? should be able to see the quality if it's good...i saw some good one edi reach level 6 shine even at 8-10inch...some 10 inch even cross their back edi..

i been having my bichir and pleco together..no problem all along...i added in a zebra knifefish the last few days and it's gone...i think my aro ate it.. =.="
even brought at china pleco..and it's cute..and hardworking on getting rid of your algae or any slimy stuff...can get at alive aquarium at jalan pasar for RM5 one..
so far saw ppl mix fish with aro is oscar, paco, bichir, chicilid species(blood parrot, etc), lampan (but lampan will get bite once in awhile), knifefish, ell or any type of slow/less moving carnivorous fish...
oh yea, my tank setup is done..but i forgotten to snap pic.. XD

oscar ok want...get as small as u can lo...small till can't fit ur aro's mouth..but be warn...oscar are damn big eater...and will dirty up ur tank easily...
i still remember having 4 of them..then i brought RM5 feeder fish = 75 tail
the next morning.. left only like 10 plus.. LOL
back then those oscar was just 4 inch...

i dont really recommend gravel for arowana, for certain reasons by sifu
1) if ur gravel consist of some large stone, ur aro could damage it's own scale when swimming around those large stone
2) gravel trap their poo..their poo = poison to fishes...

hence gravel are not really recommended for aro for it's own good...if u really wanted gravel, use big flat stone...i think u guys know what i mean by big flat stone...coz those type of stone trap lesser poo and and flat so ur aro won't hit em...

leong..bala shark better dun..coz their grow really damn damn slow..but the time ur aro reached one years old..ur bala shark should be all gone

kerai is fast grower..i have two in my tank...gonna upload pic~!!!

top tank..comm tank


middle tank..aro tank


below, sump tank


pipe works downwards filter


pipe works from pump to tank

some update on my damage aro...sad case..

a matured 10 years old super red i saw at my fren's house....damn nice






blood parrot as company

6 footer...hehe...the tank is 780 for one
filter stuff sum up to around 1.2k
the stand is 630
the sump tank is a 4footer, 130
so total up is around 3.5k

lol...no need to be jealous...coz mine still small compare to a pond...my dream is a house alongside a pond where u can walk downstairs to see fish from a tempered glass..lol
u come my shop, i explain to u how sump tank works le...hoho...if not u go to any lfs...u see their tank...usually all of their tank connect to one big sump tank...

lol...erm...jalan imbi..., so yea, nearby times square...
