saif post pic of ur tank 8D xD

better arange a time go to ur hse view directly

wow, thats really nice and shiny ^^ i love the gleamy red with a tinge of gold!!
lol your ray is so cute!

hey just wondering rite....if we make the aquarium background like yours blue or black...does it actually affect water temperature?
i mean i've heard rumors that different colors can attract heat and some dont or something like that @.@
btw..how big is your tank?

i just re-measured my tank...its like 4ft in length and 1.5ft in width and 1.6ft in height.....
what concerns me most is the width :S i scared cannot turn well lol....but if i buy an arowana about 5-7inch....it will take about 1 year to reach about 12inch which shud be ok i guess @.@ then the growth slows down....and i will have aproximately another year (2 years in total) to get a 5x2x2 or larger tanik rite?

Wud it really be ok? sorry lol

ok lol that shud give me about 1.3 years time to get money to buy a bigger tank guah lol

but would it be ok to keep a 12 inch aro in my current aquarium?

okies then now i'm just thinking of how i gonna have to arrange the furniture around my room to make things convenient when i change the aquarium >.< hahaha

go for a 6 length x 2.5 width x 2 height ..
lets organize a trip to Bear hse.. who is with me.?

@leong - 5footer with metal stand around 1.2k 6footer much more around 2.5k i inquire b4...

Where is saif house? dunno parents let or not....

thanks again Saif  yeah, i might be the newbie now, later there are gonna be others as well, so might as well ask and try to build up our knowledge ma.....hehe

Its always fun to inspire more ppl to join the same interests and hobbies ^^ the more the merrier maaaaaa

To add to our arowana knowledge base, here as quote from http://www2.wbs.ne.jp/~arowana/efaq.htm
"Q: What is the difference between chili red and blood red?
Q: Are chili red better than blood red?
A: "Chili Red " and "Blood Red " are names for wild arowana. Chili red live in the south area of the Lake Sentarum in Kalimantan. Blood red live in the northern area. A chili red has a "spoon" head, a blood red has a "cannonball" head. A chili red has a diamond shape tail, a blood red has a fan shape tail. A chili red has green skin, a blood red has darker base. Both become red. They are different strains, so it is worth nothing to say which is better.
I should mention again those names are for WILD fish. We can purchase only farmed fish, and they are cross bred ones. It is nonsense to discuss "Is my aro chili or blood?" Only we can purchase are "1st grade red". Of course "Chili red TYPE" or "Blood red TYPE" do exist."
I was just wondering rite...lol...if there was such a possibility....haha...to tatoo the fish LOL....put like Man.U or Ferrari logo hahaha....sorry...stress from work make me love to talk non-sense

Bear - Will you be around this weekend.?

Ok, next saturday will be the day..

For those who wants to tag along, kindly say so in the forum so that our bro Saiful can make the arrangement..

So the only thing left is to decide on the time..

I suggest morning at 10am

welcome aboard, but i dunno how to go wor... anyone know the directions.?

yea, shud be quite easy to find...its that part of klang lama that has a left turn in just before the polis station on the right. Or if u commin in from npe, or gasing raod it shud be the turn right...right after the polis station...then its straight down till we see caltex and wisma mutiara haha

Nah its ok, i still have the brother ornate here with me

i was just reading about nitrosomonas and nitrobacter haha....i always had that curious itchy mind on these bacteria and how they grow etc....very interesting...if only i was rich enuf to afford the equipment casually to observe the developments of the bacteria hahaha. Its realy a small small world!! 

Argh me working hard like hell everyday  ....with my sole motivation on getting larger aquarium and a nice arowana 

I feel i might not have the budget for the 6ft ler...i'd probly stick to 5x2.5
After taking a look at those 6footers i was like...gawd...thats really huge lol my gf say it will be too "kuah-cheong" in my room....
So i gonna get my bigger aq 1st, then my young red aro, and see how things go
From viewing saif's vid on his red, it seemed the aq size is good enuf for me d wan when it gets really big only i will progress from there onwards....hopefully it bring me luck in wealth and career advancement then i can give it better and bigger home too hahahahahaha thats called partnership!!!

bear where ur house....

abang open house party kah kekeke

want to ask a survey question here:

Planning to open a lfs, now searching for location:

Tentatively narrow down to 2 location, one is Kuchai Entrepeuner park opposite Dynasty Condo, the place is new shop lot, look more updated, modern and trendy, the drawback is shop lot is smaller, super jam, need to orbit 10 rounds b4 you can get a parking space and hidden away from main traffic view, so exposure will be very low.

Another location is behind Kuchai Entrepeuner park, Happy Garden, Old shop lot, rental cheaper, shoplot bigger, no problem with parking, main road high exposure, draw back is old uncle type shop, not trendy.

So as a hobbyist, if both place offer the same thing like pellet, SW, feeder fish and so on, will you mind the jam or you will skip the jam and buy from the shop behind?

The reason to the survey is, I need to know the majority of the younger generation mentality, do they mind traffic jam and parking problem to the extend they dun wan to have anything to do with old untrendy uncle shop type offering the same thing?

Or convenient is still an important factor.
