why dun u use ac dc pump....easy and safe and ur fish always in safe mode...

anybody here owns a bowfin (Amia calva) or two? rupa like snakehead.... dorsal fins move like aba aba punya dorsal fins...

My lungfish eating a golden apple snail.

oh my..poor big fella in a such small home..
Dear Mamat_Lisham,
Please give your lungfish a bigger more comfortable home..
You're torturing him/her rite now with that small tank..
i'm trying to be as polite as i can
Thanks

worry not hulahup. The old tank was 1'x1'x4' which is quite big for a 12" lungfish... the partition was there for me to clean around the tank (+ i push the partition to the other end to protect the lungfish from biting at the pump cable). Now it's at 18" and happily living in a standard 4' tank.

I have this! 15" or so in a standard 4' aquarium (for now).



Many, many thanks to brother GG Ming!

Lol! So u finally gt a aba aba from us.

yeh.... didn't sleep all night and just woke up to go to work thanks to the aba2... interesting to watch...

where do u buy huhuhuhu i also want ...and how much

i got from GG Ming... harga lain2 one... not in season.... u try tanya kanda GG Ming tgk... i baca on the net.... buy big. smaller ones x tahan. fragile.

Nice one you got there.
Yeah, the small ones are very fragile. Sensitive to water change. I got a few at 15cm last time, half of them died, the rest managed to survive and grow (really fast). From there, there is no stopping them.

One of my 2 footer jumped out of the tank the other day, about 2 in the morning. It was half dry when I found it but gasping for air. I dumped it back into the tank and went back to sleep. I thought it'd be dead when I'd wake up, but it was alive. Everything is okay now. Damn hardy fish. Need to get a bigger tank. 3ft doesn't seem enough anymore.

thanks! anyway... 1 question. how la u can go back to sleep after finding your 2 footer + putting it back in your aquarium?

Mine is swimming happily and yesterday i had 24 ekor gold fish in its tank and watched it work until in the morning i got 24 gold fish (kepala only) in its tank. When first introduced to the tank it can go easily into the tube... By morning and after 24 gold fish, the tummy a bit sangkut d while entering... told this to GG Ming and he LOLed me.

I'm keeping it in a 4' tank. seems like a waste of space but after moving my 3' gator gar from a 4' tank, I think moving a big fish is no fun and the sedative for the fish smells bad... so no moving until betul2 kena move la...

Any special care that u can share will be very helpful...

Cheers
