Hey guys, just wanna know has anyone seen channa sp. fire and ice in KL before?

Pudu has them? Any particular shop? And pricing? Btw, thanks a lot.

Thank you. Will try to go there and hunt then.

Hi, perhaps you could try Rio 32HF. Been reading good things about this brand. Can contact a seller in Lelong, he may not advertise this size, but you can try asking. Apart from that, seen Batu Karang Laut in Subang selling this brand. I inquired for the smaller ones.

Great looking tank. Did you ask what kind of wood they used?

You mentioned the previous owner used it, but for how long has it been dried? And waiting till October, you can call me paranoid, but am worried the silicone may dry up as well.

There are also 2 different types of silicone. But nvm, we can leave that for next time.


I'd try to fill it up as I would for normal fishkeeping. But please remember to throw in some longkang fishes or guppies inside. You won't want to get fined by the authorities if mosquitoes decide to breed there.

Yeobster, I think I've seen your nick in other forums, MYAC? I'm also actually looking to put stand or just bricks to support my incoming FGT. I was advised not to put wood as it'll rot. But metal stands, I also worry about rust.

MYAC... Arowana Club? I could be wrong. Apologies then. Where are you located?

Nice tank, and good looking red you got there.

Kelahs are definitely fun to rare. They swim together, and watching them eat is so much fun. And they eat anything.

Must have? I feel it depends on your preference really. For the characteristics of the different colours are different as well, ie. body shape, head shape. In the market I believe the the kelah merah/ kelah bara has always been sought after. Then there's the blue kelah which Yeobster's mentioned. And also, there's also gold mahseer, which i think are from India.

About care, pretty much like what Yeobster has stated, clear clean water. Watch out for chlorine level and keep the water alkaline.

Added on June 2, 2012, 8:08 pmYeap, kelah = mahseer

Cheapest to most expensive, with 1) being cheapest
1)kelah hijau
2) kelah merah
3) kelah biru
4) kelah bara

1) and 2) are basically the same, red mahseer. differentiation being the river streams they come from. so why the difference in item 1) and 2) pricing. well, i may be wrong, but most lfs won't carry the kelah bara. and the kelah merah u get from lfs, may never be like a kelah bara. again, i could be wrong.

Has anyone been to Bluegrass Aquatics? Feel like dropping by to see some stuff.

Last week i went to AI, for those who are into channa, they got a few species ie. ornatipinis, hardcourtbutleri, sp. Assam (i think). didn't see any bleheri's.

Thanks a lot. Tried calling thhem numerous times but no one picks up the phone.
