Spotted at Irene Aquarium:

Paddlefish, about 15cm+ going for RM 198.

Dragon goby, RM 110. Looks like a deep sea creature.

Sturgeon: RM 45

Tempted to get the paddlefish but its plankton diet is a bit of a put off.

Yeah, it looks really cool. Was tempted to buy on the spot, but I've no empty tanks at the moment.
I read that dragon gobies need cold temperatures and they are near blind. Going to be a hassle feeding.
Still need to think if I wanna get them.
Any paddlefish owners here? How do you house them? (Also, how do you plan to house them once they grow really large?)

  why dont you feed them with daphnia or bbs ....?can they work?

jangan bagi sturgeon makan apa-apa sahaja jenis singking pallet melainkan pallet 'hikari for sturgeon'. walaupun di syorkan oleh lfs tapi percayalah mereka cuma mahu jual 'barang' sahaja bukan kisah pun pasal haiwan kesayangan yang kita bela ni untuk makluman sturgeon sangat sensitif dengan protein tumbuh-tumbuhan termasuk protein soya (yang biasa terdapat dalam pallet). bila sturgeon termakan protein dari tumbuh-tumbuhan serta merta kod merah pada sistem pencernaan sturgeon tersebut kerana terdapat gangguan bakteria. pertama: makanan yang mereka makan akan sukar hadam dan kedua perut makin mengelembung tanda-tanda jangkitan kuman.

paling elok bagi makan frozen blood worm. kalau blood worm yang hidup kena cuci dengan air paip atau kuaratin dulu tapi lecehlah,serius. baik beli fbw. untuk sturgeon saya satu papan tahan untuk 2 hari.

pengalaman bela ada 10ekor, then tinggal empat tapi sekarang dah tinggal tiga ekor sturgeon sihat wal afiat dalam jagaan saya. satu baru mati dua minggu lepas sebab lupa bagi makan (selalu bagi makan 3x sehari tapi sebab sibuk cat rumah telupa bagi makan 3x sehari dah jadi 1x sehari)   

suhu dah jadi no.2 penting sebab suhu normal air dalam akuarium 28-30 darjah selsius, paling penting pam masuk sebanyak mana udara yang boleh. tapi jangan melampau sangat. no.3 pastikan bagi makan selalu, jangan sampai perut nampak leper dan jadi ke cengkung ke dalam, paling kurang pastikan perut sama paras dengan perisai sisi perut sturgeon tersebut. saya ada pengalaman bela sturgeon satu tahun  tapi masih rasa ilmu belum cukup lagi. dan untuk setakat ini, itu sahaja yangboleh saya kongsi. betulkan saya jika ada silap. sekian

yup, +1. got my bichirs from him before cod at wangsa maju. awesome specimens! can get other rare fish oso. or u can try at irene shop. saw arapaima on sale at irene shop last year when i drop by there. still got ah?

i change whole water for my whole 6ft tank,feel like wanna die. i use magnetic sponge to clean up the inner algae.
