Added on July 2, 2012, 5:34 pmSorry to say that I'm about to open up a can of worms... Please do forgive me if I've said anything wrong...
Although I don't bring fish back as well and am a firm believer in catch and release, I don't really see it's such a big deal for ppl to be taking back 1 PB for consumption or whatever he plans to do it with. If he took any other local species like Toman/Haruan/Sebarau etc by the guni loads I'll be pissed as well
PB's are foreign species that have invaded our waters by the truck loads and eliminating our local species, just like how the snakeheads/asian carps are invading the U.S. I still remember quite a few years back I've seen photos of people (not sure if some organization or personal effort) putting in quite a number of juvenile tomans in subang lake to control the PB infestation, so after so many years I've not really seen anyone pull up any toman also from the subang lake, which means that most likely kena sapu by the PB liao.
Thought I'd shed some light on this matter to help protect our local indigenous species which is getting harder and harder to get (sad to say

) nowadays in the wild. I think in the future our children may not get the chance to feel the wrath of wild tomans/sebaraus and etc.!
Hope I did not offend anyone

when you put tomans and haruans into the pond, they are the first to be tapau'ed back by the anglers. Since they are now gone, PBs are next in the list. A friend of mine did release some tomans/haruans into the holiday villa lake a long time ago as well.. partly so that he can fish them out himself.. hehe..

Same same with betta.. macrostoma also becoming endangered.. so illusive in the wild now.
Dunno how to appreciate em,.. ppl pay 300-500 for a wild caught b.macrostoma last time. Life span 2-3 years ?
Prefer Apistos and african cichlids.
macros are damn nice. but quite difficult to breed in our local weather/temperature.
