theres one in midvalley?  shocking.gif  shocking.gif  which part of midvalley is this?
very hardy plant. ive bring it back from Sabah, I bought some fish from a LFS a few months back, n he give this plant FOC, didnt use it coz all the fish ive bought are for my pond, not aquarium, so i throw it away. but my mom, such a green finger of her, thought it was nice n put it in a pail filled with water. went back to my hometown last week, suprise suprise...the plant still survive ( grew alot of branches sumore) with just tap water in a pail, n the water ( which my mother claimed never change/top up, only using rain water) did not turn green. so i figure  maybe i can use it as a sucker plant in my aquarium, since it was so hardy, n grew quite fast too. it is an alternative b4 i can find another plant for background plant in my aquarium.

peculiar with this plant is, it bends towards the current of the water. very strange.. hehe... ill post a clearer pict of the plants leaves later tomoro.

edit :- juz bought a leopard cory yesterday. today i regretted it. they really love to kacau my substrate  doh.gif

n abt java moss rite...i know that it is incompatible with seachem excel. but how about API CO2 booster? will it melts the java moss too?

Go to those small kedai ikan lo, sure u can find cheap driftwood. But don't expect real awesome piece of wood. Some might carry really nice ones. Its all about hunting here and there if you want it cheap smile.gif

Hello, anyone knows any lfs that do repairs for faulty light fixtures? Mine is an aquazonic 45cm T5 Super Bright set. One of the white connectors, (the white thing that holds the fluorescent tube) I think has connection issues. Sometimes it lights up, sometimes it doesn't. Needs a bit of twist then the light will come back on, other than this stupid problem the light set is just fine... Got it 2nd hand from a friend.
