My apologies for the lack of updates as I was away for two weeks ICT. Although it's stay out all the way, I would flop into bed the moment I reached home every night because no one can shag me out like SAF can.

After ICT ended, the first thing I did was to visit Qianhu Fish Farm. Actually, I was there to get  a overhead filter as the current internal filter is not efficient for the bioload

I'm keeping Lionhead Goldfish at the moment and you know how messy goldfishes are. I had to get my hands wet every few days to strip down the filter and to wash out the gunk so I figure a overhead filter is much easier for maintenance.

Anyway, another reason I was there is to take a look at the Ranchus as I am smitten with them lately.

But don't mind, we take a look at the Flowerhorns (aka Luohan) first? I love Flowerhorns too.

Remember the rage years back when aquarium shops specializing in such fish sprouted like mushrooms after the rain? But after the rage died, so did the shops and the fish had to suffer the most as they got dumped into ponds and reservoirs.

Poor things...

And now we have the Ranchus! 

I love their chubby faces and clumsy antics. Perhaps it's due to their shorter caudal fins and lack of a dorsal fin? I was tempted to get a couple but the ones I like costs SGD88 - SGD200!

I think I got the same shocked expression as the orange one above.
