The idiot's post: Aquafair 2010 - Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre

Monday, November 29, 2010. Aquafair 2010 - Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre. This year's Aquafair 2010 was a bit disappointing. There wasn't much to see as other big players like Xien Leng, AI and others weren't present. Here are a few photos I've taken on that day :). Some pictures below of the usual suspects. Discus and ever present arrowanas. I missed the last Aquafair's 2008's arro-planted tank setup which had a beautiful dragon swimming in a aquatic garden. Here's a picture of MAC's booth!

Thursday, April 22, 2010. Zoo Negara Malaysia, 2009. My family made a trip to check out our local Zoo Negara. It was quite a fun time, seeing lions, monkeys and lots n lots of birds. Took the opportunity to click a few photos of invertebrates and of course, fishes :) Here's a picture of a softshell tortoise. He's big, as in nearly a foot and a half length! Have you ever seen so much blackbeard algae! A tankful of lampans. Notice how scratched up the glasses were? Alas, thanks to my tank being cracked up,...

Thursday, December 11, 2008. Kepong Wet Market Panmee. So along we went to the wet market in Kepong last week for by far the best spicy soup pan mee i've ever tried! It's just one of those place u'd stumble into, on a cold morning marketday as u run your errands and end up being dead-hungry! The usual fair would be a hot spicy bowl of panmee with pieces of fish paste, pork-slices, fu-chuok (fried bean-curd) and the most important condiment, lots of celery/parsley leaves! It hits the spot! Also, because i...

Sunday, June 14, 2009. Fish Paradise Centrepoint BU. This in my humble opinion really is one of the better/nicer, comfortable LFS specializing in aquatic plants. Being smack right in Centrepoint. BU, one could do lunch and then go fish-a-shopping afterwards, that's what you call convenience! Did i mention, right beside the entrance to Fish Paradise is Mc'Ds? As you approach the shop, you'd notice a hugely, nearly 5 feet plus aquarium that frames the entrance! Javaferns and christmass moss only woh! What ...

Sunday, July 26, 2009. New setup tank - Midas haven. It was about time, it took me a good 2 weeks to repair and re-setup my diamond shaped aquarium; this time with a lil' more caution, we'd decided to place the tank outside! Only survivor from last month's leaking incident were the convicts, and a single midas cichlid. . First time i saw this fish, i thought it was a typical tilapia of some weird origin! Hopefully, life here wouldn't be as stressful! What better fishes then tigerbarbs! I caught this guy ...

Sunday, September 20, 2009. Picking up a family tradition - fishing. These days, it's been a while i'd sit down to update my blog as i'm getting caught up with a new/old hobby - angling! Thanks to my dad's influence over the years, i'm trying my hands these days of fishing! After loosing all my cichlids over a tank leak. A few months back, we've decided these time around to catch 'em fishes :) Twas' began a new era of bluffing 'em fishies! Afterall, every angler has their secret fishing spots :) If u rea...

Tuesday, May 26, 2009. 88 Petsmart Sunwaymas - 'in search of the mighty nerite'. It's a long over-due post, sorry! I've been caught up with stuff and unfortunately this blog took a secondary priority :) Also, my tank has been swarmed by all sorts of algaes! I've got pre-dominantly staghorns, green and blackbeards. All over my tank. Even with up-ping the co2 dosage didn't even put a dent in its growth! So i've been thus looking for a bunch of nerites. SLS. Well, time to go snail hunting again! Seeing the...

Monday, August 9, 2010. Stocking my new 6feet tank. After a few fishing trips which were uneventful. we started "cheating" and using this new contraption to catch the midas cichlids! Nothing seems to work to entice them to take the bait, worms, mix chicken feed, guppies, prawns, even homemade lures! Which incidentally hasn't caught anything at all, lol! Cast it with a rod to where you think the fishes are and they'd get entangled in it! And that was the only way we manage to land them fishes! Doesn't loo...
