OMG! Look at these hybrids and rare fishes!


Recommended Posts

Thats a good sign...

Only good sign for consumers. Bad sign for industry people. If they cannot maintain the price of this fish, very soon it will become a worthless fish.

Always something more important than fish.

I was love bandits... if only they do not need cooler waters

RC discussion always say they maintain their bandit tank at like 22-23 degree for long term success. But i dun think any of the reefers here are able to do that, running the chiller at such a low temp in singapore is impractical. I mean so many bandits have been brought in before and everytime all bought by reefers, but i've never seen any discussion here in sgreef regarding their success or failures base on their own experience, or any QT and temp issues etc raised. Wat we know are wat we read in overseas forum and websites. I really wish to know how true it is and wat happens to all the bandits that our reefers have bought. Whoever owns or owned a bandit, pls come out to shed some light and share w us your experience on your bandit.

My own experience is a bad one as the fish i got was big and develop some red bruised markings (signs of breaking down) on the body and died in days. So i dun dare to try another time unless the fish has been in LFS for some time and do not show the signs of breaking down. But sadly bandits are always snatched up within a week, they never stay long enough.

Yes, had bad experience with Bandit too.

Suspect due to internal infection from decompression handling.

Wonder anyone manage to keep Bandit locally for long?

Care to share some tips here :rolleyes:
