Pardon me.

T95 is short for the lot number they are located which is generally used here.

It is Supreme Aquarium which someone had mentioned it is at Seletar.

They are listed in our LFS directory.

1 of the old pioneer and popular LFS in the heyday.

BESIDE FISHS, GOT ANY CORAL SHIPMENT.

you will never see 8 line flasher wrasse here.

many countries in asia are contented with asfur, purple tang, sohal tang, maculosus and golden butterflies. that's why red sea suppliers do not send the other red sea fishes here.

the people in japan and U.S.A are getting these other fishes from the red sea because they request for them and the market there is bigger. you will be surprised how cheap the fishes below are. 8 line flashers are only around $50, banner fish is 35, white face is about 30 and the red back butterfly is 65. all cheaper than sohal tang, purple tang, asfur angels, but we don't get coz no body knows about them and no body wants them.

when ask about red sea shipment, many ppl will say sohal, PT, asfur. but there are many more beautiful and equally common fishes that we don't get to see. like these.

8 line flasher wrasse

red sea banner fish

white face butterflyfish

red back butterflyfish.

kluzinger's moon wrasse

sankeyi dottyback

so red sea shipment still has potential to expand in our Singapore market.

sorry for off topic.

Lemon,

Since most of the LFSs are sponsors here and you are regular and well known with them. why not have a chat with them to bring them in and try?

i've been trying v hard. i think the LFS also irritated by my pestering lol hehe. everytime i go to LFS, i'm tying to pull connections to get better imports for everyone here.

but there are two kinds of limitations.

1) - other countries are paying much more for the fishes so we cannot get them. our market is small and buying power also small, so we are placed at the bottom priority.

2) - not enough awareness. most of the time i try but the LFS don't know what i'm talking about. also the market for fish here is very small and people are more interested in corals. the lack of interest in fish makes it very difficult also.

there's only so much i can do and i have a few friends here who are helping me and we are trying our best to make something good appear in our local markets but it's not as easy and we cannot do it alone.

so far i've managed to get reborn to bring in marginalis butterflies, iwarna and LCK to bring in marjorie fairy wrasse, and a bunch of other stuff i cannot remember.

now we're trying to get rusty x flame angel hybrids, roseafascia, pintail fairy wrasse and other beautiful things into our country but it will take awhile.

you will be surprised how much we're missing out. philippine and indo shipments are supposed to be the treasure throve of gems but also we cannot get. so be patient! hope our efforts pay off.

again, sorry for the off topic.

Bros understand golden butterflies are difficult fishes. Anyone successful in keeping them? Very tempted to try out but want to find out more before jumping in.

not very difficult.

moderate. if you acquire healthy specimen, give them some time to settle down and no stress, they will start feeding.

not reef safe.

lck shipment today:

Sri Langka

Indonesia

I believe is fish stock. Timing to be confirm but will be most likely today.

Coral Shipment tmr:

Malaysia

Do note that coral shipment will be tomorrow.

List unknown, only will be confirmed upon arrival.

If a man could beat his own fantasy. Then to only breed in captivity. Then its pointless.

Genesis 1:20

And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

      FOC Coral Bandid Shrimp

      Hi, I'd need to give away my CBS named Shadow. He's a decent sized guy, been with me for a few months, a darling of a shrimp. But he's started attacking my small fish, fish have gone missing through the months, few have died the past week. Unsure him or anything else. My current fish are all healthy. Free of charge. Just promise to take good care of him. Please quarantine him first, or put him in a fishless setup for a few weeks. Self collect at Indus road. Cheers.
