My latest hobby


Guess what is my latest hobby?


Right....... fish rearing. Not by my choice but my children's idea. They bought the materials and set them up. I take over from there. Nothing professional - no nice aquariums, no air pumps, no fanciful decorations. Just the basic - 2 big porcelain pots, coarse sand, small rocks and stones.




One pot is placed at one corner of the dinning area. Inside are 3 small goldfish and a small black guppy. The other pot is placed in the front balcony. Swimming inside this pot are 20 tiny assorted fishes. A packet of about 30 such fishes cost only rm2. Very cheap. Hahaha...

It is really fun to see them grow every day. However, I do have a problem here. Every time I change the water, a few of the tiny fishes will die. Could it be that I have no fish fingers? A person who is good with plants is said to have green fingers. Similarly, if a person is good at fish rearing, then he should be said to have FISH FINGERS ??!!!!
