What Fish to keep?

Re: What Fish to keep?

May I know how much does a set up like this costs? Does it make any noise from the pump or stuffs? Is there such thing like an auto feeding system so that the fishes do not starve when owner is away for say a week or so?

Thanks for any advice.

Autofeeder? Got. Cheap cheap nia....

A full planted tank setup could be anything from a few hundred to thousands.

If you want a quiet setup you can't have an OVH filter, esp for a planted tank. You will need a cannister filter and a good, reliable and quiet one like the Eheims will cost around $150 if you get from the right shop. My Eheims have served me almost 9 years without leaks and I can barely hear them running.

Depending on the plants you want to keep, you may need a CO2 setup and possibly chillers for some temperate mosses. And yes, the auto feeders are relatively cheaper than the rest of the equipment unless you get the high end ones.

It's a poisonous hobby, I'm sure some of us here have spent more on fishes, plants and shrimps over the years than we have on our rides. All started from that $1 fish I bought from that famous fish farm that is now listed on the exchange... :verysad:

You can keep ottos too. They look like little dogs and feed on algae. Much cuter and cheaper esp compared to the L series!

Yup. L series are sort of like "pedigree" sucker fishes. Likewhat KT posted. More expensive than ottos in general.

Slap a tiny BMW sticker on the L series' forehead, it'll not only look good, but clean the tank better too! Badge whore alert!

Those on the pics above are L046 zebra plecos. There are hundreds of plecos with different L-series numbers. You can visit this site to see all of them. Price ranges from $10 to tens of thousands. Some are rare and may not even be available in SG.

All L-Numbers • Cat-eLog

The L046 zebra plecos are extremely loveable, so much so that there are whole forums dedicated to them:

ZebraPleco

Depending on seasons, you can usually get them at the popular live fish shops (LFS) in Clementi (328), Yishun (618), Nanyang Aquarium near Jln Kayu, the breeding farms or from other fish-keepers.

Good to read up more about the tank requirements eg. water pH and temperature as well as compatibility with other freshwater life, so that your fishes can live longer!
