In Grief

Why no update lately? Someone asked me. There are even people who accused me of no longer into blogging. The truth is, I’m in grief right now. On 8th of August 2007, I bought an aquarium with 2 gold fishes, 6 male guppies and 6 female guppies. The following day I bought another 5 neon tetra and 1 bandaraya fish. It does not stop there, on 10th of august, I bought another 5 neon tetra. Now my aquarium full of young, healthy, sweet looking and adorable fishes, feeding them and watching them swimming and do head diving is very pleasing and soothing.

Neon Tetra

Everyday when I reach home I’ll seat next to the aquarium with my lovely daughter feeding them. It never came to my mind to do the head count of the fish. I just feed them and feed them and feed them. Every day twice a day without a miss. About a week later, My wife told me there’s one dead fish in the aquarium, its head is missing. I, fast and furiously with neon light glowing under me checked the aquarium. What did I found? No there’s no dead fish in my aquarium. But what’s more surprised me was, there’s only 1 neon tetra left in the aquarium? What!? Only 1, I bought 10 which costed me RM20.00, there shoud be 10 neon tetra in my aquarium and not 1. I questioned the lonely tahap dewa tetra, it cannot give me the answer, I asked the other fishes, the didn’t answer me the question, instead keep on eating until they bloated like buntal.

I conducted head count, 1 neon tetra left, 9 went missing. 7 guppies left, 5 went missing, 2 gold fishes and 1 bandaraya. And there’s no dead bodies in the aquarium. Apparently, there’s cannibal holocaust happening in aquarium and I’m in grief.

Mourning period for 1 whole hour.

The truth is, I’m very busy right now with my work which pay me salary of which I use to pay for our living. Therefore, priority must be given to them.

bro, before you mix the fish, did you ask the shop whether they can be mix or not. Maybe they don’t suit to be together.

Well, mine pun tinggal bandaraya sahaja. dah asyik takde kat rumah, mana lah bini aku larat tengok kan ikan2 tu.

btw, you aquarium ni, yang jenis biasa tu ke or kau beli yang jenis canggih tu?

Saya Adalah Salah Seorang Yang Terlibat Dalam Pembelaan Ikan Akuarium Ini. Mula Berjinak² Dalam Bidang Ini Beberapa Bulan Lepas. Saya Memang Mencintai Binatang Dan Sekarang Cukup Fanatik Dengan Ikan. Dan Paling Terkini Saya Membeli 2 Ekor Lobster Beberapa Hari Lepas Untuk Diternak Bersama Ikan Di Dalam Akuarium. Malangnya Nafas Lobster Itu Hanya Bertahan Hingga Tadi. Maka Tadi Juga Memember Saya Telah Membarbeque Kan Lobster Itu Dan Meratah Mereka Selahap Mungkin.
Saya Tidak Makan Sekali.. Huhuu..
Entri Berkaitan Dengan Ikan & Lobster Ini Akan Saya Tulis Dalam Masa Terdekat. Bolehlah Kalau Kita Berkongsi Rahsia & Pengalaman Dalam Bidang Perikanan Pula Lepas Ni Yeh…
Wassalam..

I Will Put Your Link At My Blog..
