Fish Shopping At Qianhu

 

There's a snail infestation going on in my community tank right now and they are killing my Anubias!

Although I have feeder Guppies and Cories in the tank, they seemed inept at keeping the snail population under control.

I had to crush them with my bare hands but no matter how many I killed, more would appear the next day.

I started surfing for solutions to my problems and found my answer in the form of Clown Loaches and the Pufferfish.

Therefore, a fish-shopping trip to Qianhu is in order!

My favourite Amazonian fish

I won't be getting any new fish before my snail problem is solved.
I'm still undecided between Angels or Barbs...



Angels from the planted display tank!





Red-Bellied Pirahnas?

Nope, that's just their vegetarian cousins, the Pacus.


Pearlscales!

I adore these cute little sea mines!

Made my purchases!

Yay!

Clown Loaches

And what's this?

Yellow Puffer!


Awww! Look at those puffy eyes!

*Puffers are loners thus should be housed alone.

I'll be housing him in a separate tank once my snails problems are eradicated.


Took some random shots while waiting for the Qianhu feeder bus service...



Autumn?

Butt Crack!

TEEHEE

Your small puffer fish can live in normal water tap? Or it need saltwater?

@tekkaus - 

It's still alive now so I think mine should be freshwater.

Oh! So you have fish as pets! I don't cos no time to take care of them! LOL! Hopefully the snail problem will be solved with the addition of clown loaches and the puffer fish : )

I think the Puffer is really effective. Can't see much snails now.
