Wild Singapore Part 4

Field Trip 8 Nov 2007

Unplanned trip. Actually scouting around for possible Betta Tomi habitat. Met John and his friend Matthew catching fish at a known Pugnax habitat. They have got couple of gobies and big channa gachua. Caught 4 pugnax for John, 3 males and a female. One of the male was mouthbrooding. Unfortunately the biotope was a little disturbed before the picture was taken. The biotope was formed from water seepage from the nearby reservoir through underground piping. A stream must have been there originally and now a service road actually run across this place.



Continuing the wild search, came across this stream that is wild and seems untouch. Rasbora, barbs are a common inhabitant. There's plenty of wild guppy. Collected a few for my tank. Some of the flora around the stream. Search still goes on for Tomi habitat

Wild Singapore

15 April 2007

Many undiscovered wild haven in Singapore has yet to be appreciated by enthusiast. A small stream flowing from some underground natural water place, forming a small stream. Wild guppy were the only fishes seen. The water is contaminated with diesel smelling water. However the natural flora and fauna is unbelieveable. Birds chirping sounds like parrot but not able to confirm as they can't be seen. A star fruit tree is amongst the only tree recognizable
