New pet

Yeah, got a new fish tank on Sun! A friend passed me a fish tank, complete set up with live fishes!!!! So exciting!!!! There are 4 types of fishes now, namely my favourite neon tetras, cardinal tetras, gourami and Kuhli Loach. So nice!

I have always felt that it's very nice giving people fishes because it's a unique gift. It takes great effort to set up a tank and carefully choose the right kind of fishes that the receiver would like. For the recipient, it would also take great effort to care for the fishes in appreciation of the "live" gift. And definitely bonding would take place as both parties discuss about the new pet. So nice!

Haven't seen fishes at home for 20 years (apart from those on dining table). So nostalgic, brings back sweet memories of me overfeeding my goldfishes and they died, haha. Else, they died of hunger cos I didnt feed them, haha. Ok, I own up. I have bad record. *Latest update: 1 tetra died this morning, so fast*

Ever since all the hamsters died and i even gave the cage away (together with my imaginary hamsters - OnLeave and OnMC), it's so boring at home without live animals. Now, there's a new pet to entertain me! It's so relaxing looking at the fishes.

Ok, I think I am going to have lotsa fun.
