R** S** Aquarium

[magern2]

My eyes coulf not believe me when I went there yesterday. this formerly purely freshwater aquarium fish shop is starting to bring in marine fish. Don't go out of ur way to go there, tho. I haven;t yet found out what they selling. The 2 spartan marine holding tanks were both empty. All sold out, the lady said.

Do you mean Red S*a? If so, then I suppose you're too young to remember when they sold marines, and was probably one of the earliest, easily accessible shops to do so in the early 80s....

[wedgee]

Ya man, i was really fascinated by their air-conditioned, slightly dim-lit shop, with these tanks of marine pleasures....

Too bad they went fresh-water...and now, guess its back to square one???

[Dazza]

yeah Re. Se. was one of the oldest ard. By the way is Mr Lau still running the place. I went there during my school days in the late 70s & when I went there at their parklane place about 3 years ago, Mr Lau was still ard.

[Mellow]

yah, red sea has been ard for a long time man...really established aquarium... is mr lau that guy in specs and the wife quite plump one?? he's a funny chap man... used to go to the lan shop there

[Dazza]

When I went there a couple of yrs ago, he was the only one still tending the shop. So wont be surprised if hes the one there. Dont really know his wife tho..... To be politically correct.... not plumb but slightly horizontally challenged...

[regularguy]

To be politically correct.... not plumb but slightly horizontally challenged...

vertically challenged means not tall enough so horizontally challenged means not fat enough??

haha... joking!

[Dazza]

yeah man u r rite hahaha. Shd be horizontally over-challenged hahaha

[emperorangel]

Mr.Lau still looks and talks the same I went there the other time and the shop still carries very old 70's stuff! it's kind of cramp in there and with very limited marine stock and sometimes none at all.

[seamonkee]

No joke?!? Old 70s Stuff?!? Do marine equipment has vintage value?? hehehe...

I remembered him way back too when he used to sell marine fishes... In fact, when I juz came into marine reef keeping recently, he was the first shop I could recalled. But was disappointed when I went to the shop and saw that he was selling FW....

Now that he's back in the SW scene, I would go check it out again... hehe...

[magern2]

Has anyone visited that place since my post? What is available there? My guess would be....... at least....clownfish.
