faq Posted July 28, 2007 Author Share Posted July 28, 2007 Tnx Bro for the advise. Was wondering why cut a line at the bottom of the bottle to insert mirror when I think would be easier to insert the mirror before inserting the the inverted front of the bottle back into the bottle itself. Hope I got your idea correctly. Tnx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tijou Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Bro, the best method to catch any fish from your tank is to wake up around 6 am before sunrise. Just turn on the aquarium lightings, the fishes are blinded for at least good 10 minutes. Than use your net to catch it. Allthe fishes blur blue one, you can even touch them..Sure can one...

faq Posted July 30, 2007 Author Share Posted July 30, 2007 bro, These fishes are smart. The problem is when U on the lights at 6. am, most probably U find them hiding between rocks. Never see them sleeping in the open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tijou Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Bro, Smart people keep fish.. use some stick to disturb them than they will swim out lah.. you touch them they also won't move much.. Til date, I never failed to catch a single fish out using this method.. think about it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member Nitro Posted August 2, 2007 SRC Member Share Posted August 2, 2007 tijou > u sounded funny in ur explanation... Haha I add on, "Smart ppl keep stupid fish, Stupid ppl keep smart fish".

When I switched on the night in the wee hours of the morning, I saw this fish right btwn the rocks. Like U said, used a cane to push it out into the open and bingo I just net it out without even the fish knowing what happened. It is now swimming in my sump. Simple workable but great idea from U. Will be posting soon to sell the flames angel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
