My rare blue piebald West African Lungfish

That's nice, looks like an adorable puppy. What's the size.

Got a full body shot of that lungfish?

always loved lungfishes as a centrepiece fish. too bad the procedure for getting an auzzie lung's too complicated in sg. btw, anyone's seen a sb lung before? always at the back of my head but never seen or heard of.

What's an sb lung?

Don know if AVA will ever change their ruling about Aussie lung.

Tried writing in to AVA before on importing Aussie lungs, was told that we need 8x3x3 pond or tank before we can import and they will make a house inspection (for the tank) before they approve.

However, when I asked them why the underwater world can keep its aussie lung in a 3-4 ft tank, they didnt reply me....lol....

hehe, just don give up on it, AVA is not a stone wall, the human beings behind it would respond to reason. I did try to reason with them before and I sensed they don really understand the issues. When they finally do, the Aussie lung can be freed into Sg tanks, hehe.

that seems like the first step only. heard have to pay annual license fees, just like dogs. abit too much of a headache in my opinion.
