dis i kinda agree too cos i those tubi that i bought in the earlier day as compare to those previously bought (in the afternoons) tends to be tougher.

just to share recent experience.....

normally i can keep my tubi for 2-3 days no prob if i gt left overs. i just add water n ktp water in a basin n add air bubble.
recently, the tubi cannot even last more than 15-20mins like that. on top of that, the leftovers in the fries tank also die within a matter or minutes. i suspect is the water in my area...
to combat this problem, i wash the tubi at the shop n bring home in a big plastic bag. i'll take out whatever i need n refrigerate the rest. wash before adding into the tank n make sure its cunsumed before they die. so far so good this method lasted me from thursday till now. tubi in the bag still red n no signs of dead tubi

wonder if any bros have the same experience as me. i stay less than 2km away from a newater plant n i suspect its the newater

must be the newater thingy romance...

i forgot where i read from...but its within this forum...went to do some research...

DON USE TAP WATER ON THURSDAY FOR UR WC OR ANYTHING...

becos thursday they will use newater for island wide water consumption...and during that period the level of chlorine and chloramine is extremely high....cos need to make sure the water is extra safe to be consume (some of our bro can even smell the chlorine in CCK)...

i tink thats the reason why ur tubi die fast?
