Shoot To Kill!

Monitor lizards beware!

Monitor lizards @ biawak are really a nuisance in fish breeding. Once these lizards know there are foods @fishes in the pond, they will kept on coming until all the fishes are gone.

Newly Caught Marble Goby

The three stooges

The One That Didn't Made It

Few day ago my friends went fishing at the Ramayah River. They caught a pretty handful of fishes. Some Tilapias, Puyus, Lampan Jawa and three Ketutus @ Marble Goby. I bought the marble goby from them for RM 30.00 give or take. Two of the marble goby went straight to quarantine. The other one can't make it because of a fish hook was stucked way down in its mouth. Yeah... too bad. That night I had fried marble goby for dinner.

Carpet Grass For Earth Pond


The earth pond project is complete but there are still works to be done with it. Weeds to be thrown to keep it tidy. Rocks to be install and maybe I'll put some flowers here and there. My first of many tasks is to remove all the weed around the bund and then I'll grow carpet grass on the bund and around the pond. I've bought a dozen of carpet grass seeds few days ago. Why I chose carpet grass? Its because carpet grass grows relatively well in low-fertile soils and soils with low PH levels. It is also well adapted to moderately drained sandy or sandy-loam soils (in Malay - Gambut). Perfect for areas with heavy annual rainfall and well suited for hilly or flat earth.

Canvas Pond

Rings are 1/2 ft apart.



Height 2 fts. (Water depth 1ft)


Long 7 fts.




Width 5 fts.




Canvas pond are gaining popularity nowadays. Most people likes to purchase ready made structured settlement for their fishes because they can moved it to anywhere they want their pond to be. It is quite cheap and you don't have to get secured loan from your local bank to build one or more. It lasts long and you can consider selling these structured settlements to your friends. I have been frequently asked about how did I build my canvas pond. It is quite easy actually. Mine is the size of 5ft x 7ft x 2ft. I fill it with water until the level reached 1ft. Please note that when you purchase your canvas pond from any retailer, make sure it got double lining, sewn and glued. Some retailer just glued the canvas. My first canvas pond was the glue type and within one week the pond burst. Stress! Stress! The second canvas pond was custom made. It was sewn and glued, I never have to worry about it getting burst. The rings for the ropes are half a foot apart. You may want to place your canvas pond near a water source. Surely you don't want to have to carry buckets of water to fill your pond. Good luck on installing your pond guys.
