Aquascaping (part iii) & New Year

Happy New Year all!!

The bigger plants in my aquarium died. Guess I'll have to be content with java moss and those river grass.

Got myself 10 guppies, 10 neon tetras. Gonna get a corydora (a type of catfish, but supposedly it eats algae and don't grow as big as pleco a.k.a ikan bandaraya).

Changed the water at 4am yesterday when I saw the gills of the fishes turned red (possible ammonia/nitrate poisoning).

Bought the guppies yesterday, and today found out the females gave birth to bout 20+ small fries.

Now I've no idea what to do with the little ones...

Had some friends over for New Year. Pretty low key affair comprised of close friends, some of whom I haven't met for quite some time. So... thanx to:
  • Wan for the potato salad appetiser. Funky color, dude!
  • Leo & Amri for the roasted chicken, chocs. Yeap, Ayamas's garlic sauce kicks ass!
  • Hard & Azrul for the spaghetti bolognaise, jelly de la creme mon ami (or whatever the dessert's name is). Yum!
  • Is & Shah for the signature drink SodaGelak and signature munchie CucurGelak.
  • Safuan for the grubs & munchies, cranberry sauce, yummy dips, and best-in-class Pringles.
  • Awis for the brownie & ice-cream dessert.
Played ps3 (no, i can't afford one and until there're 'cheaper copies' of the games, i won't buy it), charades (competitive bunch we are, aren't we?), watched movies (mostly halfway, different taste), discussed New Year Resolutions (new year, same resolutions, get it?!).

Well, cheers to all and thanx for coming!
