Shopping for fish is actually very tiring... Yesterday had a trip down there with Mom and Grams for some quality, quantity and cost scouting. And I had a lesson from the owner(I think). He was very knowledgeable and taught me alot of things and answered alot of my questions. Believe me when I say 'ALOT' of my questions...Cos I have tons! But he answered them one by one and taught me alot....And guess what?I finally know why Nemo, Bubbles, Dory, Ms Cuttle, Dudu, and Betsy died.... Cos we washed the sponge of the filter... With tap water. Seriously.... I didn't know taking care of fishes was that much knowledge... esp Sea Water Fishes. So, back to the topic. I was shopping for fishes today, early in the morning... wanted to get it donein the centre before 11.30am, and hopefully my quilt cover on the floor. So, the buying was fine, and I had help getting the water from the shop to my centre. Problem starts after I reached the centre.The thing is, the teacher was cooking with the children, with the tank behind her. So I had a lil trouble getting the filter out and wash (the sponge with salt water just like the uncle said)... But it was ok. I was literally racing against time, so I was frantic and a little but forgetful...The filter was working for awhile, then it stopped (I sorta had this feeling that it stopped) so I get my friend to check for me. And it did stop! So i was a lil confuse... "Why the heck did it stop?" So i left my quilt, and went over to my beloved filter... The filter was really important, cos I have 6 fishes waiting for the filter to work. If not, I cant put them in and I'm nt sure how long can the fishes stay inside the plastic bag (even though it's full of oxygen).I was working on the filter, taking it off, draining the water, putting it bac,k, putting in more water, changing the waters in the tank and doing the taking off-putting back for quite a few more times. Finally decided to call Rachel to get a new filter when she comes in. But cant call thru... Some sort of a fate... Then Teacher Deng came around and switched on the main switch. MAIN SWITCH!!!!I'm SO TOTALLY LAME! STUPID! DUMB! I forgot to check if I had the main switch on. =.=lll HOW TOTALLY LAME WAS THAT? So i retry the filter: add in some salt water and on the switch. Guess what? IT FREAKING WORK!!! Luckily Rachel didn't answer her phone. It's like fate or something... -.-lllI wanted Teacher Deng to help me with the fishes, but the children were all excited, and so was I. I couldn't wait, so I poured the fishes in myself, and had a quick bowl of seafood steamboat as part of my lunch.
