Hi

I'm definitely new to Lou han and no I did not keep any although I help my brother-in-law to set up his tank. Now he has 8 of them. As mentioned, they are territorial and this means they cannot be kept together, otherwise 'shio pah'. This is the first thing that put me off as I prefer community fishes. And all of us fish lovers knows that you once you in it, it is very difficult to stop buying, you will tend to buy more and this means getting more tanks or like FS did, put seperator. This also means less space for the luohan.

Having said all this, I do find them interesting and after reading the battle that Kev had in Aus, it makes me understand this fish better. BUT I will try not to appreciate then otherwise I will be into it and it spells trouble with my MRS..... But I can say that the craze is still very strong here in Singapore, everywhere I go, ppl will just crowd around those tanks with louhan and when I say ppl, I mean lots of them. Just last weekend when I when to this area where they have numerous fish farms and shops clutter together, you can see ppl carrying tanks back and in it, afew louhans.....

I share eugene sentiment....when will this craze stops??? It deprives ppl like me from admiring other fishes (bcoz all the space is taken up if you know what I mean)

Hope I won't be ban from visiting here again....
