My Favourite Hideout : Mainland Tropical Fish Farm (Pasir Ris)

After roaming around at the recent Ranchu fish show, I've decided to blog for the venue of the contest.

The Mainland Tropical Fish Farm at Pasir Ris is one of the places where both my hubby & myself would chillout at when we require a nice quiet place to unwind.

As my hubby is a great lover of fishes, we love hanging around to have a good view of all the fishes & other animals (chickens, roosters, etc) residing at the fish farm.

Viewing is open to the public for free so do enjoy the fresh air & "kampong" life out there at Mainland Tropical Farm before they wind down the place in about 5 years time.

The government had decided to utilise the land at Pasir Ris Farmway for other purposes. It's pretty unfortunate that we had to see the fish farm go when the time comes.

As such, the photographs uploaded here in this thread would become reminiscent of the past in the near future.

This is a photograph of the fish farm from the exterior.

All the photographs in this thread featuring the fish farm & their inhabitants are not uploaded in any particular sequence and would be done so at random.

We hope that viewers would enjoy looking at what interest us & made us laugh at times when we look @ the animals...

When I saw these fishes caught in the net, it made me feel sad. I sincerely hope that their new owners would provide them a conducive environment so that they could thrive well.

These are definitely Koi Fishes.

My hubby was trying to take photographs of the roosters when this chap came eye to eye with us when we were busy shooting photographs ...

So we've decided to jazz it up by including captions in these photographs:

Shrubs
We spotted these fruits & flowers growing out of a shrub that looked more like a type of short palm tree.

Although we're not certain if it's a common sight to see such a breed of shrub flowering, we had decided to upload a couple of photographs of it since we're nature lovers.
