borneo ppl are fucking sick !!!

haha...being a noob, I won't know where to start even. Some fishes maybe but not reptiles or other wild animals. One of the most beautiful cats is the Clouded Leopard, but they are extremely rare.

Dammit, I inadvertantly lost all my websites yesterday when I accepted Firefox 5.0. Lost all my foxtabs links. Unable to find most of them as I usually erase history for reasons of privacy.


Bro ... Some fishes also very rare .. Even some cats and dogs are rare ;) maybe you can start with fishes .. Which you are good at . Not only arowana and rays can make money ..there's also expensive monster fish , koi , goldfish ... Even some sucker fish can be rare .. Collector will pay any price for their hobby especially those rare ones .. Keeping rare animals , fishes , reptiles ..ect It's like driving a lambo among their hobbies friends ... ;)

Very true that nowadays there are hobbyists with deep deep pockets, who will pay for a rare specie. New upmarket LFS are springing up, one recently in Pasir Ris. Their showpiece will be a huge cylindrical aquarium which may be ready in 3 months time. It is already up but maybe they are recycling it now to prepare for some big and rare species. Anything that you have to offer?

One problem in this business will be to find the buyers as there are many old hands who knows this industry inside out.
 
Btw, I understand some species of fish will be banned by AVA soon, namely the gars. A few has already been caught in the reservoirs and these fishes are somewhat aggressive and can grow to monstrous size..
 
Drifter do you smuggle wild animals then?

Sg have what sort of animals that ppl overseas want?

Bro what is LFS ? Yes, I heard that gars are very popular in Singapore recently .. AVA know nuts about fishes , animals and reptiles . If they are young it's easy to pass off as another species ;). That's how stupid AVA is ... No joke . If you know any ppl in animals or fish trade .. They will tell you . I have friends who bring in pitbull puppies from USA ... On paper it writes boxer cross with lab ;) .

LOL live stock are living animals not like shares in the stock market.

I wonder if there are those small time traders that just do it part time locally.


As for blue tarantulas.

Omg when i see a spider i just want to squish it. A spider as big as a tarantula i dunno man i would probably beat the shit out of it. Btw i heard that tarntuals can fire out the hairs on their legs which really hurts when u breathe it in and also their bite is quite nasty but not lethal to humans.
 
Live stocks are indeed like shares ..if lots of ppl breeding it the price will drop .. Common sense right ? As for the tarantulas ... they don't fire hair lol . They just kick hairs .. No big deal . It wont hurt .. You just get itchness on your skin . As for part- time breeder in Singapore .. There's alot ;) . It's an investment . Provided you know which " product " to buy and breed .

Give you a little background. The single biggest transhipment point in the world for prohibited wildlife trade is Singapore. The main entry point is barter trade centre. Singapore does not place priority as it is an urban jungle and has nothing to protect. AVA is not dumb and have told to keep an eye on LFS and certain B holders who sell to locals. The rest can't be bothered. US and Japan are the biggest Market and there are very little restrictions in keeping exotic pets. So why should Singapore bother. It took them 13 years to sign CITES.

if you read at my post carefully ,you will know that im trying to said that singapore is a interchange for wildlife trade ;). if AVA IS NOT DUMB , i dont know what you call it . every shipment landed in singapore theres always afew cartons left behind for singapore market . US wildlife less restrictions ? you must be joking . their wildlife department law are stronger then singapore . they can go international to track down illegal animals traders . if i were to give AVA certain species of reptiles and animals they would not able to tell what species ...AVA have to take photo and send to the states for confirmation ;) . If AVA never receive any complaint from the public ,they will not act . guess you better stick to your politics post ;) . main entry point is barter trade centre ? guess you better double check ;)

scroll ball needs to show off his knowlegde lah.

To tell you the truth i'm not surprised that AVA is so ignorant and bo chup. The entire sg is actually like this. SG is based more on reputation rather than actual expertise. Right at the very top do you think our mini stars and the president etc for eg even deserve their very high pay cos of their explemary work?
 
Wow this thread is interesting. Drifter, you are a regular wildlife expert!!! I have been interested in having a pet for awhile now. Life in SG getting too stressful and getting jaded with cheonging... I want to start with something hardy that wouldn't die on me. Was thinking of goldfish or tortoise but you seem to have opened a whole new realm of possibilities. What would you recommend if I want something slightly more exotic? I am ultra-beginner level and snakes are out hehehe!!!
