Hi Samuel,

You are really a great help to us with this list. It took me a while to find out where I could get live Daphnia and especially to those of us who are new to this hobby.

Keep up the good work!

Warmest regards,

Marcus

Guys, this is great. [col] However, it would really help to have the contacts Telephone Numbers (important: can call to find out availability first) and Full address (if possible).[hlp]
I stay in Siglap and it is really hard to find reliable supply in the East Coast area.[bh] Easterners please contribute.[tx]
Is 33, 38 Lorong Halus a farm or LFS?

Is it a shop that is on the left hand side after the entrance and all the way to the end?
The last shop sells Luo Han and the shop the sells the daphnia also carries some Luo Han ...

Daphnia sold in pkts of $1 and normally unwashed and put in fibre-glass tanks.

Shop tended by an old man?

At L33 ... they also have a aquatic plant farm?

Dear All,
Far East Aquatic is pleased to inform that they have acquired new sources of Daphnia supply and is now able to meet with more demand from us. This place is owned and run by a cheerful lady by the name of Karin.
For those of us who regularly buy from this place, we know from the way Karin packs her daphnia, that only(or close to 100%) live ones are scooped and packed. Its the high quality that resulted in demand-over-supply situation all this while.. right until the new sources are confirmed.
So for those who want good quality and consistent supply of daphnia, go get them at :
Far East Aquatic.
23 Simon Road.
Singapore 545909.
Tel 63833733.
It's opposite the Heartland Mall and a few minutes walk from Kovan MRT.
Cheers.

just to supplement u. ronnie's recommendation. daphnia must be ordered beforehand, either the day before or the day of collection at 12pm. anything after this timing will depend on whether kerine is willing to cannibalise those of regular customers.

open your eyes for quality bettas too because sometimes.. just sometimes, treasures can be spotted.
