The Replacement Gold Fishes

It's been a busy week for me.

Originally, I have 2 projects to complete. Out of sheer coincidence, I suddenly have another 2 computer systems to set up. So it's like... when I'm free, I'm very free... but when I'm busy, I'm very busy. Anyway, I've completed setting up the computers, and I still got one week left to complete the 2 projects.

I realised that the water in my house's fish tank is getting murky, and the gold fishes look listless. My mum usually maintains the fish tank, but she is overseas with my sister. So I decided to take a break from work, and clean up the fish tank! =)


I gently scrubbed the sides and bottom of the fish tank with my bare hands to dislodge the layer of slimy material. After that, I disturbed the residual material lying at the bottom of the fish tank, and use a container to scoop out the dirty water together with any floating material. I did all this, while the gold fishes are still swimming happily in the tank, until the water level is relatively low. After that, I fill up the fish tank with the water from a pail that was left for 2 hours to adjust to room temperature.

However, 2 hours after cleaning, I realised that the resulting fish tank water was even murkier than before I started. O_O" Just when I was wondering what to do... I realised that the fish tank had a water filtering system. I activated it, and soon, the water was clean and clear again. *phew!*

If the gold fishes had died from the dirty waters, I may need to shoot and direct a new movie called "The Replacement Gold Fishes", before my mum and sister returns from their overseas trip (of course!). Incidentally, Punggol has many suitable places to bury dead gold fishes in secret. Heheehe! :X
