Doomsday Rescue!

[shenzhenluohan]

I rescued these two guys from tiny bags hanging on the side of the street in Hong Kong this morning. The temp was a nippy 17*c so i kept one in each side of my hoodie inside my jacket til we got home. both are doing well and had good bellies and were making waste. So what are they? sorry for the cell phone pics.

Look like L201 hypans to me. Did you get them for free? That makes it even better if you did

Thanks, they were not free but only about 10 bucks each.

Actually, its a very common way to sell fish in Hong Kong. The fish are pre-bagged and sold that way. not very humane in my opinion but it is what it is...

that's different... yeah deff not humane.... probably not the ideal way to see it before it's bagged either...

Actually, being in a bag allows for close inspection, unfortunately you can't witness their in tank behaviour.
