Infrequent motley fishes

I guess many of you have been to Kuching International Airport. Sending people fetching people. How will you react when you see no one in an airport? Not even a single human being!

Gosshhh....Kind of deserted and uninviting at all. Walking aroung the same place without any recreation to be entertained at all. How will this going to attract foreign tourists? But i was wrong. I stumbled upoon a big square box which is placed right at the end corner. Indeed, we have our own unthinkable way to attract tourists. Probably Kuching International Airport can be revived.

Yeayea.. it's an aquarium. As a Kuchingnites, i would reckon that this aquarium might consists common fishes that you can easily find at the fish shop. But when i took a closer observation, i was pretty astounded to see various attractive fishes in it.

The water was so clean and uncontaminated at all. The aquarium was so gaudy with those colourful fishes swimming freely around.

They even provide the name of those fishes. Take a look. If you ever think that your name is too long to by heart, I'm not referring to you Wui Jie , browse through these fishes' family names and you will be thankful of yours.

Loooooooooooooonnnnggggggggggggggggggggg name.

I wonder why most of the fishes' common names end with "tang". Are they foochow or hakka?

Okay, maybe those "tang" fishes are chinese. One of the fishes, Pterosynchiropuk splendidus. Wait a minute, Splendid?? haha is known as Mandarin fish. No comment.

And, guess what i've found?

Look back at this picture. Try to find something unique and special.

Dory, the forgetful fish, is known as Blue Tang?? What "tang" again?? Okay, this is still acceptable. But why Hippo? There's such a big difference between a hippo and a fish~~
