Nonono. That one not big longkang. Is just a small drain.

my childhood hobby... if ur staying near the east u can try Goodman Road area, Tanjong Katong Road or the whole area around the Kallang Mcdonald and KFC, the small drains by the main road. a lot of wild strains

Hi bro went to check that spot you mentioned few days backed. Really got guppies but i never go catch. It's the small longkang behind the bus stop which has bus service 88 and 72 right?

Feel like trying my luck there. The little wild guppies are very pretty!

changi point ponds got lotsa guppies. i think i will throw some culls there too!

BKE towards PIE beside the Singtel Satellite( Rifle Range) there's 3 kind of big pond perhaps there still there. I stay around there (kampung Chantek), and used to swim and fishing there too. Wild Tiger barb, gyppy and a lot kind of fish, Moved out from kampung Chantek 1987,

Looks fun.

Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems that there is no true wild guppy in Singapore since guppies are not native to Singapore?

Extract from link above:

"The guppy is named after the Rev. J.L. Guppy of Trinidad, an early collector of the species from the late 1800's. Guppies (Poecilia reticulata) are placed in the family as mollies and mosquitofish.

Natural habitat

The wild, original guppy is native to Central America, as well as Trinidad and northern South America. Today, many guppies are found in Asia, especially Singapore, where many fancy strains are bred in large fish farms, and shipped to pet stores all over the world."

The wild guppies are those that people have thrown into long kang etc and They breed among themselves. Some have turned out to be pretty nice.
