The Fish Farm


On my trip to the mangrove in Langkawi, my family went to visit a Fish Farm. The Fish Farm was extremely interesting, with all kinds of rare and odd fishes that we do not commonly see. First, we saw the Archer Fish. Archer Fish are the most odd and fun fish. For the start, the guide put bread on the railings. After a few seconds, many Archer Fish gathered near the bread, and with a mighty force, the fish shot out sprays of water through its mouth. Don't look down of these fish, their aiming is 100% accurate! After just 1 shot, the bread dropped down and all the fish rushed for it. The guide then asked us to put out our hand, and the fish shot water at it. Secondly, the guide put the bread on our hands, and the fish tried to shoot it again. When I lowered my hand, to my surprise, the fish jumped up and bit it, but the guide told us that it had no teeth.

Next, we saw a cow fish. It was a small and yet cute coloured fish, with two horns in front and two at the back. Though it is cute, the look is decieving. Our guide told us that it was very poisonous, and would lower its horns and charge at its enemy. We then saw a big fish, that would use its mouth to bite you and later would suck your blood. We also saw the blowfish(puffer fish). There were lazy fish which would float around and change colour, according to which type of waters it was in. We saw Nemo's friends: stingrays, clownfish, the Regal Tang (that's Dory), baby sharks, moon fish and lastly, we saw Nemo's enemy, the Barracuda.

The Fish Farm will be a great place for anybody!
