I went to the fishmonger in the soi and bought five zebra fish (10 baht per fish) and five tiger barbs (five baht per fish).
I felt some of my old interest in the aquarium hobby come back as I bought the fish and released them in the tank. I let the plastic bags with the new fish float in the tank for a while, then mixed water from the tank with the water in the bags to let them get used to their new environment. They were disoriented and stressed at first but calmed down quickly. Chalerm predicted their imminent death but I hope not.
The tiger barbs are fun to watch since they are so naughty.

Tiger barbs sort of like Thai boys, eh?
