What to Buy in goldfish market

All types of shops exist on Goldfish Market, many specialize in just one type of product such as Goldfish, Koi or seawater Marine shops.  Some sell only accessories or focus exclusively on tank decorations. Aquatic plants and different types of seaweeds now also have their own dedicated vendors due to the recent growth of interest in tank dressing. Aquascaping is now very advanced in Hong Kong with Amano-type aquariums just one of the types in fashion.

Amount all this glory to see of course the shops are commercial organizations, though many of the owners are of course enthusiasts themselves they have rents to pay and are keen to make a sale.

So please remember that our market is a commercial district, not a tourist attraction, though we do acknowledge that many people come to view and understand it is purchases that make the shops survive.

Seaweed

On the other hand decorative plants such as seaweed which aquarists are very interested in are also very widely available in Goldfish Market, and these are very transportable.

Accessories

The most common purchases for tourists are of course the various accessories for tanks such as decorations, filters, thermometers
