rare freshwater tropical fish
Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008
This is our 85 gallon community aquarium which we set up in October 2007. We bought all the fish as babies last year and they’ve grown huge. As a result, the fish tank is very overcrowded. I am diligent with water quality and try to change 60% every 2 weeks or so. I know I’ll be criticized for the number of fish.
Here’s the list of fish:
4 Black Bar Myleus “Tetra disco” “Blackear Pacu” (Myleus Schomburgki)
3 Common Silver Dollar (Metynnis Hypsauchen or Argenteus)
2 Mystery Silver Dollars (Metynnis Mola or Luna)
1 Flagtail (Semaprochilodus taeniurus)
1 Silver Distichodus (Distichodus affinis)
1 Chinese Hi Fin “Hifin” Banded Shark (Myxocyprinus asiaticus)
1 Earth Eater Cichlid (Geophagus jurupari)
2 Fancy Goldfish (Carassius auratus)
4 Rosy Red Minnow (Pimephales promelas)
3 Angelfish (Pterophyllum scalare)
1 Keyhole Cichlid (Aequidens maroni)
4 Pleco (Plecostomus)
1 Royal Pleco (Panaque nigrolineatus)
1 Blue Gourami ((Trichogaster trichopterus)
9 Bumblebee Goby (Brachygobius xanthozona)
8 Black Neon Tetra (Hyphessobrycon herbertaxelrodi)
3 Rasbora (Rasbora heteromorpha)
2 Albino White Cloud Minnow (Tanichthys albonubes)
2 Darter Fish
1 Bluefin Killifish? (Lucania goodei)
4 Hillstream Loach (Beaufortia kweichowensis)
1 Weather “Dojo” Loach (Misgurnus anguillicaudatus)
2 Horseface Loach (Acantopsis choirorhynchos)
1 Neon Blue Australian Rainbowfish (Melanotaenia praecox)
6 Kuhli Loach (Pangio kuhlii)
8 Ghost Shrimp (Palaemonetes)
5 Apple Snails (Ampullariidae)
Yes, I know this is an odd ortment of fish. It was an experiment to see if this random group could “hang” together. So far so good. This tank is unusual not only for the variety of species but the size variences which range from 1/2 inch to 9+ inches.

Juwel Trigon 190L Tropical Fish tank.
An idea for a DIY/science project I thought of. Suggestions welcome and I’ll do a video of the thing working if I get round to it.
Jennys Salt water Fish tank with beautiful fish! trying to catch coral beauty because Clowns are not getting alond with the new family member proves quite difficult
My first tropical fish tank, although he pearl gourami seems to be hiding in this vid. Roughly a 2ft tank with stingray filter, elite heater, real plants, solid marble pieces, some stuck together to make columns, black/white gravel and a sunglow bulb. I did have a siamese fighter but i exchanged him as i was restricted to some nice fish i want in there. Please feel free to add any comments, still learning!
125 Gallon Marine aquarium. Relax and enjoy.
Here is my 56-gallon column aquarium. My tank houses three Columbian Sharks, two Banded Leporinus catfish, one Iridescent Shark, one False Tigrinus (rare) catfish, one beautiful Jack Dempsey cichlid, one Hypostomus Plecostomus, one Freshwater Flounder and a shy Freshwater Marble Mooray Eel. These fish are ultimately going into a 220 gallon aquarium.
these fish are totally chilled out
