Help! Unknown Species!

I used to have a 60 litre tank for a good two years, it recently cracked, so i upgraded to a bigger, better tank!

ive got 4 fish left and a plec, after a nasty convict cichlid brought a disease into my tank.

Its been two years since I bought these 4 unknown fish, and I cant remember they're name (i seem to remember it being something like shark tetra) and now my local fish specialist wont sell me any more fish, until I can tell him the species, even though they've never been aggressive or hostile over the past 2 years!

i cant seem to attach photos, so if you want to help, drop me your email and ill send the photos i have!


any help would be appreciated, thanks!

cheers again!

Yep! Nice and hardy fish... Interesting though that he doesn't want to sell you anything before you tell him what you got already. Very nice for the fish, but maybe not too good for business

I bet you interrogate "MatsP" everytime he visits

i wish my local shop was like that, before i had a clue my local fish shop sold me 6 male bettas, 1 angel fish and a red tailed shark in 3 goes, they all died, that was 6 years ago thou....

Poor Mat, i was snowed home on sunday and missed him. I do interrogate him though!! I insist he identifies all my unknown species LOL and sexes all my plecs and admires my favourite fish lol
