List of New Friends

[Butterfly Betta]

He isn't giving it away, for those that would like it [myself included] cause it cost 4,050 dollars with shipping and handling.

But he does have an idea for a freshwater fish list. He might turn have of it into a terrian area, but right now he is concerned about the fish.

I'll give you the list. The pics are taken from elsewhere with the info to give you an idea about the fish.

6 Glass/Ghost Catfish

4 Giant Cory Catfish

[possible, probably not] 2 Asian Shark Catfish

4 Red Finned Loaches

7 Zerba Loachers [loves their color]

4 blue Rams + 4 Yellow Rams

5 Flying Foxes

5-10 Tiger Barbs
http/fish.mongabay.com/cyprinds.htm [seven from top]

5-8 Cherry Barbs

Of course, there is room for changes, adjustments and the such... The fish WON'T be ADDED all at once of course.

Any personal experiences with these fish, any other ideas

 

[Lateral Line]

Any site that recommends Chinese Algae Eaters and a shoal of Cherry Barbs has got to be suspect. CAE's are not suitable community fish, and Cherry Barbs are non-shoaling fish that are best kept as a pair or trio 1 male, 2 females, more and you risk fighting in all but the largest of tanks.

Your poll os suggesting different sizes of fish for different tank levels? If so most fish with a mouth big enough to swallow another will swallow it so I would rethink, your fish should all be resonably preportional to each other.

Good Luck
