Thanks people im glad you like my tanks

My favourite tank changes all the time, I think the Ctenopoma are my favourite fish though.

Having a look on the forum there are loads of great pictures, think im going to enjoy the photography section on here

Here's some pics of the actual fish:

Hi Veil92,

Thanks

The Ctenopoma get: crickets, meal worms, wax grubs, locally harvested Crangus (common brown shrimp), Mysis, midge larvae, mosquito larvae, some fresh greens, flies, fish meat etc etc Basically anything they can fit in their mouths, which are huge!
