Your favorite mini-monster fish

Honeycomb catfish. Lazy at day, zooped up at night. Love them! Still growing out, but super cute

How do you view them? Blue lights or what?

Very good choice Hendre!

Thanks!

How do you view them? Blue lights or what?

I just leave the lights off for 10 minutes, add food and then use my phones flashlight. When they are eating it does not seem to bother them

Oh ok I was curious. I use to use the night time feature when I had bigger wolves. I was curious how viewing would be on these tiny things.

Bumblebee catfish are a favorite mini catfish of mine.

I don't really consider a 5" fish mini, to me, something around 2-3" or less might be mini.


Something like the 2" mouth brooding Betta albimarginatta above from streams in Borneo.
Or the 3" killi, Funulopanchax sjoestedtii

Something that only Aussies can get (I think), not a fish, but very cool anyway. Notopala Waterhousei, they are livebearing freshwater aquatic snails. Photos don't do the bright blue-purple with pink poka dots of their squishy bits justice. They grow to the size of a small stone fruit. Won't touch your plants, and do I good job of cleaning up algae.
Picture I found online

I like my EBAs.
