I got this archerfish a couple months ago and the fish store got a few more in. I thought it was a Toxotes chatareus when I first got it but it kind of also looks like Toxotes microlepis. Would 3 do well together in a 150 and what species is it?

Hi, sorry about the super long post This year I rescued some bichirs that were going to be euthanized (because they were unwanted, had small bites on the fins, or other dumb reasons) and I have been meaning to sell and/or rehome them. I thought I would have sold them by now but have been too...

from what IU can tell it looks like a fat snook to me, but am not 100% sure

Here are some better pictures. Had to move him to the 150 since the 20 gallon was getting too small

I’ve had him since about around February. I got him from fugupuff’s Suriname shipment. It’s grown 1-2 inches since when I got it (1 most likely)

I’ve had this snook for a while and was wondering if anyone could tell me what species this is. Sorry for the poor quality, this fish hides a lot and I haven’t been able to get a better picture recently

Yeah, I remember once mine got bigger I figured it probably wasn’t a moke especially with the pattern and size, but wasn’t sure what species. Yours is really cool. Love the green on it

unfortunately the tank crashed last night due to a mishap with the circulation. Lost everything except my weeksii, a barb, a snakehead gudgeon and a bullhead. what is the main difference between polli and mokelembembe for Idebtification

True. I’ll try not to let it bother me. It’s been hard since I’ve been losing a lot of fish in different systems to stuff like this (not the same, but like they are doing well for a while and then suddenly die in less than an hour). I can’t figure out anything that could cause it and none of...

Just did a large water change. Unfortunately the bichir died an hour or so after my post. Everyone else seems fine so far, though I’m going to keep watch

(URGENT) I’ve had a 12” mokelembembe for about a year and it’s been doing pretty well. This morning (around 9am) it was hanging out with my weeksii bichir and everything seemed normal, though it didn’t eat right away. I just passed by the aquarium (12pm) and he started spiraling rapidly and...

good news is it’s still eating ghost shrimp and seems to take interest in frozen food. Bad news is it’s getting way worse. I raised the salinity to 1.005-1.006 and added a couple drops of iodine and did some water changes. Not sure what else I can do unfortunately

Unfortunately the bump seems to be getting bigger

Ill Try breeding both platys and convicts. I tried convicts but every time I bought one thinking it was male (no orange on chest) it turned out to be female (as the orange would then develop) and so I was stuck with a bunch of females. Platys are the only livebearer that I’ve had that I’ve been...

I thought about it but all objects and tankmates are accounted for

I think this lump is a goiter but I honestly don’t know for sure as I haven’t dealt with one before and have only seen pictures of them. Hopefully I’ll be able to target train it soon, though right now there is a juvenile snook, 3 silver tip sharks and a “freshwater lionfish” toadfish in the...

What would you recommend for feeders? I’m currently planning on some platys and possibly some shrimp if I can get the culture started. I want to try to give as much diversity as possible

So my brackish water frogfish has developed a weird lump under his mouth (throat area) a week or so ago and I was think it’s a goiter, though I’m not sure. Thankfully it doesn’t seem stressed, though I’m a bit worried. I will admit its diet hasn’t been great as I haven’t been able to stop and...

Actually looking at my measuring tape it’s closer to 7-8”

About 6in or so
