2 bettas
1 dwarf puffer
1 african butterfly
1 angel
4 tetras
2 female guppies
1 cory
1 rainbow shark.
1 pleco
and hopefully (KNOCK ON WOOD) with liz and every body elses help i wont lose arnold ... Maybe if im a REALLY good girl santa will bring me a pallette tank and lots of filters:)
 
I stopped counting after one :(
 
I had a huge tank failure, then had someone put soap in my tank a few times (they broke into my room, long story) Id say between 35-45 fish :( I lost 29 in my tank failure the first time... NEVER PUT A TANK ON WHAT YOU THINK IS A STRONG DRESSER!:irked:This list of fallen fish included, electric yellows, clown knives,a ghost knife,a bichir, mbunas, a crayfish, bala sharks, a fw morray eel, 2 bettas, a huge common pleco, rusty cichlid, tiretrack eel, zig zag eel few other common plecos ahh the list continues. :cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry:
 
I've sold and bought a few fish, but in terms of creature that have died under my care...

2 goldfish (died while cycling...i was a newbie, should have done fishless cycling)
2 guppies (not sure why they died)
1 saulosi (went away for one weekend, came back and her eyes had been eaten and she was dead)
1 flower shrimp (eaten while molting)

Overall, not great, but not too bad I guess. I have managed to keep the 50-60 other fish I have alive, including some real beauties in my African tank.
