Which one???
 
I’ll just address them as they come in one thing

tiger fish I looked at them the other day while I was posting this.
Don’t they get way to big?

leopard ctenopoma
aren’t those poisonous?
I’ve thought about getting one leaf fish they call it right would I just feed it feeder guppies.

Electric Catfish
Too big for my tank… don’t they need 135 gallons

Freshwater Flounder
I really like that never seen them.. Where can I find one.

Archer Fish
Where do I find one? Never seen one of these either would it settle for blood worms or brine shrimp?

Hujeta gar
Looks pretty good.

Black ghost knfe.
I already have a brown knife… I heard they don’t get along with other knives is this true.
The black ghost knife looks amazing with the white striped tail

Halfbeak
I’ve thought about this one in the past.

As far as tetra’s go I’ll get some neons for like a buck a piece from my lfs get a ton as good looking food ha.
And I’ve seen the blind cave tetra.. I seriously have been thinking about that one.

African butterfly I’ve really considered as well.. Odd looking fish.

Rope fish.
I used to have 3 I moved my tank did a full clean and put them back in and they found a hole I left uncovered on the hood… one of them had a head as big around as a nickel of course I still have the runt of the batch

so can anyone tell me where to get some of these…
also.. Anyone know where I can buy a purple speghetti eel.

Halfbeaks would be cool.

Don't completely rule out tetras. There is some pretty awesome looking tetras out there.

:iagree:

Halfbeaks are awesome!! Hatchetfish are cool as well, or exodons!!

Lizard fish would be awesome! :)

the electric catfish


I guess that was so silly that I overlooked it -- several times.

Electric catfish (Malapterurus electricus) = 36 inches and kills all tankmates :shocked::shocked::shocked:

Yeah, definitely. Hatchetfish are really cool, they are great schooling fish, plus they are a really odd shape. But I'm a little biased ;)
 
lizard fish looks amazing..
I can't find anything on it really though sadly

Message Fugupuff and Alex (fishroomplus) they get them in quite often. :) They are great fish!
 
I also found a freshwater moray eel for 19$
55 gallons you think thats a tad bit too small..
they kind of are amazing.
