The current fad fish is the cichla, once it was the stingrays, the beani, the armatus, the dats, polys, the gulpers. It has been a while since it was the gulpers though.. It seems to be stuck on all the peacock bass species at the moment as to what most people are keeping and selling.
I keep polys ebjd and saltwater for the most part at the moment.
I've got an 80g with one wild caught Peru Oscar, about to upgrade him to 125g.
A 55 with 5 angelfish, a green sunfish, a 6" raphael cat, a giant otto and a giant colombian ramshorn snail.
A 10g quarantine with two adopted blind cave tetra babies. I'm growing them out for now.
A 5g acrylic indoor pond kept green by 24/7 lighting. Has actively reproducing turbo snails, tubifex or detritus worms, and fairy shrimp. I love the fairy shrimp.
1g. At the bottom of my 10g tree frog tank is an inch of water with one male guppy. No heater and he eats twice a week. Had him at least six months and he looks fat and sassy.
i keep central and south american cichlids, with some african and tanganiykan , polypterus, knives, pikes, eel, plecos and some other odd balls. not all in the same tank
Cheers people, now what you mean about the cichla, love em!! jst managed to get 3 oroncinensis, plus a red wolf fish. Will get some pics up soon, once i suss out how lol.
there is also a extramly heavly planted tank with congo tetras, clown loaches, rummy nose tetras as well as a bunch of cory cats and guppies/mollies/platties
