Everything you ever wanted to know about Fresh Water aquariums and fish

I would probably say German Blue rams because they have their own “personality” unlike other fish where they just kind go along with the school. I just wish I had a bigger tank to keeep these fish.

I would have to say the freshwater angelfish. I have 6 in my 50 gallon community and they have been with me since 2002 and are still going strong. They have personallity plus and are very curious of everything.

I would say any type of gouramis. They are easy to take care of, they build their bubble nests and breed without any special conditions. But the males tear the female fins and they need to eat a lot.

Yo-yo Loaches hands down! They have such great personalities, and they are CONSTANTLY moving. They enjoy rooting through the substrate and playing “tag” (no nipping involved) with each other and weaving in and out of plants. I wouldn’t suggest them for anything less than a 20 gallon long tank (they grow up to 5 inches). For a 10 gallon though, you could try a small group (3-4) of Dwarf Chain Loaches. They are very similar to Yo-yo Loaches but only reach about 3 inches. Email me if you have any questions.

it is a fish better for large tanks, and to be kept alone, but i have a tiger oscar, and they have the most characteristics out of any fish i have ever seen. my oscar let’s me stroke him, hand feed him, hit’s ping pong balls with his mouth, and enjoys uprooting expensive plants i get to make his tank look pretty.

Rummy Nose tetra.
They’re cool looking, they’re slender and fast; they are also great schoolers. Get a shaol of them and watch them stick together like glue. Awesome effects.

A Triops. Triops arnt sold alive there sold as dried eggs. All you have to do is keep the temprature correct and feed. Keeping one may get you more. Some times a triops doesnt need a mate to lay fertile eggs. you just dry outthe eggs then after 2 weeks of drying you should have good hatching rates. Its easy to start new generations. They grow to 2 inches at 90 days old then they die. when there born therel about .5 mm long.

Its not a fish but they get a long with fish and that is African dwarf frogs. They are so fun to watch. There very active. They swim up to top for air and sometimes they get to the top and instead of going right back down they float from one side of the tank to the other. or they just float to the bottom instead of swimming to the bottom. I would suggest these to everyone. I also like them because they get a long with a lot of different fish. I put a couple links below about these frogs.
