Aquarium Fish Breeds
With over 300 different color and body type combinations to choose from, goldfish are far from "plain old" anymore!
Betta (Siamese Fighting Fish)
One of the most popular species of fish available today. Unfortunately, the Betta vase is killing many of these wonderful fish unnecessarily and making many people think that keeping fish is harder than it really is...
Oscar
Quite possibly the fish with the most personality. These very intelligent fish can make great pets, but they don't tend to get along well with other fish...
Ornamental Snails
Fascinating critters to keep in your fish tank, but beware that they can be devastating to live plants, and do not expect them to clean up for you, as they tend to be very messy...
Dragonfish
A North and Central American brackish water fish that can grow to two feet long and may (though rarely) hunt smaller fish.
The Elephant Nose Fish
The elephant nose fish is a very interesting African fish. They are capable of communicating with each other by sending electrical pulses through the water. They need a soft substrate so that they can dig in it without tearing up their proboscis. This is their natural way of foraging for food. They like soft, slightly acid water, and temperatures in the mid 70's (F). They will grow to be about 10 inches long and need a good variety of high protein foods, preferring live invertebrates. They are generally a peaceful fish and like plenty of cover and tank mates who aren't too active.
