My fish tanks


After some fish talk on the forum I thought I would share some photos of my fish over the years.

Re: My fish tanks


Thats strange I get the same thing using a different browser, might be because they are on picasa site. I'll fix it now.

Re: My fish tanks


I'll have to upload them to a different server, picasa doesn't seem to like me linking to images in my album.

That's a stunning Angel fish! I love them; used to have one in a mixed tank; he grew quite large and bullied the other fish terribly. Apparently he committed suicide, I came home from work one night and he was lying on the floor quite dead!

Yeah when they get big they get very bullish.

Congo Fan shrimp




Also going strong in my Amazon tank, not from the Amazon tho hehe


Neolamprologus multifasciatus is a tiny shell-dwelling cichlid native to Lake Tanganyika



I have been breeding them for years now, I have a good colony of about 40 strong. Once had more but sold a few Very cool fish, recommended for small tanks.

Re: My fish tanks


Thanks for posting those; lovely and interesting assortment of pics. Never saw that catfish before; sort of ugly but different! We had blue gouramis when I was a child, really liked them.

Re: My fish tanks


Great pics Matt. I had a marine tank about 25 years ago. Loved it but it was just too hard to maintain as at that time I was away from home a lot.

Now I have goldfish, white cloud minnows and couple of algae eaters.

Keep them at 80 degrees and have thought about making it more of a community tank. Don't know what to get though.

Your catfish is amazing - how big is it? What else have you in the 'amazon' tank?
