I'd have to say that my favorite creature in the tank is my 2" ghost shrimp, and my favorite fish is my 5" gold gourami.

My favorite would have to be my Pleco. Unfortunatly he's getting to big for his current tank.

But I'm setting up a new, larger tank with Plecos in mind!

My ABSOLUTELY most FAVOURITE fish in the world are the Angel Fishes!!

They are Wonderful and they are just like the discus fishes

Pretty easy to raise too just the young are a little bit hard to take care of. I tried so many times.. but some are a success and some aren't.

I gave a whole bunch of Discus fishes to my friends and the pet store since I figured out how to take care of the discus..

So the pet store gave me a lot of in store credits about 8,000 ¥ AKA roughly 80 dollars if the currency is 100 yen for the CAD dollar...

But I used the money for a lot of plants and so on

I used to breed angelfish, and they are still my favorites. I love discus, oscars, platies, and just about any other finned creature. How can you not like cory cats, kuhli loaches or Rafael cats, too? Anyway, I'd have to say angels are, and probably always will be, my favs.

Start hatching baby brine shrimp, feed small amounts several times a day, keep the tank super clean. Start them in a small tank so the food is close by and won't scatter. As they get bigger, put them in larger tanks. Water changes every day will maximize growth and health. That's a paragraph, and whole books have been written on the subject, but it's a start.

You can also get bbs already hatched and by the pound... Sure beats hatching them yourself!
