I have two tanks

Tank 1 - Freshwater schooling fish. My favorite is my neon tetras.

Hmmmmm, favorites.

I do miss my angel fish. Such funny clowns. My favs in the current tank have to be my upside down cats.

this week, my favorite has to be the new Rose Fin, but, overall? We have a black Molly that is the "boss" of the tank. Very entertaining to watch

i like discus fish most..I am 17 years into this hobby.Now from last 8 years I just concentrate about discus keeping. Now you may say that I am a discus keeper. I have 2 4 feet aquarium at present. That tank is a planted discus community aquarium with 6 discus (2 blue diamond, 1 cobalt blue, 1 spider, 1 red Marlboro, 1 red pigion discus) along with 2 clown loaches and 2 black ghost knife.The other contains 12 cichlids. Apart from these I am also a professional discus breeder.

Wow, that's a beautiful fish. I was considering a discus only tank at one point but didn't know how to deal with plants that liked the warm water. =(

thank you all..you know that discus live in 30 deg temp. so in this high temp most of the plants do not survive.the plants live in this temp is anubias sp,echinodorous sp,java moss,anacharis sp....the best way to survive those plants is keep your tank temp slowly high from 28 deg temp.like you keep 28 deg temp for 15 days then keep 28.5 deg for next 15 days like that.and the conventional rule say us that provide 2-3 watt per gallon of tank.also provide co2 diffuser and also give plant fertilizer....

I love that picture of him too, because he's eating. He likes to let my peppermint shrimp catch the food and then bully him into giving it to him. Sucks for the pepp, but it's fun to watch.

Right now my favorite has to be a scarlet badis of mine. It has a black patch on its side (which isn't the normal coloring for a scarlet badis) and he is super inquisitive. The fact that he is only about 1/2 inch long doesn't hurt

Favorite fish ? It's a toss up, but for now I'd say it's this guy (see pic below). Unfortunately I don't have him anymore cause I had to re-home my fish because I moved.
