For some time now, my readers have been asking me for a photo of my fish tank. For those readers who are curious about my fish tank, here are some photos of my fishes. I am an amateur photographer, so forgive me if the photos are not so clear.
My fish tank is about 36" and contains:
- 2 x Angelfish (small)
- 4 x Swordtails (two males and two females)
- 10 x Neon Tetra
- 2 x Honey Gourami
- 5 x Guppies
- 4 x Danios (2 leopard Danio and 2 zebra Danio)
- 2 x Discus Fish
- 5 x Rummynose Tetra
- 3 x Golden Algae Eater
- 2 x Black Widow Tetra
- 5 x Glowlight tetra
- 2 x Penguin Tetra
- 2 x Cherry Barb
- 2 x Khuli loach
- 2 x SAE Flying fox
And more coming soon...
These fishes are all peaceful and small, so there are no conflicts in the tank. The biggest fish is about 4 cm (swordtail). The Guppies, Rummynose, Swordtails, Danios and the Black Widow Tetra are always the first few to eat, and happily wait for food at a corner when they see me coming. The discus and angelfish are more shy and take longer to eat. To solve the problem, I usually feed them a mixture of blood worms, tubifex (sinks to the bottom where the angel and discus fish will eat), micrograms food (for the smaller fish such as neon tetra), and floating food (for the first eaters).

Help - how do i feed frys. To our amazement and fascination my sons two angelfish laid eggs that have begun to hatch into these tiny little wiggly things still attached to the rock. We just bought 2 angelfish 2 weeks ago and put them in a small unfiltered but clean kept tank in our home. We wrent expecting this and now I dont know how to feed them. I removed them to another small tank for now, but where I live I doubt that I will find any other source of food then fish flakes. I doubt I will find shrimp brine as advised to feed the fry although I am going to try at our very limited pet stores. What can I feed them if I dont find the brine? We want to try to raise them healthy. Help

Great pictures, I like your aquarium. Looks like a fun setup to have
i just bought a new silver arowana putting it in a 15 galloon aquarium with a 2 in 1 filter/oxygen. it is around 4 inches in length and m feeding it with a millworm, what other live foods can i give? is it a requirement to the filter and oxygen to be 24 hours?
