Not brightly coloured fish but an intresting body shape

half beaks or goodieds

I wont get any kind of goodeids for the tropical community tank as most of goodeids dont well in heated tank for longer periods. Some are aggressive and fin nipping. So avoid these goodeid as they are better off in species tank or with suitable tankmates.
 
i've got Limia Nigrofasciata they are pretty good fish and verty lively and friendly
its best not to keep them with guppies or mollies as all 3 will hybridise
i keep mine with platys and minnows

when i first got them
