look like aocuple fo good finds, well i not expert enough to have a clue if info is accurate but looks good if it is
 
i dunno about that first site. Its info seems to be a little vauge and some of it not really accurate.

For example, it says a giant gourami can only get to be 4.5 inches?

Good site, lots of fish, but i wouldnt use it as a primary reference.
 
I don't really like the first site, a lot of the information is incorrect. It does have a lot of profiles though!
Here's an example of what I mean:
How Many?  About one per 5 gallon is a good rule of thumb.  That will give them some growing room

10 Gal 2-3  small goldfish
20 Gal 4-5  small goldfish
30 Gal  6-8  small goldfish,  or      4 medium size fish
55 Gal 8-10 small goldfish, or  5-8 medium size fish
75 Gal 10-12 small goldfish, or  6-8 medium size fish 
Thats the stocking guide for goldfish...eeek! I goldfish shouldn't even be kept in a 10 gallon, let alone 3 of them (even if they are small, because they still produce a lot of waste)

It also says that koi only grow to 12" long...what planet are they from?!?
 
Second one does not have correct information, for example, it siad that green spotted puffers can be kept with figure 8 and dwarf puffers, however, dwarf puffers are fresh and the other two are brackish... O_O

The Dwarf Puffer should be kept in groups of any amount and is compatible with Figure 8, Green Spotted Puffer,

That was for dwarf puffers, they may enjoy company as little ones, but as they get older there's only room for one fish in the tank...

The Green Spotted Puffer should be kept in groups of any amount and is compatible with Dwarf Puffer, Figure 8,

The Chinese Algae Eater should be kept in groups of any amount. The Chinese Algae Eater is compatible with the Clown Loach.

They have really bad information...
 
Elmers aquarium:
I don't like this info about bichirs...

Way to general, and they don't "attack" other fish, they eat them :p I wouldn't trust that place if you got a 'bichar' :lol:


Oops, I missed this, the site says that swordtails are good tankmates for bichirs :rofl:

Uh oh, tims site sys that Salvini cichlids (Very aggressive) are compatible with firemouths :crazy: Poor firemouths :sad:
 
from what I seen, the fist site has bad info.

Like

Iridescent Shark

General: A quick moving non-aggressive fish; mixes well in a wide variety of community tanks and is a good choice for beginners. Feeds from middle water layers; quick grower; looks good in groups. This fish is a member of the catfish family (Schibeidae) from Asia.


it also say 12 Inch, correct me if i'm wron, but I thought they got to about 52 Inch's, and to be honest I most certainly would'nt recomenned them as Beginer fish.

If I get time I'll proberly go through all the fish, and pick out all the mistacks. :lol:
