The fish do have names… the pleco is Gandalf, the nerite snails are Bard, Smaug, and Olive Nerite. The tetras aren’t named. There were 13 cories, Fili, Kili, Balin, Dwalin, Ori, Nori, Dori, Bifur, Bofur, Bombar, Thorin, Oin, and Gloin. After the dwarves from the Hobbit. I’m down to 10 after a family member messed up my tank’s cycle, Fili, Kili, and Thorin unfortunately didn’t make it
