Hay Guys,

Had to do a full water change and start again but everything is A ok now!!!

So I have a 10 UK Gallon tank with:

1 x Female Molly ( White ) shes fab ( Called Phantom )

1 x Male Swordtail ( Called Ginge )

2 x Female Guppies ( Called Spot & Flame )

1 x Male Guppies ( Called Shaggy )

And 1 little sucker called, Jordan lol due to what he does lmao

But.........I am looking for 1 or poss 2 bright/colourful fish to add to the team!!!

Anyone got any ideas and pics???

45 litre tank. Hmmn.... well you can add a few more fish but not too many. Go with 5 cardinal tetras and 5 glowlight tetras. They are very hard to breed but still possible. I accidently bred neons once but they all got eaten. Make sure you have a good lighting tube as they look really good with good lighting. The glowlight tetra also looks good in partial light imo.

But seeing this is the common live bearer section, endler is the only really vibrant looking one you can get. Other livebearers that might look nice is the humpedback limia (seen em before, some look nice but they might have been dyed which is just plain cruel. The thickness of the needle in proportion is like having an injection using a screwdriver.)

Nice

Yeah can see where your coming from might have a look at some endlers...

Anyone else any ideas?

male endlers look really striking. keep some females and breed them. my lfs used to take them off my friend for pretty large credit

 

[hot_hazza3]

Its a shame as my lps doesn't do credit or anything
But least they get good homes!!! thats all that matters!!!

Not super colorful, but definitely a neat sword- Montezuma

yea, their swords are the same size of their body or longer. Those things are very hard to find. I live in the US (lol closer to their place of origin) and I can't find them either.

 

[hot_hazza3]

Thats one ace fish lol...ill look round see if i can find any lol

meepster - I live in the USA, had no problems finding them. I have two colonies. One are the mottled ivory and the other are the blue/greens. I tried Rascons, but they are much harder to find and raise and I never got mine large enough to spawn before they all died.

I got mine from a memeber of the ALA- you might check their site for availability-
