I know there was a topic like this about a month ago, but i was wondering which families of fish are favs with people....personally i would have to go with tetras, i lve the way they shoal and there personalitys.

Thanks, Tetra-man2

barbs, although they are the only fish in my first tank (sept my cory) but in my new tank im planing to have quite a few

 

[ajbettle]

cool, i like barbs to, especially tiger barbs..but i cant have them!

 

[altselgreen]

Thats a hard one. I love Tetras and livebearers, I love tetras because of their personality and they look great when they shoal. But I love livebearers because of they are cute when they are young and it is pretty easy to breed them. But I went with tetras.

I currently have all tetras. I like guppies, too.

I enjoy the tetras a great deal so it was a close call but I have to go with the Harlequin Rasboras. The way they school and interact with one another is fun to watch.

i went with barbs because i love them lol.

i would of said chiclids but it said no chiclids

 

[ajbettle]

lol! mean rnt i!! hahha

no i was thinking of communtiy fish, even tho u can have dwarf cichlids in communitys, i think.....

 

[wendywc]

I have to say my bristlenose pleco is my favorite. Plecos have always been my favorite.

 

[jayjay]

well you could keep dwarf chicilds yeah and barbs no depending on what one's and what their tank companions are ...... lol so what fish would they be going with as you can't really keep barbs with guppies??? which are common community fish?

 

[pieman]

I'm gonna have to go for a wider range of family type, ODDBALLS B) I love strange looking fish

 

[ajbettle]

lol, just to say i love those piccys of the black widow tetras in ur sig, how big do they grow...i want some!!!

still deciding wat to keep in my 7 gallon,
was thinking either barbs, tetras....with an otto?
which is best? + i wanted to keep a blood red honey gourami, but iv heard ottos suck on flat fish, and there quite flat and big bodied...

 

[lilfishie]

its a tie between tetras and livebearers but because i have more livebearers they get the vote

 

[ajbettle]

lol, i like livebearers as well, but wouldnt keep them as they breed o mch for my liking

shouldn't otto's be kept in 3's and they only suck on fishes bodies when they're starving i think so if you fed your's cucumber or algae wfers you should be ok.

i used to have some black widows aswel mine were about 2 inches.
