kitten![]() ![]() Fish Guru Meow? Posts: 2266 Kudos: 2194 Votes: 19 Registered: 18-Nov-2003 ![]() | Hmm... let me see what I can do here... Betta Splendens (male and female) Golden Zebra Danios Guppies Corydoras trilineatus Corydoras Agassizii Corydoras panda Black Neon Tetras Otocinclus Rosy (or neon rosy) barb BN plec My eldest fish is Liberty, a betta, and he'll have been with me two years come next month. I've only kept larger tanks (and more fish) for a year and a half. Anyway, that gives me ten species, unless I've missed some. Not terribly easy to keep many species of fish when you've got four tanks (not including betta tanks)... 20 gallon long, 12, 10, 5. I need more (bigger!) tanks!

Calilasseia![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() *Ultimate Fish Guru* Panda Funster Posts: 5496 Kudos: 2828 Votes: 731 Registered: 10-Feb-2003 ![]() | The ones I can remember are, from my teenage years upwards: Clown Loach Chromobotia macracantha Kuhlii Loach Pangio kuhlii Gold Platy Xiphophorus maculatus (first fish I bred) Glowlight Tetra Hemigrammus gracilis Silver Tip Tetra Hemigrammus nanus Nannostomus trifasciatus Angel Fish Pterophyllum scalare (spawned) Flying Fox Epalzeorhynchus kallopterus Bronze Cory Corydoras aeneus Kribensis Pelvicachromis pulcher Anomalochromis thomasi Skunk Loach Botia horae Zebra Danio Danio rerio (first eggla White Cloud Mountain Minnow Tanichthys albonubes Sarasa Comet Goldfish Carassius auratus Chinese Algae Eater Gyrinocheilus aymonieri Since the startup of my Panda Fun Palace™ in 1994, I have had these (ones marked with a * are current inmates): Venezuelan Ram Papiliochromis ramirezi Siamese Algae Eater Crossocheilus siamensis Cardinal Tetra Paracheirodon axelrodi * Otocinclus mariae * Three-Lined Corydoras Corydoras trilineatus Bolivian Corydoras Corydoras bolivianus Pygmy Corydoras Corydoras pygmaeus Dainty Corydoras Corydoras habrosus Chaetostoma wuchereri Lemon Tetra Hyphessobrycon pulchripinnis * Rummy Nosed Tetra Hemigrammus bleheri Panda Corydoras Corydoras panda * Beckford's Pencil Fish Nannostomus beckfordi * This list may be incomplete. These are the ones I can remember off the top of my head for the moment. However, I've also helped out with a couple of older members of my local aquarist society when infirmity started to compromise their ability to perform labour-intensive chores, and through them I've added probably another 50-100 species to the list, including a brace of African Cichlids, various big Synodontis catfishes, the infamous Acanthicus adonis plec (whopping 3 foot specimen at that!) that the late Ted Derrick used to have, and it was through him that I was introduced to such delights as Barbus gelius (a real rarity among the Cyprinids) and Nannacara anomala. He was the person who also introduced me to my first Panda Catfish, and it was because of how delightful his Pandas were that I resolved to get some. I've never looked back since doing so ![]() |

I shudder to think what will happen when Toirtis or ACIDRAIN list all of theirs, though. I'm thinking of printing them out and reading them on my flight down to Florida next month; that should take up the flight and most of the wait for the luggage.
