Overlord Dwarf Cichlid
The Overlord dwarf cichlid (Apistogramma sp. aff. nijsseni) is a striking, metallic silver-blue South American dwarf cichlid named for its fierce, territorial temperament. Relatively easy to keep and breed, it needs soft acidic water, a planted tank with caves, and — because of its aggression — is best kept without other dwarf cichlids.
Dusky Butterflyfish
The Dusky Butterflyfish (Chaetodon flavirostris), traded as the black butterflyfish or 'Australian emperor butterfly', is a dark-bodied, yellow-finned marine butterflyfish from Australia. Moderately difficult — its specialized, largely corallivorous diet makes acclimation the real challenge. Needs a 300 L+ reef-aware setup.
Altum Angelfish (Pterophyllum altum)
The altum angelfish (Pterophyllum altum) is found in the Orinoco basin of Venezuela and Colombia. Not very hard to keep, but it needs oxygen-rich, roomy water and must not be frightened. Because it is hard to tame, artificial breeding is difficult and it should not be mixed with small fish.
Siamese Fighting Fish (Betta splendens)
The Siamese fighting fish (Betta splendens), native to Thailand, is one of the easier ornamental fish to keep, but two adult males will fight on sight—never keep more than one mature male per tank. Its vivid form and color make it a favorite among aquarists.
Halfmoon Betta
The Halfmoon Betta is a tail-form of Betta splendens whose caudal fin spreads to a full 180 degrees (or more, in the prized Over-Halfmoon type), resembling a half moon. A labyrinth fish that breathes air at the surface, it is easy to keep but must be housed alone or with peaceful tankmates because males fight.
Lionfish
Lionfish (Pterois), also called turkeyfish, is a popular ornamental marine fish with a distinctive fan-like pectoral fin. Its dorsal-fin spines are venomous—a sting causes severe pain and, in serious cases, fainting.
Angelfish
Angelfish (often called the freshwater angelfish or 'swallow fish') is a tall, disc-shaped cichlid whose graceful, sail-like swimming made it almost synonymous with the tropical aquarium hobby.
