Some pictures of my fishy friends.
Angelfish:
A baby Albino Bristlenose (Ancistrus):
Adult Male Brown Bristlenose:
Corydoras Aeneus Fry (apologies for the quality, these guys are TINY):
Male Powder/Neon blue Dwarf Gourami:
Male German Blue Ram (his name is Boris ;):
Danio and GBR:
Glass Catfish (hard to photograph!):
Black Ghost Knifefish (his name is Kershaw ;):
Neon Tetras:
This guy is no longer with us. A Siamese Fighter (Betta) that was given to me in a very sad state. He was kept in one of those awful little Fighter tanks before I took him home, named him 'Nitro' and nursed him back to health in a planted 100L. I then made the mistake of moving him, and he died that night. I don't really know why, but I suspect Kershaw):
Platies and their fry (love the one where the platies appear to be watching the guppy dance):
Rummynose Tetras:
Juvenile Silver (Bala) Sharks:

The difference between 'pet fish' and 'lifestyle choice'.
Or, a little tour of my house.
Things have changed a bit around here since I last wrote. I have been enjoying a severe case of Multiple Tank Syndrome (MTS) that doesn't look to be getting better any time soon.
Here is where I am typing to you from, with my favourite fishy resource proudly displayed on-screen:
Here is a collection of treatments and medicines:
A collection of foods:
My Male Guppy tank (female culls go in here as the stores like them pre-hit):
Female Gups:
A breeding tank on my indoor kitchen 'windowsill':
Quarantine/fry tank:
220L Softwater Community:
African Cichlids (I am getting out of these, too aggressive for me. My Goldies will be moving into the tank):
My Goldfish (this tank will be another breeding tank when they goldies move):
My husband's planted community tank (right after a massive plant-trim, believe it or not!):
Even my 8-year-old son has a tank in his room (he chose this as his last birthday gift, hmm... I am a bad influence!):
I have set up another tank on the kitchen sill since taking these pictures, so that means I am now up to 12 tanks in my house!
