Most beautiful - Aquarium Advice

JDogg · 06-18-2006, 11:06 AM

In your opinion what is the most beautiful species/variety of freshwater fish in the hobby (or even not available in the hobby

)?

to me it has to be German Blue Rams!

Discus - tho I don't keep them

I would have to say black ghost knives, though their beauty isn't the bright colors/shiny scales kind of beauty. Rather, their eerie looks combined with their graceful way of moving around the tank makes them breathtaking in a way an angel or discus could never be. But then, I am also biased. :P My BGK is the apple of my eye.

Veiltail comets and ryukins, totally biased. What's not to love.

i like my dicsus.

i have other favorites. and ithink they are all cool and beautiful in there own way.
but i think just the intense color and lines on the discus are awsome.
the way they look in certain lights like one they will have white lines, then blue or green.
its soo coool
lol

Well, I can't say GBR's because it was already taken. So I guess I'll have to say GBR's in pearling plants.

My discus are my favorites, followed by the GBR's the my angels. But I love all my fish and think they are all beautiful.

Isn't she beautiful? She's getting ready to drop her 3rd set of eggs. She's been laying every 3-4 weeks.

This is her with her baby brother that I got at the same time.

Black Ghost Knives followed by pearl colored angels, lastly lionfish which is tied for third with eels ^^ I like 'em exotic or just plain different.

Lwb, what exactly do you do with all those fry and youngins? Do you just supply them to any buyers locally? It just seems like you are having such success with your GBR's that you should have millions of those little babies around ^^
