Got my "gift" tank with an iridescent shark in it 15" long ten years old an totally miserable. Rehomed him to an indoor 500g pond with some schoolmates! I would never get another for obvious reasons - they aren't meant for tanks and are so skittish in those settings, he hurt himself and other fish.
Also agree on all the monsters not meant for home aquariums.
I also don't personally care for oscars or goldfish but that's just me. I'll give almost anything else a whirl if I can provide happy and healthy conditions.
I love longfin albino oscars, maybe one day I'll make room for one.
Yeah,the fact that they dye fish makes me angry-it reduces the fish's lifespan and harms the fish.Oh,and BTW what do you not like about glass/see-through fish?For me,i think the glass catfish are one of the coolest fish in the aquarium hobby.BTW i think the coolest fish is the lungfish.I know a lot of people seem to like them, but for me, I'd never get Ghost shrimp...I just find them totally creepy. I also don't like fish that you can sort of see through. I agree with the general sentiment about not buying fish that were manufactured in a lab or inbred for effect or whatever they do. The thought of that just bums me out.
