My Little Aquarium in the window. Please tell mii what you think! ^+^

Looks good what's the stock

 

[Ellie029]

Well I'm actually not sure... I'm a newbie.

 

[rockyofhockey]

What's the tank size because I do see a angel fish and that's not compatible at all.

 

[cgthebeast]

Alright then, that's fine, but what size tank is it. Like how many gallons

 

[Haileyjade]

What kind of fish do you have in the tank?

I like your set up!

 

[cgthebeast]

As for stock, I see an angelfish, guppies, a type of skirt tetra, and I think a swordtail. And the bottom large one is my best guess of a carp species.

 

[rockyofhockey]

I see a Cory need to be in groups of 4 a angel fish, platies, guppy, and skirted tetra. And I'm not sure but is that a red tail shark behind the plant there

Is everything pictured all that is in the tank? If so it looks like 2 swordtails (female), 2 guppies, 1 angelfish, that blue one looks like some sort of tetra (never kept tetras so not very good with them). My only concern though is that fish in the front (the big yellow one) a koi? If so you might want to relocate/rehome him to a pond because he will get HUGE. Good luck though the decorations are very pretty.

EDIT: Sorry did not see all these replies before I posted this.

No it looks a Cory I think maybe I'm wrong and angel fish shouldn't belong there. Swordtails get big too

 

[kevan07]

which one are you saying is a cory?

 

[rockyofhockey]

The orange one it has all the traits for one the two little fins in the front and also the shape

 

[Haileyjade]

I agree that the orange one up front appears to be some kind of goldfish/koi....definitely not a cory.

 

[cgthebeast]

Swords get 4-5 in, have decent bioloads, angels get at least 8in across, and need more room, Cory's and tetras both need a min school of 5

I agree, it's eyes are to with and the mouth is more up towards the front with a lack of barbs also

 

[rockyofhockey]

Idk it just doesn't have the body shape/fins for koi. It's fins r really tiny

 

[Haileyjade]

Yes, the mouth is not positioned correctly for a cory, and cories have barbels. The picture is not clear, but the barbels would e predominant.

It could be a river carp, I'm sure it's in the carp family though

I had a koi in a 10 gallon tank before I knew any different. This looks pretty much the same way mine did when he was little.

Could also be a goldfish but I really think it is a koi based on the shape of the mouth.

Agreed. Plus the color and size is off for any cory that I've ever seen.
