Hi all,
I'm sure you get these kinds of posts a lot but, so forgive me, but I'm a newbie that acquired a freshwater tank last night and I want to know which species I have!
Picture is attached. Previous owners were moving and did not want to take the tank, they said they found everything at the local Petco. They are freshwater in a 10 gallon tank.
My GUESS is that I have a Platy (X. maculatus perhaps?) but I am unsure of the other two, I don't think they are Discus (Symphysodon sp.) because I don't think the previous owners spent that much but I could be wrong. The dorsal fins also don't look exactly right for Discus, from what I can tell. Anyway, I'd love the help from someone who knows better!
Thanks in advance for your help!
