Fish!

We got fish! There are seven. 3 glass catfish, 2 mollies, 1 bumblebee platy, and a loach. 2 catfish hide and the third one tries to get them to come out. you can see right through their skin! you can see the stomach,the bones, and all the other organs! their body parts are nothing like ours. one of the mollies is a lyre tail with an orange body and black stripes, and the other one is white with black spots.the bumble bee platy is just like it's name, yellow and black. the loach is a strange fish. I cannot really describe them so you should check out the picture and the link below.
click for LOACHES!NOW!my loach will be in the serpentine section...
he is the long yellow thing in front of the short grass...
I feed them frozen brine shrimp and tropical fish flakes.the mollies give birth to live young and then eat them so when breeding put the babies in another tank.these fish enjoy lots of plants and cool hiding spots.they need a temperature of around 78 degrees Fahrenheit.as long as you give them a naturalistic tank setting with hiding spots , a pinch of food each day, and a tank cleaning each month, you will have happy, healthy fish!
