The Jardinii Arowana, a species of freshwater fish, can live for ten to twenty years in captivity, but in the wild, they can reach up to 50 years depending on the species. They can grow up to two feet in captivity, whereas in their natural habitat, they can grow up to three feet, reaching their maximum growth point in about a year and a half. A high-protein diet is necessary for their growth, with a rate of approximately two inches per month. Raising a Jardini Arowana requires preparation and commitment, as they are a long-term companion that can reach the size of a toddler.
Most fish that feed on insects must rely on them falling, landing or being blown into the water. The archerfish has an adaptation that enables it to shoot and catch insect prey. In fact, they are known as “spitting sharpshooters,” able to shoot down insects up to five feet (1.5 m) above the water by spitting a jet of water from its mouth. This is amazing given the index of refraction compensation necessary for accurately aiming through the water-air interface
They are called ropefish or Reedfish and they are from West and Central Africa. They can survive in low oxygen level water since they have a pair of lungs as well as gills.
They can reach to 1′ size maximum. The Ropefishes are peaceful fishes and they enjoy other ropefish company. They move like snake at the bottom of the tank, you should equip the aquarium with gravel or sand substrate. You can feed them with live food such as insect larva, bloodwarms etc.

This is the TRUE albino clown knifefish. It has yellowish white body with RED eyes. The normal coloring of the Clown Knifefish is a silvery gray characterized by a variable pattern of large spots above the base of the anal fin. Yet sometimes they may have no spots at all, and sometimes they may have two rows of smaller spots. Other common names it is known by are Clown Featherback Fish, Spotted Knifefish, Spotted Featherback Fish, and Clown Knife.
The Clown Knifefish is a very popular knifefish. This is partly because of its common availability and being relatively inexpensive. But its also a favorite because it is extremely attractive. They usually have a pattern of large spots, but this can be quite variable and it seems that no two Clown Knifefish are exactly alike.
The Clown Knife has the typical knifefish body shape, flat and elongated with an arched back. Its anal fin and caudal fin (tail fin) are joined, giving it a long continuous fin along the underside. This fin undulates, allowing it to move either forwards or back wards, making it a very graceful swimmer.
They are generally peaceful and will do well with other fish that are not particularly aggressive and that are too large to fit into its mouth.

A distinctively marked large schooling characin, the Black Bar Myleus or Black Bar Silver Dollar makes an impressive display fish in a tank of large cichlids or predatory fish or as a centerpiece fish on their own. With their distinctive vertical black bar, elongated dorsal and anal fins, and combination of silver, red, and iridescent blue coloration, mature specimens are spectacular fish and will display the best behavior and color in a group of 5 or more
Tiger Shovelnose Catfish (Pseudoplatystoma Fasciatum) are spectacular catfish with their amazing tiger like stripes and amazing personalities. Can easily be taught to eat right out of your hand. We feed ours mainly on a floating pellet food, making them very easy to acclimate into you aquarium.
Tiger Shovel Nose catfish are a great pet for any monster fish keeper. The Tiger Shovelnose Catfish, which is otherwise called the Tiger Catfish, is from the streams and tributaries of South America. The body of this feline is long and slim and has an excellent silver hue. Dark stripes and spots spread the whole body, giving this fish a tiger-like appearance. The mouth is decorated with long stubbles, and is long and level fit as a fiddle.
With distinctive golden coloration and a much smaller adult size than other peacock bass of the genus Cichla, the Kelberi is among the most popular of these large predatory cichlids in the aquarium hobby. Originating from the rivers of Southeastern Brazil (including the Tocantins), these fish are popular food and sport fish in their native range. The so-called ‘Spider’ variant is a selectively bred color form developed in Asia which can be distinguished by their intricate, spiderweb-like pattern of spots and lines as adults. Like all peacock bass, Cichla kelberi requires a very large aquarium and should only be kept by experienced hobbyists. They are powerful predators, and will eat any fish that can fit in their large mouths, so tankmates should be chosen with care.
The Fire Eel is known from sluggish waters including inundated floodplains and the slower-moving reaches of rivers. Here, this nocturnal bottom-dweller stays partially buried in the substrate during the day, emerging at night to feed on benthic insect larvae, small fish, worms, and some plant material. The Fire Eel makes a great addition to the peaceful fish community where there are no small fish present. The aquarium should be spacious and furnished with a soft sand substrate so that these diggers can wallow and bury themselves. Provide plenty of hiding places amongst plant thickets, bogwood, smooth rocky caves, PVC pipes and so on.
