I haven’t had much to write about lately, all seems fine with out tank. So I add some pictures I took this morning for your enjoyment.

Rosy tetra

Rosy tetra (Hyphessobrycon rosaceus) is a pretty and calm fish that can live with almost all other fish. It likes to be in a swarm so you need to get six or more of these fellows. At least in Finland they are pretty expensive, but I have liked them very much so far. They like to take and play with the bottom food given to the Clown loaches, which is fun to watch at (although the loaches do not appreciate this :)).

Pristella Tetra and Harlequin fish

These are like your ordinary tetra fish, but I like them much more than neon tetras. They seems more lively and are really beautiful to look at when you have a swarm of ten or more of each. I think some underestimate these small fish, but they are easy to take care of and nice to watch at.
