This is not simply limited to freshwater fish either. If you have an aquarium with water in it, we want to see it.
Enjoy!

Here is our request to show off your fish and your tanks. Pictures of your entire tank or individual pictures of your fish are welcome. Give us as much information or as little as you would like. Cute personalities, specific needs, or general information about a species is always welcome. Comments and questions can be posted here also but try and keep on topic or simply start a new post.

I'll start!
2 1/2 gallon betta tank. I haven't got the plant set up yet! ![]() BTW, little tip for anyone not realizing it: If your tank has a light, then turn the flash on the camera off. Otherwise, colours will be washed out. |

Okay... here are my tanks... all betta tanks. I took pL's advice and took the pictures without the flash... my fishies are blurry b/c they're always on the move and without the flash... it seems to not catch them in the moment. And... you can't see the brown & green algae with this type of lighting!
Here goes... Max's 5 gallon tank: ![]() Ruby's 3 gallon tank: ![]() Rosie's 3 gallon tank: ![]() Jelly Bean's 5 gallon tank: ![]() Casper's 5 gallon tank: ![]() In the pictures... they look a little crowded... it doesn't show the depth of the tanks... they all have plenty of swimming room.

pL, Kiri is just a sweetie and I am thrilled to see pictures of him.
Michele, all your bettas and tanks are simply beautiful and your wisteria is really growing great guns. Keeb, we all love Oscar. Here are a couple of my favorite pics of my tanks and fish. One of the 55g's with lambchop rasboras, an angel fish, a couple platies, and otos ![]() A male cockatoo apisto. They are South American cichlids with the males reaching about 3 inches. ![]() A male german blue ram, IMO, one of the pretties tropical fish there is. ![]() Cain, the biggest show off in my house ![]() Abel, who is just the sweetest and mocks Cain and all his antics. ![]() And last picture for now. Poppy, my boy African Dwarf frog falling over at the sight of Olive Oil.

Such a treat to see these beautiful tanks and the happy occupants of them! I agree with everything Shelley said and Shelley, I'm so jealous of that planted 55g!
I should have waited cause I'm changing the decor a bit. Removed the stone and put a nice log which I'm going to attach the Java fern to.

Here are two adolescent jewels. Note that one already shows the mating red colours. They are from a later spawn of one of our jewel pairs (like the one in the photo above). Note the size difference (one is older) and also the tiny size compared to the pleco which is very big. Also, the last picture shows a mature female on the left. (Please excuse the pleco poopage garlands.)

Re: Show-Off Time! | ||

The adolescent jewel is not really too small . . . the (female) pleco is just HUGE!
Here is a picture of the entire 210 gal tank. It is quite difficult to fit the tank all in one shot because it is so long. Many of the jewels are hiding but you can see some of the faces of the smaller female jewels sticking out of the clay pot caves. The males jewels are much larger. BTW, sorry for the algae in the tank . . . we just consider the algae on the clay pots to be part of the decoration scheme since the plecos turn up their noses at that sort of algae. ![]() t *edited to add picture |

Oo nice tank. I love those coins in the tank as well. Did you just use any coins? Or did you actually buy decoration ones? asti |
