Featured Fish
We are pleased to include a bit more information on these featured fish. We hope you'll find it informative and we encourage you to come in and see our fish for yourself.
Sparkling Gouramis (Trichopsis pumilus)
Delicate looking, but quite hardy and peaceful fish with lots of beautiful blue, green, and red sparkles on fins and body. Likes a well planted tank and company of its own kind. Since it only grows to 1”, or so, it is ideal for smaller tanks. Feed Spectrum small pellets for vitamins and bright colors.
Habrosus Dwarf Cory (Corydoras habrosus)
With their stubby noses, these are probably the cutest of the dwarf-type corys. They are definitely the hardest to find. Get them while they are still in season. Happiest in larger groups - the more the merrier (and the busier and hungrier) they are. For best health and colors: feed new Spectrum H2O stable wafers to these bottom feeders.
Honey Gourami (Colisa Sota)
This is the original peaceful, honey dwarf gourami. They are almost full grown now. Being a small fish, they feel safest and are their most colorful in a small school, amidst lots of plants. A hardy fish, their small size is ideal for the smaller aquarium. Spectrum is their preferred food and will keep them most colorful and healthy.
Ember Tetra (Neocaridina sp.)
Like the red embers of a coal fire, these red-glowing little beauties show their color best against a dark background with green plants as a contrast. Very hardy community tetra. Peaceful and happiest in large schools. Grows to 1.25 inches. Feed crushed Spectrum, natural, color maintaining pellets for best health and color
