Fish for your aquarium

In this section of our online store you will find ornamental fish that don't really fit anywhere else, but are nevertheless very fascinating aquarium inhabitants. Some of them are even suitable for the garden pond - the Rainbow Minnow is such a candidate, which excels in the cold water aquarium as well as in the pond. The males have a very pretty mating dress with blue glittering scales like in a picture book! The sociable fringe lippers, on the other hand, are tropical fish that should be kept in an aquarium. They are suitable as algae eaters for large tanks. Very similar to the Green Fringe Lipper is the Firetail, also a good algae eater. It is also a social group fish and should never be kept alone. A group of these great colored fish needs a correspondingly large aquarium. For a very large South America aquarium, the Night Black Whiteface Knifefish is a very interesting option.

Other fish for the aquarium

With a fish aquarium, which is suitably furnished, with roots and stones and also with plants has a beautiful structure, you basically do everything right in the apartment. It is a resting point and offers the eye a green recreation point. Here you buy fish in the online store, which do not fit into any other group and are therefore listed in this category.

Rainbow minnow

The Rainbow Minnow, which you can buy at Garnelio in the store, is suitable both for the garden pond and for the planted cold-water aquarium. They should not be kept permanently above 22 degrees, because they come from a temperate climate and therefore do not tolerate high temperatures all the time. The peaceful group fishes fascinate particularly by the courtship coloration of the males, which then get turquoise-blue glittering scales. The peaceful, very social fish play with each other and should therefore never be kept alone. As omnivores you can feed them perfectly with our high quality NatureHolic main feed. Breeding in the aquarium is possible and also relatively easy. The spawning tank should be lined with thick pebbles, between which the eggs will fall after spawning. This will prevent the parent fish from immediately predating the spawn. For breeding, the parent fish are caught out so that they do not feed the larvae as well.

Fringe lipper

Fringe lippers - including such well-known representatives as the intense red-black firetail, the green fringe lipper with its bright red fins or its golden form have a very bad reputation in aquaristics as poor aggressors, which also attack other aquarium fish and are very antisocial - however, this is due to the fact that the beautiful ornamental fish are then kept totally wrong. In single keeping the Fringe Lipper actually develops formal behavioral disorders and at some point attacks everything that moves. However, if kept in a well structured aquarium with a suitable size from 120 cm edge length in a group of 5-10 animals, the fish can live out their aggressions on their conspecifics, form a pecking order and show their natural behaviors. Then they are beautiful and relatively peaceful algae eaters, which are useful in the aquarium and only pleasantly noticeable. Breeding of the cave breeder is possible, but rather difficult. Fringe lippers are omnivores with a clear emphasis on growth food. Besides NatureHolic main feed NatureHolic catfish sticks and algae plates are especially suitable, but also frozen food and live food

Knifefish

The night-black Whiteface Knifefish from South America are great fish for a South America aquarium with rather large by-fish from 180 cm edge length. In well planted tanks a small group of the Black Ghost can be kept perfectly. The swimming style of the knifefish is very unusual, they are extremely maneuverable and can not only swim forward, but even sideways, upside down, upside down and backwards. This makes them agile and very skilled hunters, which is why they should not be socialized with smaller fish or invertebrates. However, knifefish get along very well with large tetras, for example. They need rather soft water. In the aquarium, uncontrolled reproduction does not occur. In the age knife fish become territorial and incompatible and should then be kept alone in any case. This is already possible from a size of 15 cm. Knifefish become trusting and know their owner. They like to eat large live food and can also be accustomed to frozen food. They are also known as Manatee Knifefish, Black Ghost Knifefish, American Knifefish or American Whiteface Knifefish.

Conclusion

Properly kept fish feel comfortable in the aquarium, even algae eaters with a rather bad reputation such as the Fringe Lipper then get along well and bring joy to their owner. Here in our online store you can buy fish for your aquarium - well-known species and rare rarities, oddities like the knife fish and useful algae eaters for large tanks. Get a green piece of nature in your living room - complete with beautiful, healthy aquatic plants and, of course, with colorful fish that play in the plants, that courtship, chase each other, that you know as food dispensers and that also sometimes argue and then get along again. Have fun with your aquarium!
