I was wondering if you guys have any fish that you would love to have but can't for whatever reason.

Personally, I want to get myself another Red Devil / Midas, but don't have the tank space just now:(

Keeping fish is like a drug even if u start off with o guppy you are always gonna want more.

ive acumalated 6 tanks and busy planning my 7th tank now so u can imagine what kind of maintanance and electricity bills i have.

if i had the space i would love to attempt to breed silver arowana's.

but as arowanas need huge tanks it wont be possible for me.
ive read up a bit on them and they are mouth breeders apperantly the father carries the young in his mouth untill they are big enough to look after themselfs but as one arowna can grow up to a meter in length i will probably never be able to try and breed them.

would be nice though.

God, yes!
I'd love Red Terrors, or at least a female, but no way to find space for another big enough tank.

And a Red Tailed Catfish, I'm only lacking the pool

Basically any medium sized to big American Cichlid species that's around .. oh yes, a Jag! I better stop thinking about it

If I ever win a considerable amount of money on the lottery I would love to have a major Amazon tank of several thousand gallons. Mind you, I think I'd have to buy myself a new property first.

Starts your own fish shop.

Amazon Fish Store!!!

ill move to the UK just help you run it.

i would like a tank with archers and monos. Best thing about this is that i might one day actually have it if i ever get a bigger house. Also a picasso trigger fish, it a beautiful marine fish


Metoo jaguars dont get much bigger than an oscar and probably have less mass so its very feasible to get one. Mine is with my oscars and is 12 to 14inches

Awww, why did you have to rub it in?
Unfortunately, I'm up to the limits here, no more fish to fit in and even less of Oscar size or bigger, else I'd probably have 2 Oscars, hmph. Jag's are so beautiful though!

Reminds me you promised pics of the clown loaches somewhen, so I'd like to add your jaguar to the want-to-see-list

And the brackish fish reminded me I'd love mud skippers! They are just so strange and ugly they are cute.

in the new year i will get some pics sorted

Let's see ... a community Oscar tank with one of every color/pattern. An African Cichild tank of each lake with a variety of color. A tank with a few electric blue and normal JDs in it. A large Betta sorority tank. Porcupine puffer tank. and most likely some others I cannot think of at the moment ... but time and money just aren't on my side yet for all of that (I better meet someone who enjoys the hobby with a similar passion ... I am sure it is much easier to have a s.o. that understands)
