Default Tropical Fish ??

anyone into tropical fish ? i just finished cleaning my 50 gallon tank. i have had the set up for about idk 10 years. rite now i have :

1 premadella cat fish about 7 years old 6" long
1 white belly catfish about 4 years old and 3" long
3 goramies,two are blue pearl and one is bright orange. really pretty fish. orange one is about 4 1/2" while the two blue ones are about 3 1/2"
4 tiger barbs, two are orange and black and the other two are emerald green.ranging from 3/4" to 1 1/2"
3 silver fish, i forgot what their names are but are tetras. small look like a minnow with a black line over their eyes and black fins about 1" - 2" long
1 calico placosomus. i hardly ever see this fish. about 2" long
2 red tetras. about 1 inch l;long. had 4 but catfish ate two.

ill try to get some pics but its tough getting good pics through glass.sorry for the spelling error on the fishes names.

Once I get a house I will start a tropical fish set up again. I had one growing up and it stayed with my dad, I really enjoyed it.

Nice looking tank

A couple of the corals and the hollowed conk shell in our tank. I brought home from the Bahamas when we got married there.

Coral is a nice touch to any tank

I got a ten gallon with about 30 pineapple sword tails in it. They reproduce like crazy. Also got 2 corey catfish in there.

Used to have a 125 plexi with 7 Red Bellied Pacus. They got about 7" in diameter. Bad ass fish. Ate dog food sized pellets and 4" feeders like no ones business.

I can't wait to do up another.

i had a snakehead (yea the kind the let loose and fisherman catch) and it hit the filter one day and the water started pouring out onto the surge strip. it was melted but that is as far as it went. didn't even blow a fuse. don't ask me how....
