COLD WATER

 

This is a directory to pages on the site with information relating to cold water fish families, genera and species. The information provided is not exhaustive and is only of an introductory nature. It is provided to assist those starting out in Aquaria, giving some basic hints and tips.

Only fish I have kept in Aquaria or those familiar to me will be listed in the directory. Those of which I have no knowledge in practical terms will not be included in the directory. I am only seeking to share that which I have learnt by experience in one form or another.

COLD WATER COMMUNITY TANK:

What fish can be kept in a cold water community tank? I say forget the usual Goldfish, Comets, Fan Tails, Black Moors, etc. Why be locked into the typical common cold water community tank? Admittedly my tank is probably a little more odd than most, but you can't deny its interest value. What do I have in my cold water community tank?

 

My Cold Water Community Tank:

My cold water community tank is a 2 foot tank with a simple hollow log ornament, 2 small terra cotta pots and 1 Val plant. I have a gravel base. I don't have an underground filter, but it would be wise to have one in this tank (though the burrowing nature of the Yabbies probably make it unwise).

These are what I have in my cold water community tank:
