They are hardy and easy to wean off of live/frozen food but like most Pike Cichlids in the so-called “Lugubris Group” they grow large and are extremely territorial as adults.

Similar to wild Discus or Angelfish, Panda Uaru are best kept in a group of 5 or more.

A powerful and large growing predatory cichlid, the Orinoco Peacock Bass is found throughout the Orinoco and Meta river drainages in Colombia and Venezuela. In nature this species is one of the most widespread species of Cichla and it is found in a variety of habitat types from shallow flooded forest to open water, typically in large schools. Throughout its habitat it is known locally as tucunare or pavon and is an important food and game fish, growing to an adult size of 20”+ and upwards of 8lbs. In the aquarium they make for an impressive display fish, showing vivid yellows, golds, and blues around three (occasionally 4) prominent black spots or bands. Given their huge adult size and active, predatory nature, this fish is suitable only for very large dedicated aquariums or indoor ponds and should not be kept by inexperienced hobbyists. This species, like all Cichla, are extremely fast-growing and can be aggressive towards tankmates, especially other cichlids. Best kept with larger, fast-moving fish.

A stream-dwelling cyprinid found in the shallow, rocky waters of China and Taiwan, the Longfin Banded Hill Trout is a unique and rarely seen schooling fish. Adults develop elongated fins and vibrant yellow and blue coloration, making them an attractive dither fish for medium to large cichlids or as centerpiece fish for a planted aquarium.

A unique predatory species, the freshwater “lionfish” is actually a species of toadfish found in marine and brackish waters throughout coastal Southeast Asia. A well-camouflaged ambush predator, they lie in wait for unsuspecting smaller fish and can take down fish nearly their own size with their surprisingly large mouths. In the aquarium, they are best kept in at least lightly brackish conditions and certainly benefit from the addition of at least some salt for long term success.

The Humphead Carb (Incisilabeo behri) formerly Bangana behri, is an unusual cpyrinid found through the Mekong and its tributaries in Southeast Asia in fast-moving waters. While juvenile fish are not particularly distinctive, as these fish grow they develop a large, distinctive hump on their forehead (similar to the nuchal hump seen on cichlids). A grazer and omnivore, they will readily eat hair algae and diatoms, making them a useful as well as impressive addition to large predatory fish tanks. Best kept in groups of 3 or more.

With their vibrant coloration and active nature, Clown Loaches have been a staple in the aquarium hobby for years. A schooling fish, they are best kept in groups of 5 or more as smaller groups of fish will be shy and rarely display their active, almost comical natural behavior. Clown Loaches inhabit a variety of different habitats in their native Indonesia, and will adapt to most conditions in the aquarium. As a carnivore with a fast metabolism, they should be fed often with a variety of prepared and frozen foods to ensure they are well-fed. Although they can grow fairly large, they are slow growers and it may take years for them to reach their full adult size.

The Glass Catfish or Ghost Glass Cat (Kryptopterus vitreolus) has been popular in the aquarium trade for decades due to its unique, almost completely transparent body and active behavior. In the wild, they inhabit a variety of freshwater habitats in Southeast Asia, from clear water streams to quiet swampy areas, where they are typically found in large shoals. A peaceful, schooling fish, they are relatively hardy in the aquarium but prefer slightly soft water and excellent water quality. They should be kept in groups of at least 5 fish so they can form a school. Fast moving or nippy tankmates should be avoided as they can stress out the more peaceful Glass Catfish.

One of the more unique species of knifefish, the Aba Aba is found throughout much of Africa, where it inhabits shallow, slow moving bodies of water. While juvenile fish are often found in small groups, adults become solitary large predators which like most knifefish use a specialized organ to detect the weak electrical currents generated by other fish. In the aquarium, they tend to be extremely aggressive, often attacking tankmates at night. This combined with their huge adult size makes them best suited for a species tank.

A unique and rarely seen characin, the Amazon Red Tail Tetra is a larger growing species found in relatively fast moving waters of the Amazon and its tributaries. In the aquarium, they are fast moving and always in motion, best kept in a school of 5 or more fish. They can be aggressive and nip fins off smaller or slower moving species so tankmates should be chosen carefully – any long-finned species should be avoided. With their size and speed, these tetras make an ideal dither fish for medium sized South American Cichlids.

A resident of fast-moving, rocky streams in Southeast Asia, Red Lizard Loaches use their modified pectoral fins to attach themselves to the rocky substrate and move among the rocks in search of food. In the wild, they are grazers and generalists, feeding on algae, biofilm, and small insects and crustaceans. In the aquarium, they do best when kept under similar conditions to their wild habitat – rocks, ample current, and well-oxygenated water. Although they will accept a number of prepared sinking foods, it’s important to supplement their diet with algae- or veggie-based food.
