A few photos of my fish, or the pics I could get of them anyway since a had a limited amount of time to get pictures. I need to put these fish in a larger tank, but for the moment most of them are doing well. I'm on the look out for a large tank.
This is my senegal bichir:

My corycat, ropefish, and pictus catfish.

And finally, the killer fish who really needs to be rehomed. I bought this fish when I was a little bit irrisponsible with my fishtank and he was sort of an impulse buy. I had asked the petshop if it was okay to home him in my tank (which at the time was a 29gal) while he was about as long as my finger and they said it'd be fine. Even a socalled fish expert recommended it! Yet now, it's I think sixteen inches long...He's an iridescent shark. He's not really a shark, he's a catfish. Also here are shots of the pictus catfish and some clown loaches sneaking into the shot. They just love to get into pictures...

edit:
the stuff all over the outside of the tank is water stains from my plecostomus and shark hitting the water and splashing it out. Also water tends to get spilled when we clean the tank.

You clearly don't hang out in my house, then, because my two Betta girls get called cute all the time. I even wiggle dance in front of them when they do it to me....

That being said, cute fish. ^-^ Yeah, you're right about iridescent sharks getting big. They need quite a bit of space.

Ah, and cories are some of my favorite fish ever. =)

Yes, they're pretty adorable. The cories that is. However I actually got it because someone said it'd help with the bottom of the tank because they were scavengers. He told me that because other catfish were semi-aggressive, even after I think I told him I had a pictus >>; At the time I was just desperate to clean my tank. We had a lot of cloudiness for a while. It's fixed now, though.

I'd never heard of one either until I found it at the petshop. They're quite nice fish, although you're supposed to keep them in schools...I don't really have room for a school, but I'm planning on getting another.
