A nice Parkinson's Rainbowfish This fellow has been living in Tom's 29-gallon aquarium for a couple of months. His orange marked areas expand as he grows bigger. This show starts with Tom and Nevin talking about each fish that's shown on this page.       A Venezuelan Eartheater Cichlid This was just a small 1.5" to 2" long tan fish, when imported wild from the rainforests in Venezuela about 6-months ago. Since then he's been living in one of Tom's 55-gallon aquariums, where he's grown to be about 6" long. Each day he gets more colorful, and it's lots of fun watching him constantly churn one mouthful of gravel after another to extract tiny bits of food. This is a wonderful aquarium fish.       A young Jack Dempsey Cichlid This young fellow has also grown up in one of Tom's 55-gallon aquariums. He's now about 6" long. A week or two ago he was mostly pink and orange. Now he's is about 50% black and blue, and soon he'll be almost entirely black and blue. This is an ornery aggressive fish that is not suitable for most aquariums but loved by aquarists, who have one.         A Pictus Catfish swimming in Tom's Aquarium. Wow! What a wonderful Catfish, shown here, watching Tom take pictures. Those whiskers are actually longer than this fish's body, and just look at that happy-go-lucky smile. This is a wonderful aquarium fish.     Fish in the News from AquariumFish.net AquariumFish.net has sent you a news article. http://news.yahoo.com/ ... newspeciesdiscoveredevery3days     Fish in the News from Robert in New Jersey Hi Tom and Nevin, there are two stories this week that should peek your interest one being the math class at the aquarium the other is more of a challenge as it’s in your back yard so to speak.
