I recently inherited a 70 gallon aquarium from my mother. She was a science teacher and had been given various fish from students and collected some from the wild, so being a newbie I have no idea what they are.

I'd gladly look them up myself, but the only website I could find was just for fish native to Australia.

Below is a quick snapshot of the tank and some of the fish:

There's also one very nifty looking fish, but it likes hanging out underneath a rock and I haven't been able to get a good shot of it yet. Below are two bad ones...I'd be impressed if someone's able to identify it from them. :)
