What are the Most Colorful FW Fish? (post pics!)

[TipStylez]

If moneys a problem, also getting the fish. Plus a community type fish.

I would vote for the blue ram. Killis are nice, just hard as hell to find the more nice ones.

Killies are fairly easy to get, just not through a fish store. Club auctions are one place you can usually find nice ones, and it's easy as pie to get them from AKA members (or the national killi clubs in other countries). Shipping gets a bit more expensive in the winter, but it's nowhere near as expensive as getting them from most aquabid sellers.

Siam Fighters, Lake Malawi Cichlids, Discus, Dwarf Gouramis.

Killies, particularly the Aphysemion and Nothos, and some of the smaller rainbowfish & cousins:

I think the moral of this post is:

freshwater fish can be beautiful too.
