High level fish

The 75 would be great, but its too long. I have a 40" space to put it in.

:idea2: Oh, oh, oh! I got it! I could have a custom 200 gallon tank built with the same footprint as the 65! :eek: What would that be, 75" tall? :help:
My wife would shoot me. :mad2:

LOL yes, it is quite fun!!!! And you know...the day I wrote that sig. I was so depressed, having the worst day in a long time. I was walking tsomewhere to get lunch, and some guy, scary looking, looked at me smiled and gave a nod. I could have scowled back and continued to be upset, but I realised theres always something to smile about. I smiled back, and wore that smile thee rest of the day. Tanks for noticing, cuz IM smiling now too :)
 
I just picked up a group of 4 marble hatchets, I really like them. Very cool colors.

i had hatchets for the longest time, and was happy with them...until i found out about halfbeaks. they're great, always stay at the top. supposedly a brackish water fish, but mine are in a freshwater tank, and have grown up just fine. they aren't usually a stocked item in stores, but any good lfs can hook you up if you ask. last time i ordered 6 and they were cheaper than hatchets! anyways, check em out, something different!

Halfbeaks are great aren't they? The brackish thing is a matter of confusion. Many species are found in both brackish and fresh water, and certainly don't require brackish conditions. Some species (Celebes for instance) are freshwater fish and don't do well in even slightly brackish water. There are likely some halfbeaks that require brackish water, but most of the more commonly seen species don't.

Anyway, they are without a doubt my favorite surface-dwelling fish.
