They are incredibly beautiful fish and there are so many different varities. I currently have 3 different varities.

Advice:
try not to clean out your aquarium too often because caring to much is one of the biggest fish killers. buy the biggest tank you can afford, once you get into aquariums you will want to buy lots of fish, the bigger the tank the more fish you can buy.
