This red wonder is one of our newly arrived Red Beckford’s Pencilfish. These small fish (1.5″ max) tend to hang around the mid to upper water column, floating about in an almost peculiar fashion. A tank with plant cover and other structures such as driftwood are ideal for them to duck away as needed. They especially love floating plants (and wouldn’t mind some almond leaves, either 😉). These fish would likely pair well with two of our other arrivals this week, the Neon Apistogramma Agassizii and Pea Puffer. Full list of freshwater arrivals below.

Avocado clams!? 🥑 Yes, you read that right. These are freshwater mussels that make nice additions to plant and shrimp tanks. By filter feeding, they actually help improve water quality. Their color, shape, and small size (max. about 2 inches) certainly add unique flare to the aquarium. Full list of freshwater arrivals below.

Can you ID the fancy plecos hidden in this poem?

Sunshine has long-dipped below the horizon
A phantom blue sky, almost black
Dusted with gold
Green shimmers ripple, haunting
Announcing the entrance of royalty
The queen has arrived
