Here is the problem.
I am an American and I live in Israel, in a small town in the Negev desert.
Despite this aquariums are a common hobby in this town and there are 5 pet shops in this small town of 40,000 people.
However the variety of fish available are limited and tend to rarely change with the exception of the few oddballs that are ordered in small quantity.
Generally the most popular choice here are African cichlids, and the most common thing to see. Some south American too.
Cory's are common but not they pretty ones. Just mostly ugly bronze corys.
Ok so I don't really have any monster fish. It's 290 liter, tall half circle tank.
Currently it's a peaceful tank with 6 angels, 2 silver sharks, 2 bronze Cory's and a gourami.
They all get along fine. With the exception of 2 of the angels who just have an attitude problem.
I would like to get some additional fish for my tank, bit most species here are not compatible or wildcards.
Of the fish I have recently seen show up in stores that do not normally appear are:
2 clown knifes
2 freshwater snowflake eels
2 fire eels
Several Iridescent sharks
Sometimes Acras are available too but I am not sure what kind.
Would any of these possibly work in my tank?
If you have any suggestions for fish to keep an eye out for please tell me as well with a picture?
Everyone here speaks Hebrew and most fish go by different names so I have to research and identify on my own, often the store employees do not know the exact species or origin.
