List of Freshwater Aquarium Fish Species Pdf List of freshwater aquarium fish species pdf Continue Article in Wikipedia A huge number of aquatic species successfully adapted for life in a freshwater aquarium. This list gives several examples of the most common species found in Angelfish Home Aquariums Common name Thomsonomy of Life span aggression About the image Size Notes Temperature Range Ph range Angelfish'Pterophyllum scalare several color varieties; This species is a common angel fish in the aquarium trade. Angelfish can grow up to fifteen centimeters (six inches) and therefore have to be housed in a large aquarium. Angelfish should be stored alone, or stored with three or more. This is because if the two are kept together, more fish will choose on small fish. Angelfish are not as hardy as other cichlids and should not be kept with small fish such as neon tetras. However, quite the opposite: Angelfish should not be kept with fish that can nip and irritate it, such as some great tetras. They are good fish for beginners, but only if you pay attention to their tankmates and temperaments. They work well with other fish but should be stored in school 3 or more if you want more than one.

  • Decline in Fish Species Diversity Due to Climatic and Anthropogenic Factors

Mehedi Alam b, Mohammad Mahfujul Haque b,* a Department of Fisheries, University of Rajshahi, Rajshahi, Bangladesh b Department of Aquaculture, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh, Bangladesh ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: This study evaluates changes in fish species diversity over time in Hakaluki Haor, an ecologically critical wetland Haor in Bangladesh, and the factors affecting this diversity. Fish species diversity data were collected from fishers using Fish species diversity participatory rural appraisal tools and the change in the fish species diversity was determined using Shannon- Fishers Wiener, Margalef's Richness and Pielou's Evenness indices. Principal component analysis (PCA) was conducted Principal component analysis with a dataset of 150 fishers survey to characterize the major factors responsible for the reduction of fish species Climate change fi Anthropogenic activity diversity. Out of 63 sh species, 83% of them were under the available category in 2008 which decreased to 51% in 2018. Fish species diversity indices for all 12 taxonomic orders in 2008 declined remarkably in 2018. The first PCA (climatic change) responsible for the reduced fish species diversity explained 24.05% of the variance and consisted of erratic rainfall (positive correlation coefficient 0.680), heavy rainfall (À0.544), temperature fluctu- ation (0.561), and beel siltation (0.503). The second PCA was anthropogenic activity, including the use of harmful fishing gear (0.702), application of urea to harvest fish (0.673), drying beels annually (0.531), and overfishing (0.513).

  • Minnows and Molecules: Resolving the Broad and Fine-Scale Evolutionary Patterns of Cypriniformes
    Minnows and molecules: resolving the broad and fine-scale evolutionary patterns of Cypriniformes by Carla Cristina Stout A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama May 7, 2017 Keywords: fish, phylogenomics, population genetics, Leuciscidae, sequence capture Approved by Jonathan W. Armbruster, Chair, Professor of Biological Sciences and Curator of Fishes Jason E. Bond, Professor and Department Chair of Biological Sciences Scott R. Santos, Professor of Biological Sciences Eric Peatman, Associate Professor of Fisheries, Aquaculture, and Aquatic Sciences Abstract Cypriniformes (minnows, carps, loaches, and suckers) is the largest group of freshwater fishes in the world. Despite much attention, previous attempts to elucidate relationships using molecular and morphological characters have been incongruent. The goal of this dissertation is to provide robust support for relationships at various taxonomic levels within Cypriniformes. For the entire order, an anchored hybrid enrichment approach was used to resolve relationships. This resulted in a phylogeny that is largely congruent with previous multilocus phylogenies, but has much stronger support. For members of Leuciscidae, the relationships established using anchored hybrid enrichment were used to estimate divergence times in an attempt to make inferences about their biogeographic history. The predominant lineage of the leuciscids in North America were determined to have entered North America through Beringia ~37 million years ago while the ancestor of the Golden Shiner (Notemigonus crysoleucas) entered ~20–6 million years ago, likely from Europe. Within Leuciscidae, the shiner clade represents genera with much historical taxonomic turbidity. Targeted sequence capture was used to establish relationships in order to inform taxonomic revisions for the clade.

The top order with diverse species composition was cypriniformes with 125 species, 39 genera and four families. Cyprinidae contributed 48.89 % to total freshwater fishes of Tamil Nadu. Tamil Nadu constitutes about 43.11 % to the endemic freshwater fishes of India and 40.09 % to the total endemic fish diversity of Western Ghats of India. The trophic level of freshwater fishes of Tamil Nadu ranged from 2.0 to 4.5 containing 45.37 % of mid-level to high level carnivores. Assessment of the fishery status of freshwater fishes of Tamil Nadu revealed existence of 132 species worth for capture fishery, 132 species worth for ornamental fishery, 50 species worth for culture fishery and 28 species worth for gamefish fishery. Selective breeding and ranching of native fish species may help to overcome the difficulties of species endangerment. Collection of fishes from wild to develop the brood stock for captive breeding, seed production, experimental aquaculture of fast growing fishes and colourful fishes for aquarium purposes could be potential source of income in the rural areas of Tamil Nadu.
