Freshwater Fishes of Southeast Asia: Potential for the Aquarium
Aquarium Sciences and Conservation, 1, 79±90 (1997) Freshwater ®shes of Southeast Asia: potential for the aquarium ®sh trade and conservation issues Peter K.L. Ngà and H.H. Tan School of Biological Sciences, National University of Singapore, Singapore 119260, Republic of Singapore Southeast Asia is an area rich in biodiversity, with a high degree of endemism in both ¯ora and fauna. Many freshwater ®sh species have been exploited for the ornamental ®sh trade. As the population in South East Asia increases, vast tracts of forests are cleared for agricultural, industrial and urbanization purposes. To conserve and sustainably exploit the wild ®sh population, measures should be adopted to protect this natural resource. Already, several ornamental species have been severely overexploited, e.g. bala shark (Balantiocheilos melanopterus), pygmy loach (Botia sidthimunki) and arowana (Scleropages formosus), but the extirpation of local populations occurs for many reasons, including deforestation, and not just because of ®shing for the trade. There are also still many species that have great ornamental ®sh potential. Wild ®sh species have also been successfully bred in captivity and conserved, e.g. tiger barb (Puntius tetrazona), bala shark, pygmy loach and arowana. Other methods of conservation include public education, leaving pristine forests intact and reforestation. The aquarium trade of the bala shark, harlequin rasbora (Rasbora heteromorpha), clown loach (Botia macracanthus), arowana and saw®sh (Pristis microdon) is discussed. KEYWORDS: Freshwater ®shes, Southeast Asia, aquarium ®sh, conservation, biodiversity INTRODUCTION Southeast Asia is a conglomerate of continental landmasses and numerous islands, all of which lie within the equatorial belt. The region composed of the countries of Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Brunei and the Philippines enjoys year- round warmth, high humidity and light, which has resulted in an environment that is extremely diverse and varied in habitats (Whitmore, 1986). -

Volume 59, Issue 4 April 14, 2015 London Aquaria Society Ken Boorman www.londonaquariasociety.com will be doing a presentation on Rainbow fish. Pseudacanthicus sp. L024 - Red Fin Cactus Pleco by Monopolymurder Photography / Animals, Plants & Nature / Aquatic Life©2014-2015 Monopolymurder http://monopolymurder.deviantart.com/art/Pseudacanthicus-sp-L024-Red-Fin-Cactus-Pleco-425540596 Just thought I'd give you guys a lesson on plecos. I got this beauty recently and he's absolutely gorgeous. A rare, large growing Pleco which generally grow up to around 30-40cm long. They are a carnivorous pleco, which means unlike the typical algae eaters you get, these guys generally eat meaty substances, like shrimp and fish. This guy, due to his size, is currently being fed small freeze dried shrimp and bloodworm. I also intend to feed it some colour enhancing foods in attempt to get the red in the finnage a little brighter. They're very tough fish and can get very territo- rial without the right environment. I have plenty of hiding spaces in my tank for my cats so each one has marked out its own territory. The way I am holding the L024 is the safest way to hold a pleco both for you and the pleco. If you need to hold a pleco for any reason, do -NOT- use a net. Due to their spiny skin they can get caught in fishing nets and trying to free them can cause horrendous damage to them. Each pleco has a solid bone area just before the gills which is a hard area. -

Carp Dominate Fish Communities Managing the Impacts of Carp Throughout Many Waterways in South- Eastern Australia
Managing the Impacts of Introduced carp dominate fish communities the Impacts of Carp Managing throughout many waterways in south- eastern Australia. They also occur in Carp Western Australia and Tasmania and have the potential to spread through many more of Australia’s water systems. Carp could eventually become widespread throughout the country. Carp are known to damage aquatic plants and increase water turbidity but their impacts on native fish species are not yet clear. Carp are also a commercial and recreational fishing resource. Managing the Impacts of Carp provides a comprehensive review of the history of carp in Australia, their biology, the damage they cause and community attitudes to these problems and their solutions. Key strategies for successful carp manage- ment are recommended by the authors who are scientific experts in carp manage- ment. These strategies are illustrated by case studies. Managing the Impacts of Carp is an essential guide for policy makers, land and water managers, carp fishers and all others interested in carp management.

Aquarium Fish As Larval Predator
Dr. Saroj Kumar Ghosh, Department of Zoology, Bejoy Narayan Mahavidyalaya Aquarium fish as larval predator Using conventional techniques like spraying of insecticides, repellants, fogging and other chemicals to reduce the growth of mosquitoes not only pollutes the environment, but also allows the mosquito to enhance its resistance. As a result, the mosquitoes remain intact and simply refuse to die. However, the population of mosquito could be effectively tackled using the aquarium fish, which primarily feeds on the mosquito larvae. Experience has shown that biological control using fish is best achieved as part of an integrated vector control strategy. Larvivorous: feeding mainly on insect larvae and pupae. Types of larval habitat The larvivorous fish can be used in a variety of aquatic habitats for control of mosquito breeding: a) Man-made habitats: Water tanks (domestic and industrial), lakes, fountain pools, cattle troughs, swimming pools, cisterns, ponds, shallow wells, waste ditches, husk pits, drains, water storage tanks at construction sites, seepage water pools and water reservoirs of different types, especially in desert locations, irrigation cisterns and canals, shallow ponds, small dams and rice fields. b) Natural habitats: Ponds, lakes, riverbed pools, slow moving small streams, swamps and temporary water collections during rainy season. Criteria for species selection: i) Larvivorous fish must be small, hardy and capable of getting about easily in shallow waters among thick weeds where mosquitoes find suitable breeding grounds. ii) They must be drought resistant and capable of flourishing in both deep and shallow waters. iii) They must have the ability to withstand handling and transportation for long distances.
