Why archerfish should be your next big-tank project.
There’s nothing as unique as a fish that can snipe its prey from far above the water’s surface. We shine the spotlight on the fabulous Toxotes genus, with hints and tips on how to set up a shooting gallery of your own.
What’s inside the July issue of PFK:
• SUPER SHARP SHOOTERS: When it comes to interesting hunting behaviour, nothing can beat the sniping of archerfish.
• ONLY THE DEEPEST RED: Biotope legend Tai Strietman sets up a black phantom biotope with a beautiful Cabomba backdrop.
• ROLL OVER FOR ROLOFFI: Michel Keijman says you should head west for the nicest Pelvicachromis species.
• FAVOURITES IN MINIATURE: With the dwarf cichlid market growing, which is the right smaller species for your tank?
• BANISH THE GREEN: Algae can ruin a pond in a single season. Jeremy Gay explains how to keep on top of a nationwide nuisance.
• SKIM V. SKIM: Two skimmers doing the same job—Fluval’s SK400 and Oase’s CrystalSkim 350. Which is best?
