Default Hatchet Fish

There are several areas of dense
plant growth they can retreat to if they feel threatened, but so far
they are enjoying themselves out in the open. I haven't looked up
their specific species name, but I think they are
hatchetus ordinaryii.

===================
I had these years ago and they're definitely top feeders. But watch them as
they tend to JUMP! As I remember we lost several to jumping and there was
only a thin slit between the frame and the glass canopy; just enough space
to drop food in.
