Most of these are freshwater fish but several live only in the salty parts of the Murray, closer to the sea (known as marine fish), and 6 are diadromous (which means they spend part of their life cycles in freshwater and part in the sea).
Fishing in the Basin is done by both commercial fishing industries and by the recreational fishing person.
The main species fished in the Basin are the Murray cod (the most sought after fish), golden perch, silver perch, freshwater catfish, spangled perch, river flfish, two-spined flfish, brown and rainbow trout, and Atlantic salmon.

 Painted Glassfish: Artificially Altering Aquatic Animals   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-26)
Through the utilization of the same needle and syringe to inject tens, possibly hundreds of fish, it is highly possible that the dyeing process furthers the risk of lymphocystis infection by lowering the fishes natural immunity and likely transmitting the virus via the injection tools.
Fish displaying vivid, bright colours have long been desired in the captive animal trade, and the desire for colourful fish has especially expanded within recent times.
The fish are exploited by exportation to consumer countries under the names of Painted Glassfish and 'discofish' (MacMahon, Burgess, 1998), as their flourescent colouration resembles the brilliant colours of discotheque lights.

 Practical Fishkeeping magazine | Why its cruel to dye
On the face of it, the practice of dyeing or "painting" the fish seems fairly innocuous and the artificially dyed specimens are certainly very eye-catching in their various "day-glo" colours.
It is possible that the injection process increases the risk of this disease, perhaps by transmitting the virus from fish to fish via the needle (the same needle is used to inject tens or even hundreds of fish).
In fact, increasing scientific evidence suggests that fish are indeed capable of feeling pain, though we have no way of telling whether they perceive painful events in the same way as we do.

These fish occur in a wide variety of waters, not just brackish, so some care should be taken to allow the fish to adapt to the conditions of the aquarium.
These fish have been widely studied by zoologists because of their remarkable ability to adapt to different water conditions from freshwater right through to hypersaline water more salty than the sea.
Although the ability to produce live young (rather than eggs) is found in many groups of fishes, the family Poecilidae is so specialised for this mode of reproduction that the group is usually referred to simply as the 'livebearers'.

Most of our fish are 6 weeks to 2 months in age and weigh 1/10 gm whereas an adult danio may weigh 10 times this amount.
African cichlids are incompatible with the fish you're planning on keeping based on their temper, and most of all on the water conditions they enjoy (very hard and alkaline water with several minerals in quantities that would cause distress to some fish such as the numerous tetras that you're planning on housing in your tank).
The fish is acting normally now, and i've given the plants a bit of thought - I have good old plastic ones at the moment - I know live plants can be messy and if they start to rot, don't do the water much good.

fish such as the painted glass fish and that horrible parrot cichlid (that comes in all sorts of colors) should not be sold.
I think its a great idea to inform the storekeepers that we object to their selling such mistreated fish, and will not be buying from them in future if they continue to do so.

The truly freshwater fishes have unique significance in zoogeographical interpretations because they are as closely bound to land masses as are any terrestrial animals and are almost confined to their own drainage Systems.
The range of distribution of torrential fishes is much more limited and in view of their limited power of migration, torrential fishes afford better evidence of zoogeographical relationships (Hora, 1944).
