Hi My name is Michiko. I am new to the group. It is so wonderful that 
people can exchange the messages about what we are all into.

One of my friends who is in the local Aquarium society introduced me to 
Killifishes. I thought Killifishes were the ugliest fishes. It is what I 
thought. But I now totally think that Killifishes are one of the most 
beautiful fishes. I just think that a lot of times pictures would not 
show the beauty of killifishes. They look really pretty in person (in 
fishes?) because of their sizes. It is just how I feel. Everyone has 
different opinions.

It is so hard to get nice killifishes. I usually get them through 
Aquarium Society Auction. Killies are not always there.  I have gotten 
some at local fish stores (not really local)  before, but to go to the 
lfs, I have to beg to my bf to drive me for 2 hours. I wish there were 
available at a lot of stores. It is just nice to watch them swim and 
also great to be able to buy it whenever.

I am really new to the killifishes, so I am not quiet sure. But can 
people put a lot of killifishes (one specific kind) in big tank such as 
55? I usually see them in small tanks. I am also wondering if there is 
any fishes that can be in the same tank.
