Does this exist?????

Flyfins · 08-23-2007, 02:06 PM

I'm looking for a fish that's around 6 inches long, preferrably blue or yellow in color, easy to take care of, peaceful, can go in a 55 gallon, and is a herbivore or omnivore with a long nose.

I'm not sure that anything like this acturally exist. XD But if something like this description does please tell me.

Would help if we knew why you needed such a specific fish. There may be alternatives to your problem....

all i can think of is something like an a malawi eye biter(african cichlid) but it isn't an omnivore. or peaceful.

Its not saltwater, either.

I can think of a fish that is blue, has a fairly pointed nose, gets to 6 inches, but is not peaceful or omnivorous/herbivorous.

I'm thinking of an arrowhead soapfish.

I'm just crazy about blue fish with long noses. ^_^

No, this fish does not exist.
6-inch fish do not fit in 55-gallon tanks, no matter what their color.
