Profile project!

I'm assembling a giant binder of fish breeds (for a friend of mine and anyone else who wants to read it) and want to know if any of you have a favorite fish breed you want to suggest. This is a just for fun project that I thought a few of you may be interested in. If you wanted to take a step further and make a profile I've been using this format:
 Lifespan-
 Size-
 Temperature-
 Compatibility-
 Minimum Tank Size-
 Behavior-
 Spawning Details-
pH-
 Tank Set-Up-
 Originated From-
 Possible Sellers-
 Diet-
 Unusual Habits/Notes about this Species-
 Sexing-
 Filtration-
 Sources:


It would be a lot of fun if you guys contributed and I could send you a copy if you really wanted. Really its just for a bit of fun and something to do while learning about many types of freshwater fish. Let me know if anyone if interested in helping me out

Sounds like a lot of fun. Feel free to use any of my pics of goldfish if you want. It might be nice to have a picture of the "adult" fish for each one you do. Are you sticking to strictly tropical fish? Or will there be a section for pond fish like the goldies and one for temperate water fish like the white cloud minnows?

That's what the 'sexing' part is for.

Thanks everyone! Don't worry, I'm being careful and citing everything! I'll be doing others besides tropical fish so feel free to add species of coldwater and others too. I appreciate everyone's offer to let me use their pictures! I'll let you guys know and give you credit if I do

what are you using the profiles for? If you want to write profiles for our site then everybody can use them and be there whenever you need them also.

OOOOO! I want a copy of the project! It sounds like fun! I've actually done my own lil' binder fish profiles project before a few years ago. Printed the kinds of fish I kept before.

So how do I take part in your project? Should I pm the info?
