Keeping Brackish Water Fish: the Silver Mono or Malayan Angelfish
 

Hi, Frank Indiviglio here. I’m a herpetologist, zoologist, and book author, recently retired from a career of over 20 years with the Bronx Zoo. Large, flashy, uniquely-shaped and active, Silver Monos, Monodactylus argenteus, always draw attention when seen for the first time. But there are many misconceptions concerning their proper care, and new owners often become frustrated with them and move on to other interests. However, when their unique needs are met, Monos are quite hardy and make for spectacular exhibits. A group I cared for at the Bronx Zoo, housed with Mudskippers, Fiddler Crabs and Banded Archerfish, proved so interesting that they rivaled neighboring Leaf Insects, Hornbills and Tapirs for visitors’ attentions.
