Assorted Silver Dollars (Myleus / Metynnis)

Primarily herbivores that enjoy vegetable matter, spirulina flakes, algae wafers, blanched greens, and occasional frozen foods.

Generally peaceful, though may nip fins if underfed or kept in too-small groups.

Great choice for beginner to intermediate aquarists — hardy and adaptable when kept in groups.
