YOQNG CATFISH. The local species of catfishes are hai^dy and interesting. excellent for the beginner. They are as young sunfishes, basses, etc., which can be collected with the aid of a small dip net, can be kept readily. The local species should be studied much more commonly than they are at present. Why so many people are satisfied to keep ordinary goldfishes when there is at hand an abundance of attractive native fishes of more lively habits and graceful form, is only to be explained by the fact that the former give so little trouble and can be bought of a dealer instead of collected at a brook. Of course one can easily understand the attitude of the fish fancier who makes a specialty of breeding various strains of goldfishes or of keeping rare exotic forms of bizarre appearance or unusual habits. Overstocki7ig is the most serious error into ivhich the begin- ner is likely to fall. In his enthusiasm for the fishes and his love for their attractive colors and movements, he places more speci- mens in his tank than can be readily provided with oxygen. Often, when they are not all affected in a short time, the result may be that they are gradually enervated until the loss of some of them establishes a proper balance of the animal and vegetable life. Until the management of the aquarium is thoroughly mas- tered, the rule should be to keep well under the limit of animal life.
