There is active aquarium scene in Turkey. The country is also home to some amazing fish. Thanks for sharing the photos.

Thanks for these interesting photos! Indeed, Turkey has some odd and unique fish species. One such fish would be Aphanius sp. and they are killies of Turkey, somewhat similar to Cyprinodon sp. otherwise known as pupfish of North America.

I think at least one LFS do direct export to Turkey. Very good business : ) The fish scene there is such that they like simple pleasures like common gold fish, not so exotic tetra and etc.
