Radix your a fool. Acaras can grow upto 20cm in length, both of mine did within a year and a half. Theres around 10-15 of the fish in this tank by the looks of things. aswell as the comets, sharks, and catfish. They certainly wouldnt be fine in a tank half that size.
I admit, there are a lot of fish in there, but the photos give a false impression of the size of the tank.
A friend of a friend is a fish breeder. I'll probably give the yellowish striped cichlids to him, as they will grow to large for the tank in those numbers. (you should see the tank I brought them up in, now THAT was crowded) Most of the other fish are rather tiny actually.

There are no goldfish in there... If you mean the little red fish, they are barbs. I dunno about the fish you call "acaras". I think you mean the yellow, black striped ones. I was told that they are Nicaraguense cichlids. They do grow big though. I think 10 is a good guess on their numbers.

Those are some good shots, Phrizzy. The colors are very vivid.
I know what this bug is, but I want to see you all guess what type it is first. Just guess what major family, such as beetles or wasps. You'll be suprised when I tell you what it is. However, I will tell you that it is in the Melittia subfamily.
Almost, Phrizzy. It is a moth known as a squash vine borer (melittia cucurbitae). They feed off of the fluids in the stems of different squashes, such as pumpkins or cucumbers.
