Our Best-Selling Fish of the Week! (November 2026 #1)

 

Welcome back to our weekly Top 5! It's time to take a look at the fish and invertebrates making waves this week. From adorable nano fish to colourful community favourites, we've seen some interesting movements in the charts, with a new entry, a returning favourite and a change at the very top!

So, let's dive in and count down this week's bestsellers!

5th Place - Pygmy Corydoras

Making their debut in this week's charts are the adorable Pygmy Corydoras! These tiny catfish are a fantastic choice for smaller aquariums, bringing plenty of personality despite their miniature size.

Not only are they great little bottom-dwellers, but their peaceful nature and shoaling behaviour make them a brilliant addition to nano community tanks. If you're looking for a small, active and charming addition to your aquarium, these little guys are certainly worth considering!

 

4th Place - White Cloud Mountain Minnows

A seriously underrated fish, but certainly not overlooked this week! The White Cloud Mountain Minnow has secured fourth place, showing that sometimes the classics deserve a little more attention.

Hardy, active and full of character, these small fish are a fantastic option for community aquariums. Suitable for both temperate and tropical setups.

 

3rd Place - Albino Cherry Barbs

Back with a bang! After slipping out of the charts over the last few weeks, Albino Cherry Barbs have fought their way back into the rankings and secured a comfortable third place.

With their eye-catching colouring, peaceful temperament and lively personalities, it's easy to see why these fish remain such a popular choice. It looks like they're not ready to leave the charts just yet!

 

2nd Place - Cherry Shrimp

Taking second place this week are the ever-popular Cherry Shrimp!

We've had some particularly lovely new blue shrimp arrive recently, and we're wondering whether these stunning new additions have helped push shrimp sales even higher this week.

Whether you're a fan of classic red Cherry Shrimp or prefer something a little more unusual, these fascinating little invertebrates are a brilliant way to add colour and activity to a planted aquarium.

 

1st Place - Platy

Taking the crown this week are the Platies! Moving up from second place last week, these colourful community favourites have secured the number one spot!

As popular as ever, it's easy to understand why Platies continue to feature in our weekly charts. With their incredible variety of patterns, colours and fin shapes, there's something to suit almost every taste.

Hardy, lively and full of personality, Platies remain a fantastic choice for community aquariums.

 

Which Fish Will Top the Charts Next Week?

That's a wrap on this week's Top 5! We've welcomed a new entry, celebrated a returning favourite and crowned a new champion.

But will the Platy hold onto its number one position next week? Could the Cherry Shrimp make a comeback, or will another aquarium favourite steal the show?
