Sardine and pilchard are common names for various species of small, oily forage fish in the herring family Clupeidae. The term sardine was first used in English during the early 15th century; a somewhat dubious folk etymology says it comes from the Italian island of Sardinia, around which sardines were once supposedly abundant.

The starry sturgeon also known as stellate sturgeon or sevruga, is a species of sturgeon. It is native to the Black, Azov, Caspian and Aegean sea basins, but it has been extirpated from the last and it is predicted that the remaining natural population will follow soon due to overfishing.

The dadio is a cyprinid fish, is rarely seen in the aquarist hobby but is not entirely unlike the Danio nigrofasciatus in appearance. Laubuka dadiburjori is a gold/silver fish with a blue line, it has two colour morphs, one with a distinct blue line, the other with a dotted blue line. Barbels are not present. Like most Danionins, this fish has a tendency to jump. A tight fitting lid with no gaps is recommended. Endemic in India, where both colour morphs co-exist, the fish is found from Tamil Nadu to Goa. It is necessary to avoid making it coexist with big fish which would only make a mouthful of it.

Laubuka latens is a species of small fish of the minnow and carp family, Cyprinidae, and the Danio subfamily. It was described in 2015 from specimens collected in the Cauvery River and its tributaries in the Western Ghats of India. This species and Laubuka trevori had been thought to be local variants of the Indian glass barb but were shown to be different species. The unique features of L. latens are that it has 7½ branched rays in its dorsal fin with 5 branched rays in its pelvic fin; it has 14 precaudal vertebrae and 17–18 predorsal scales; aw s well as 5+4+2 teeth on the fifth ceratobranchial bone. It can also be distinguished from its close relatives by its plain unmarked body, lacking stripes.

L. trevori has 14½–15½ branched rays in its anal fin, a relatively short pelvic fin which is about a fifth as long as its standard length and it has two stripes running along its body: one a golden and the other a blue-green stripe which runs from behind the operculum to the peduncle of the caudal fin which is broken and less distinct towards the head than the golden stripe.
