These letters in our fish A-Z didn’t have all that many varieties of fish associated with them, so we have popped them all together into one post. We’ve included the common names and scientific names as usual and there are a range of freshwater and saltwater fish.
If we’ve missed any fish that start with Q, U or X from our lists, then please pop us a comment below so we can add them in.
We hope you’ve been enjoying our fishy alphabet and have found some really cool fish for your aquarium. Now, on with the very short lists…
