You can catch Melanotaenia duboulayi, Rhadinocentrus ornatus, and Pseudomugil signifer in Brisbane's freshwater lakes and rivers. Galaxias sp. might also be present, and possibly a native pygmy perch. Non-native species like cichlids or livebearers may be found too, as they've been released into the wild.

I found some info on Melanotaeniidae and Pseudomugilidae - check out this site: rainbowfish.angfaqld.org.au. For more on the ecology of Australian freshwater fishes, there's a book by CSIRO that's worth a read: www.publish.csiro.au.
