nickthe1  Fingerling Posts: 25 Kudos: 19 Votes: 0 Registered: 08-Jun-2005   | I have a 40 gallon aquarium with only a Irredesent shark(7 inches) I would like to know if anyone has ideas about other fish i could put in it. I really like neons and other tetras( fish that school). any ideas? |

If you take the Shark back you can have some Tetra & Corydoras schools in your 40gal. What other fish do you have?. http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/s8xi5heh/my_photos http://www.geocities.com/s8xi5heh/classic_blue.html http://www.flickr.com/photos/corydoras/ Member of the Malta Aquarist Society - 1970. http://www.maltaaquarist.com |
