Hi, am looking for suggestions for stocking of a new fish tank, we currently have a 215 litre freshwater community tank stock with tetras, doradis, large shrimp & aquatic dwarf frogs (not clawed!). My husband and i are going to set up another large tabk and looking for suggestions on stock. We arent keen on Cichlids, but we do like our oddballs. Any suggestions gratefully received. Thanks

How large is the tank you are going to set up? There are some really great oddballs if you go large enough.

A good fish that comes to mind right now is the African Butterfly Fish however I'm sure there are plenty more.

Hey lallylou, how you doing, welcome to FP. I know you said you don't like cichlids but, for a small cichlid, how about a pair of rams, German, or Bolivian. Check it out on the profiles
Their really colourful and peaceful.

Also maybe some tetras and cories to go with them, so a nice South American themed tank, just an idea
