Janna Mega Fish Posts: 1386 Registered: 24-Aug-2003	What sized tank do you have? 2 Angelfish: 1 Full Grown 1 Baby- Medium Grown 1 Silver Dollar 6 Black Neon Tetras 3 Black Skirt Tetras 2 Zebra Danios The silver dollar needs a large tank, since they are active schoolers and get quite big. The black skirt tetras are also schoolers, as well as the zebra danios. Depending on your tank size, I'd bump up those schools to at least 6 before adding anything else. They shade the glow of it with their mossy-misty costumes, They wear masks of silk, porcelain, brass, and silver, So as not to mislead with their own, ordinary faces.

houston Fish Guru You want what when? Posts: 2623 Kudos: 2462 Votes: 337 Registered: 29-Mar-2003	But, before you bump up your schools what is the size of your tank? You really don't want to overcrowd it...Maybe before you go out and get more fish, how about a bigger tank!?!? Heidi "I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom."

Zebra Danios are active schooling fish that should be in a group of 6 or more. The tetras are schooling fish also. I'd fill out your schools, ditch the silver dollar, and then maybe add some bottom dwellers, such as cories. [/font] -Formerly known as the Ferretfish
