 | Need Centerpiece fish |
RESET Fingerling Posts: 17 Kudos: 17 Votes: 0 Registered: 18-Aug-2004   | I have a 40 breeder with 18 white clouds, a chineese algae eater and a RTBS. I would like a centerpiece fish to inhabit the upper half of the tank. The tank is asian only (except for the algae aeater that is from india, I got the wrong one. I wanted a siameese) I have no problem keeping a labrinth fist but I want something colorfull and a little larger that will not eat the WCMMs. Any suggestions? |

I've never kept RTBS but I'd think since they're mostly bottom dwellers that should'be be a problem. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean |

| iltat Mega Fish Posts: 1076 Kudos: 1216 Votes: 0 Registered: 14-Oct-2002 | 1)I thought India was still part of Asia...  2)My history with RTS has found them to pick on dwarf gouramis, but the possibility of a larger gourami may work... 3)I'd get a different algae eater than that CAE since he'll get huge and mean with time (possibly a Hillstream/Pakistani Loach?) PM/email/msg me if you have any questions/comments regarding me or my knowledge or if you want me to read a thread. |

| ctt33 Enthusiast Posts: 154 Kudos: 148 Votes: 0 Registered: 14-May-2004 | I would also recommend the pearls. I have 2 and they are excellent. I have also heard that can live over 7 years. |
