But be careful with angels, they've been known to munch on little neons if they're big enough. Any ideas on what you'd like to have? Best bet is to take a trip down to your LFS and tank browse. When you find something you like, write it down, and we can try to help stock the tank with you according to that. HTH -Formerly known as the Ferretfish

A centerpiece fish depends on what you like and what's available to you locally. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean
