ghostfish![]() ![]() Hobbyist Posts: 101 Kudos: 79 Votes: 4 Registered: 23-Nov-2004 ![]() | I have a heavily decorated 8 foot tank containing 6 15cm clown loaches 2 adult blue acaras 1 20cm black knife ghostfish and 2 15cm synodontis catfish but all of them seem to stay down low and only one would be seen at a time. my question is what middle to high level schooling fish coud be housed in here, so It looks not as fishless?????? |

superlion![]() ![]() Mega Fish Posts: 1246 Kudos: 673 Votes: 339 Registered: 27-Sep-2003 ![]() | congo tetras another possiblity, and less likely to be nippy. Having a school of fish may help your other fish come out more as well. Many fish look out at schoolers for distress signals and if all is well they come out. ><> |

ghostfish![]() ![]() Hobbyist Posts: 101 Kudos: 79 Votes: 4 Registered: 23-Nov-2004 ![]() | congo tetra maybe? I do'nt think hatchet fish are a good idea as my fish would stress them to death. and tiger barbs would certainly be eaten by my 20cm male blue acara. I placed 15 5cm feeder barbs and they were gone overnight. the fish have to be atleast 7.5 cm. ![]() |
ACIDRAIN![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Moderator Posts: 3162 Kudos: 1381 Votes: 416 Registered: 14-Jan-2002 ![]() | Congo Tetras, Red eyed tetras, and most all of the rainbow fish with the exception of the blue eyes, would all do great in that tank. And you can mix the tetras with the rainbows, as well as you can mix the rainbows with each other. HTH.... There is always a bigger fish... |
