In that size of a tank, it's only natural to add more neons .

Believe me, you'd be much happier with a larger school. I wish I allowed for a big school of rummies in my 55. Get more neons instead.

If you want, though, you could get another school. *shrug* up to you.


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.

I'm not a great fan of Neons, but in your case, i would get 6 more Neons. The bigger the shoal is, the more happy they are.

I cannot wait till i buy more Rummies for my tank.
