55g

[Shawn]

I have a 55g tank and it is compeltly set up, and I am wondering what fish to put in. I really like angel fish, Coolie Loaches, Clown Loaches, Dwarf, Pearl, and kissing gouramis, cardinal and neon tetras, and black ghosts . I am just wondering how much of each fish i can put in to where the aggresion isnt horrible lol.

When you say completely set up i presume that you have given the tank time to go through its cycle so i'll go straight to the fish.You cant keep angels with gouramis or neons they will fight with the gouramis and eat the neons,also you could only keep one male female pair in a 55g or you will have WWIII going on.The black ghosts you mentioned i presume you are thinking of black ghost knife fish,this fish can get to 20" (50cm) and when full grown will require a tank larger than a 55g in fact a 75g would be the smallest you could house one in,so if you get one you would have to be able to upgrade your tank in a few years

Silver Dollars are a good choice for a 55. Platys are a nice community fish that come in a wide array of colors. Neons always seem to be a disappearing fish. You have 10, then 9, then 7..........

Those are the fish i like the most, i also like bala sharks alot, and one thing i want to say, my parents had a 75g tank with about 6 angels and they had kissing gouramis, bala sharks, and loaches, and a bunch of other fish, and nothing died... i guess taht is a fish personality thing . If those dont work than can u recommend something?
