Hi all,
Was looking for some suggestions for one final centre piece fish to add to my current setup as follows:
123 litre (32.5 gal) (tank setup and cycled for over a year and temp at 26 Celsius/79 Fahrenheit)
32.5"/82cm x 15.75"/40cm x 15.35"/39cm LxWxH
5 x corydoras
2 x otocinclus
2 x honey gourami
3 x bolivian rams (two have paired off but they generally dont fight apart from while breeding)
6 x cardinal tetra
2 x male guppies
The only thing I feel its missing is a colourful, slightly larger centre piece fish but am just aware I dont want to upset the peace in the tank that currently exists. I love the rams but the middle/upper tank seems a little empty (apart from the honey gouramis). I have had 3 successive powder blue gouramis over the last year and they have all gotten on really well and then died of iridovirus. I cant face another one as it seems almost impossible to get them without the virus now. I had considered a blue acara but I have also read reports they might bully the rams as they often claim territory at the bottom of the tank.
Would appreciate any suggestions! Thanks
