Hi folks,
I was hoping for a little advice as I'm reletively new to fish keeping.
I have set up a new tank, and after a month I have introduces eight red eye tetra, which seem fine and healthy, and I am considering adding another four in a month or so.
I understand these fish can be a little "Nippy". I was hoping for a little advice on which species would make good tank mates for the tetra's in a few months. Would swordtails be unacceptable for example?
Also I would like something like an algae eater, possibly some kind of loach that would be happy with these fish.
The tank is 100 litres (UK), which is about 26.5 US gallons I think. It has a fine gravel substrate (no undergravel filter, heard they were a pain), internal filter, two air bricks, and six plants. The tank is heated and is currently at 25C, which the tetra's seem happy with.
Any advice would be welcome, thank you in advance.
