Went to my LFS a few days ago and found Golden Wonder Kilifish and decided I really want to get one now. I did a little google work and there suggested for a 20 gallon tank and are usually peaceful to all fish (except for squabbles amongst its on species). I think I have enough room left for one more fish in my 30 gallon tank but want to see what peoples opinions are. Also has anyone kept one of these before?

30 Gallon: Planted

7 oto
1 BN
6 Pepered Cory
4 Molly
7 Bloodfin tetra
1 ADF
? Upside Down Catfish (bought 3 month or 2 ago and never saw since, think I saw one the other day but cant be sure).

Tank itself is looking pretty good:

So opinions?
 
They should be fine with everything in your tank however remember that these are a predatory species and so if you add anything too small to the tank they will soon be eaten.

They are also immediate top dwellers that spend 90% of their time just under the waters surface and therefore require areas of cover such as tall plants in the corners or better yet a variety of floating plants such as frogbit or salvinia natans
 
I have wrote various articles to for members on TFF regarding this species.
Check out the Killifish Resource centre.
