Please Recommend A Fish!

[Aquagurl]

Hello!
I've looked at my aquarium recently and thought that it could use a couple more fish. So, do you have any suggestions on fish that will add color to the aquarium, are peaceful, and affordbale? Thanks!

A pair of Bolivian Rams!

Thats a much better idea than mine.

Zebra danios are great, though I'm not sure if they would nip too much at the guppies. (I have kept them together before with no problems, though I think some sources say they shouldn't be together.)

Best of luck!

I wouldn't bother, the betta would either:

kill

OR

be killed

Just a word of warning, Red Eyed Tetra (Moenkhausia sanctaefilomenae) can grow rather large compaired to the usual tetra species.. around 3"

I had a large number of them in a tank at my previous work and they grew huge after a year or so.. and I found them slightly aggressive once fully grown. But as the others have stated all the Tetra family and Corydoras family do better in larger numbers and look amaizing in groups, so increasing your numbers would be a good plan rather than adding additional species.


Just a thought..

My advice is to get more of what you already have.

 

[SiriusStarr]

Definitely up your numbers, and I'd think about taking the red eye back if you dont want to up the number of that one, because as mentioned they do get rather large and they are a bit on the agressive side at full grown

 

[timmystood]

Yup, it's all about getting the numbers up! Really, tetra's will want to be kept in groups of 6-10 and Corys should be in groups of 4+
