90l planted tank require more fish but which ones
current residents 5 neons,2glowlight2cherry barb 3male platy 1rosy barb 1 angel 2 red eye
fancy more community of different types
its a peaceful setup since i lost 3 tiger barbs a while ago
ideas please more community or something altogether different
thanks
 
Dimensions?

If it was my tank, this is what I would do..
* 10 neons
* 6 glowlight tetras OR cherry barbs OR rosy barbs OR red eye tetras (although I think I would prefer another 6 neons, myself)
* 3 male platys
* 1m 2f Apisto cacatuoides OR Apisto agassizii
* 1m dwarf gourami OR 1m 2f honey gourami
* 8-10 dwarf Corys (if sand) OR 6 Otos

..because schooling fish do better in schools, a breeding group of Apistos would be more interesting than a single angel and you currently don't have any surface fish, nor bottom fish. Water parameters permitting, of course.
 
its a 90l tank quite like the sound of all that where would i be able to see pictures of those you have mentioned
its gravel not sand

i just googled all those and got pics any other ideas then
 
Then definitely Otos over Corys.

I was asking about dimensions because a 90 litre tank can be 3ft long and short or 1.5ft long and tall; it matters for many fish how much horizontal swimming space they have.
 
ok just want to repeat what i said above with bit more info 5neons 1 rosy barb 2 glowlight 2cherry barb
2 red eye 3male platy 1 angel
its a 90l
1.5ft long and tall tank planted
since i lost 3 tiger barbs the community has come alive none are hiding away anymore from the aggressors
had a look at pics of suggested stock up fish and was after more colour,
just want as many suggestions for stock up ideas but trying to get more diff species in but keeping it friendly thanks

Colour depends on how well you look after the fish as much as anything else. If you want colour, a tank full of different coloured guppies? But they don't mix well with anything else.
There are not really that many fish who live on their own and are suitable for a tank that size.
 
hmm frustrating will give it some more thought thanks
