I was going to suggest a group of endlers, small but very pretty and interesting to watch displaying to each other.
My local p@h has started to stock shrimp - they don't always have a clue what they are tho, some inventive names for plain old amanos!
how many endlers would you suggest, or would a mix of rasboras and endlers be more suitable? obviously i would have to go for all male endlers as i couldnt host fry!
Males are nicer to look at anyway! I would put 6 or 7 endlers in. I've only ever kept harlequin rasboras but I've always been a believer in keeping shoaling fish in larger groups, it looks nicer and as there's safety in numbers you see more natural behaviour. Endlers on the other hand, while appreciating each other's company, don't need to be in a shoaling group so would be just as happy in a group of 3 as they would be 6. Also I think rasboras, like danios, appreciate more swimming room.
Personal opinion, but I think 6 or 7 endlers with a nice dark substrate and some bushy plants (real or fake) would look lovely in the Edge. They are very colourful, come in different types, and have a bit more personality than rasboras.
ive just bought a great looking fine black gravel so thats a start! looking at plants at the moment! But my head is fried tryin to decide on what fish to get!
