Hi all
looking for some stocking ideas for a 160-200 ltr tank,but must include some rainbowfish,
dont know what rainbows yet,so could do with some ideas on these too.
looking for colourful fish to occupy top,middle and bottom,look forward to seeing your ideas.
thanks.

How about:

2 Golden Wonder Panchax
6-8 Praecox Rainbows
Trio of red eye swordtails
6 Angelicus botia

You could get a largish group of the smaller rainbows in a tank that size. Perhaps dwarf neon rainbows or threadfin rainbows? A group of 9 or 12 would look really good. That would give you room for 6 corys on the bottom and an angel or perhaps a couple of golden wonder panchax for the top of the tank? Although you'll be tempted by the boesemani rainbows, your tank is likely to be too small for them, they need at the very least a 4fter. Rainbows go best in planted tanks too so you may want to consider that. This is a really good site which drobbyb recommended to me.

Crossed post. That's spooky Davo86! We both have brilliant taste!
