I had an albino but it died a couple of weeks ago because my heater packed in, he was about 4-5 years old and about 6-7 inches long!!

But man yours was huge!! Ill have to have a word next time i go down see if they'll swap or take him back.. any advise if they refuse? they can be a bit funny sometimes depending who's on!

Wouldnt mind something along the lines of a flying fox, or a snail eating fish maybe a puffer?

i would get at least 3 more albino corys or bronze corys as they are probably albino/bronze corys. a puffer really belongs in a species tank as they are very messy and terirorial and i think a flying fox/false SAE/SAE (similar fish) would need more room due to its fast swimming nature. i also agree about the gibbicep as they get too big and also congo tetras get fairly big too dont they...?

But they need to be in schools. They are shy fish who will be really stressed out in a group of only 3. I think you need a bigger tank for congos.

would congo tetras not school with other breeds of tetra? ie: neons>?

 

[fishyfeet]

no, its best not to mix different size tetras together, the congos would chase and may eat neons if they could. di
