Suggestions For Top Feeders

hatchetfish are good top dweller's but that to depends on what you have already in your tank.
i've had hatchetfish in with a rather large angel, platties, red tail shark and a dwarf gourami without any issue's.
 
here is what i have in the tank so far
1 BGK - just a little guy
6 black skirt tetras
6 lemon tetras
2 blue white tipped rainbow sharks
6 ghost shrimp
1 paradise gourami
and 3 synadontis once they get well

i do plan on getting a larger tank at some point in the some what near future
 
the perfect thing would be zebra danios which come in many shades and a rare yellow morph is available (can't spell it, i know).
i watch them for about 5 minutes every time i go past the tank, they're always playing (first time i saw them playing i thought thay where fighting, but don't worry). thay do well in groups of 4-6 or more and a ph of 7.5 is what i keep mine in but thay are very very very hardy so any water conditions are fine .what other people say about danios (very helpful).
 
Guppies tend to feed from the top although they'll swim at all levels of the tank. Hatchets are stunning fish which I may add to my own tank at some point. Make sure you have a good lid if you get any as this is one of the few freshwater fish that can actually fly!
