Type and number of fish

[phoenix]

Actually I would like to suggest you look into rams and kribs they are colorful little cichlids that go very well into most community tanks. Unlike what St Cichlid said not all cichlids are killing machines. These dwarfs stay small, are colorful and quite peacefull.

I am very fond of the blue and gold rams personally, and intend to get some myself in the future as soon a I get another tank I can put them in.

Look around on the net and see what fish float yours and your daughters boat and let us know we can then tell you what will go with what.
