rainbow fish

[HeatherW]

HI, just got my 90 gallon cycled and am finalizing my stocking list. on my list are bosemani rainbow fish. I also saw some turquoise rainbow fish. will these two school together or will each "color" school separately?

proposed stock - 90 gallon tank, running 2 aquclear 110s

2 german blue ram
2 powder blue dwarf gourami
2 molly
15 harlequin rasbora
5-7 zebra loach
5 bosemani rainbow

can I add more? can I add 5 turquoise rainbow? will the turquoise school with the bosemani? and lastly... should i get 5 or 7 of the zebra loach?

I think you could add the rainbows. Also if the zebras are schoolers (Im not very familiar with them) then the more the merrier. Its gonna be a cool tank!

so can anyone tell me will the bosemani rainbows and the turquiose rainbows school together or separately?

Idk if this will help much, but at my good lfs they keep the bosemanis and the turquoise in separate tanks. Not sure why. The turquoise and the Australians are kept together though, and they always seem to be schooling together. Hope it helps a little. :-/

Rainbows aren't tight schoolers. They will probably all hang out together.
