Stocking Suggestions

[Gizz4mo1]

I have two tanks...
1. 37 gallon rectangle with a pleco, rainbow shark, 2 mollies, 3-5 babies, plants, 2 moss balls
2. 27 gallon cube with 2 platies, 5 babies, 3 shrimp, snail, bristlenose pleco, plants, 1 moss ball
Any suggestions about what else would make good tankmates? I orignally had the platies in the 37 tank but my shark kept biting their fins....she has never attacked any others, but now I'm concerned about what fish I put in there with her.

Is your Rainbow sharks still a juvenile? They become territorially agressive as they mature ... A 55gal is the minimum I recommend for them ... With lots of DW, plants and rocks to set territories for it to claim .. If you haven't already.

She is about 4 in. and she has staked 2 different places as hers. She only bothered the platies though. Didnt even eat my babies I have. I figured she just didnt like their color. She even leaves my shrimp alone. If she gets worse (I dont think she will) I'll pass her to a friend of mine who has a 100 gallon tank.

37 is really small for here. If she gets too big or aggressive make sure you give her to a good home. And add an angelfish!
