Hey everyone,
I have room for 1-2 more smallish fish in my community tank, and I'm hoping to add some color! Some of the most beautiful fish (my opinion) are killifish, but I can't find a lot of information on how they do in community tanks. There are some opinions on the web, but little first hand experience.
So my question: how do killifish generally do in community tanks?
Here are a few killifish that I really like (I'm not sure how many are readily available in stores, but they are my favorites after an hour of browsing):
Fundulopanchax sjoestedti - Killifish Species Profile
Aphyosemion striatum - Killifish Species Profile
Simpsonichthys magnificus - Killifish Species Profile
Nothobranchius rachovii - Killifish Species Profile
Aphyosemion bualanum - Killifish Species Profile
My community tank includes:
1 angel
2 bolivian rams
1 albino bnp
3 otto cats
1 neon dwarf gourami (getting him wednesday)
6 furcata rainbows
If anyone out there has experience with killies in communities, or killi advice in general, I'd really appreciate the input!
Thanks
