I would like to add some moving color to my tank. I thought a school of 25 Neon Tetras would be perfect. Apparently I was wrong. Six days ago I put them in my tank and someone is picking them off. There are only 8 left tonight.

My Tank:
  • 110G Tall
  • Fully planted with CO2
  • 1 x Angelfish (3" body)
  • 1 x Ropefish (14")
  • 2 x Clown Loach (2.5")
  • 1 x Bala Shark (4")
  • 2 x Pleco (2")
  • 1 x Pleco (6")

I believe the Ropefish is picking them off at night. After the Neons started disappearing I thought about maybe growing the Neons a bit larger in another tank. What do you all think? Any suggestions for another school of fish?

Try giant danios they get up to 4 inches and decent coloring
 
I really like the idea of rainbows or danios. What size schools should I get? Gouramis would be nice but I'm afraid they would get too big as a school or wouldn't swim around much.

Maybe 10-12 of the danios
