I have a 55 gallon tank up and running. I have fish in it. But I made a mistake and bought some fish and then looked them up. This is what I have.
1 Black Neon
2 Congo Tetra's
2 Pristella Tetra's
2 Zebra Danios
1 Red Tailed Shark
1 Albino Bala Shark (I did not know at the time he got up to 15" the pet store did not tell me this)
After setting it all up I just bought the top 2 fish to make sure they would live (little paranoid). After a week of them being fine I moved in the rest of the fish. They all seem to be living fine together thus far. One of the Danios keeps all the other fish mostly on one side of the Aquarium (cept the 2 sharks) when i have just one light one. Guess it likes the light to itself? I don't mind getting rid of fish I just want to get a few more that are all going to be happy together. I am new to this. My wife had a 10 gallon tank with some barbs in it that I got bored of and when we moved we got the 55 gallon instead.
So if I could get some hints, advice or whatever, of other kinds of fish i should get that are fun and colorful and if i should get rid of any.
I wouldn't mind keeping the bala shark till he got bigger and then get rid of... dunno if that's a good idea or not.
Thanks guys! I am excited to see what happens with my tank!
