Aquarium Advice Regular
i am planning what i want for stocking my tank . my tank is a 55g tall hex tank . I am gona be up front i want COLOR . meaning i want color and movement in the top /middle/bottom of my tank . plus color to make it look nice and not bland.
I've had experience with :
gold fish -
also koi < - didn't know i had koi til i read up on forums i just thought they were plain old big as heck Gold fish who knew??
japanesse fighting fish (2) but never at the same time
tetra's
neon's (blue)
barbs
pink kissers.
Also had a algae eater which grew queit big ----didn't know the breed would grow big like that.
at the time just about all these were in a 10g at one point or another except for the japanesse fighting fish .
i've done some looking around this stock is for my 55g hex .
im looking at these:
tiger barb -
Rosey Barb -
Rainbow Shark
sword tails ?
gaint danios --
ZEBRA danios.
Now i read that some of these like the same water temps i find that a capatable thing . But unsure if i can mix any of these guys together .
I also am CONSIDERING angel fish. I'd just get 2 .. I DO want some schooling fish and i am gona get a algae eater as well - but not a big one - or maybe a clown loach.
I want some recommendations please - and please be nice about it something that isn't to difficult to maintain and not a real budget buster .
my goal is :
Have A Community tank
Have color top /middle /bottom
Have a vissually stimulating tank .
and most of all to have FUN !!!
