Aquarium Advice Addict
We have a 90g with a 29g sump, so massive filtration and great water quality. We're close to being full but we recently had to return a school of 10 white fin tetras because they were LITERALLY stressing and nipping our cories to death!! (RIP Ziggy ). We're down to 6 of our 10 cories and one is ailing in a hospital tank
Here's what we have:
10 Cardinal Tetras
10 Black Harlequin Rasboras
6 Boesemani Rainbows
1 Angelfish
5-6 Spotted Cories
7 Dwarf Cories
6 Mystery Snails
Once our tank is matured (It's only had fish for 3 weeks) we'll be getting a blue ram.
Meanwhile, our mids feel really empty with the loss of the white fin tetras (good riddance, jerks). I'm trying to think of... something to go there that doesn't take up a lot of space and won't add too much bioload. With the blue ram we'll be at 92% according to aqadvisor when the fish are grown. So any schools of large fish are out of the question.
Is there another "showpiece" fish that would fit in, to just have 1?
Should I just add a few more cardinals maybe?
We like fish that are colorful, nothing "plain" or silver. I admit it, I'm a bit of a magpie that way.
Or maybe we just won't add anything. The tank dynamic improved significantly when the White Fin Terrors went away.
